Microperforated panels (MPPs) are recognized as suitable absorbers for noise control applications demanding special clean and health requirements.While it is relatively easy to design single-layer MPPs for sound absorption in one-to-two octave bands at medium-high frequencies, the performance for low frequencies (below 600 Hz) leads to a rather narrow-band absorption, similar to that of a Helmholtz resonator. However, multiple-layer MPPs can be designed as sound absorbers that yield low-frequency absorption in a wide frequency band. Recently, multiple-cavity perforated panels have been proposed to improve the performance of MPPs in the low-frequency range. In this article, the capability of multiple-layer and multiple-cavity MPPs to provide sound absorption at low frequencies is analyzed.

Studies on recycled materials emerged during recent years. This paper investigates samples’ sound absorption properties for panels fabricated of a mixture of paper sludge (PS) and clay mixture. PS was the core material. The sound absorption was measured. We also consider the influence of an air gap between panels and rigid backing. Different air gaps (50, 100, 150, 200 mm) simulate existing acoustic panel systems. Finally, the PS and clay composite panel sound absorption coefficients are compared to those for a typical commercial absorptive ceiling panel. The average sound absorption coefficient of PS-clay composite panels (αavg. in the frequency range from 250 to 1600 Hz) was up to 0.55. The resulting average sound absorption coefficient of panels made of recycled (but unfinished) materials is even somewhat higher than for the finished commercial (finished) acoustic panel (αavg. = 0.51).
