Acoustic fabric is a specialized translucent material. It does not prevent the propagation of waves. This material has many properties and is used in many fields.
Fabric Description
Acoustic fabric is made from polyester by a special interweaving of fibers. This allows sound waves of any frequency to penetrate through the canvas. Only this material has similar characteristics. Other textiles only block the path of sound waves.
Because of this basic property, acoustic material is used to decorate not only columns, but also individual fragments of the system. After all, the fabric creates a favorable environment for the propagation of sound waves of any frequency. In the manufacture of such textiles, fibers of various thicknesses and shades are used. Thanks to this, the assortment of such fabrics is quite large.
Material characteristics
Fabric for speakers should have certain qualities. Among the characteristics of such a material, it is worth highlighting:
- High level of wear resistance.
- Resistance to chemicals.
- High rate of durability.
- Low hygroscopicity. Such a fabric practically does not absorb water.
- Some varieties of material have fire-fighting properties.
Decorative fabric
Acoustic fabric can be sound absorbing and decorative. The latter variety is used in the manufacture of combos, speakers and other elements of the system. It is worth noting that such a material performs several functions at once: decorative and protective. The main requirement for such a fabric is maximum acoustic transparency. In this case, the material should not introduce extraneous sounds, as well as delay waves.
Often, such a fabric for acoustic speakers is replaced by ordinary textiles: synthetic chiffon or viscose. Often, to give the elements an elegant look, a pattern is applied to the material.
Sound absorbing fabric
Such material is usually used to finish the internal structures of acoustic systems, as well as rooms. In this case, the fabric should absorb all noise as much as possible. The material is used to prevent the reflection of sound waves of any frequency. This acoustic fabric is usually very porous, thick and dense. It can be purchased only in specialized stores where technical textiles are sold.
It is worth noting that material of a similar plan is also used in the decoration of vehicles. In particular, to protect the speakers, as well as for the production of fiberglass cases for speakers.
In conclusion
Acoustic fabric is used not only for decoration of columns and rooms. Often such material is used in the manufacture of screens, curtains, original partitions, ceilings. A wide range of fabrics allows you to choose what suits the overall interior design. In addition, canvases of light shades can be applied to any picture and image quality photographs.
