Use: to block transmission noise.

Physical Properties: Non-porous, high density and usually non-fibrous. Barriers are generally flexible or damped. The noise is blocked, reflected adn re-routed in another direction. Barrier materials are tested and rated for their Sound Transmission Loss capability. The number is stated in dB and the higher number signifies the better barrier.

Effectiveness is expressed as STC (Sound Transmission Class).

STC: Single number rating derived from decibel loss data at several frequencies.
