Cube Chamber Box Testing
Based on other experimentations, the testing of materials was conducted under multiple frequencies to test how well it would perform under different noise conditions. This can help further fine-tune the product to fit a variety of environments and conditions
Sound Transmission Loss (STL) Test
The proper testing method to get a Sound Transmission Class (STC) Rating should be used in order to properly compare it against the standard STC ratings of other products.
Impact Sound Insulation Test
Impact noise, such as footsteps or dropping objects, can travel through floors and walls This test evaluates the panel's ability to reduce impact noise transmission. A source of impact noise is introduced on one side of the panel, and measurements are taken on the other side to determine the reduction in impact noise
Field Tests
Installing panels in real-world settings and conducting listening tests can provide valuable feedback on their practical effectiveness This involves measuring sound levels before and after installation and gathering subjective opinions on sound quality and reduction.
Flammability and Safety Tests
