Innovation means a quieter ride
Our automotive foams do a lot more than cushion passengers. Not only do they make cars safer and more comfortable, they also dramatically reduce engine and exterior noise. Making every ride smoother and more relaxing.
AUTOMOTIVE: INNOVATION MEANS A QUIETER RIDE
Qylite® Acoustic Foam Technology
Now more than ever, automakers are striving to produce quieter vehicles to enhance the overall driving experience for the operator and passengers. Vibration tuning, barrier technology and sound absorption are just a few of the techniques used to isolate the passenger compartment from road and vehicle noise. Sound absorption is usually achieved through the use of foam or fiber materials designed specifically to convert incident sound energy into another form. Dense barrier materials can be used in conjunction with absorbers and decouplers to maximize performance by creating a double-wall design.
For our base of automotive customers, using proprietary technology, FXI has developed a family of highly economical polyurethane foam acoustical materials to function in automotive applications. Qylite® foams not only offer excellent sound absorption performance compared to other materials, but also are lightweight and recyclable. A distinct advantage of foam over fibrous acoustic technologies is that Qylite® foams are dimensionally stable over time. This allows the designer to be confident that acoustic performance will not erode due to continued stress or vibration.
Acoustical foam is also being introduced to very diverse industries. Whether your current needs are for automotive, schools, colleges, offices, churches, cinemas, restaurants or even duct work, plenums, ceilings, machinery, aircraft and trains, FXI can help meet your needs.
