This paper describes possibilities in the use of recycled rubber granules and textile materials combined with vermiculite panel. The aim of the research is the application of materials that will be absorbing or reflecting sound energy. This objective is based on fundamental physical principles of materials research and acoustics. Method of measurement of sound absorption coefficient is based on the principle of standing wave in the impedance tube. With a sound level meter is measured maximum and minimum sound pressure level of standing wave. From the maximum and minimum sound pressure level of standing wave is calculated sound absorption coefficient αn, which can take values from 0 to 1. Determination of the sound absorption coefficient has been set in 1/3 octave band and in the frequency range from 50 Hz to 2000 Hz. In conclusion are proposed possibilities of application of these materials in terms of their mechanical and physical parameters.

Noise pollution is one of the harmful physical sources in the textile industry, which is among those industries that are faced with noise exposure problems. The results of environmental sound measurements at modern textile mills have shown that the sound pressure level varied from 95 to 130 dB, where the highest sound pressure level was at weaving machines. Textile insulation materials can be fitted in order to decrease sound pollution at a low cost. The objective of this work is to design a sound absorber that can be fixed to the body of the machines, at the point of the noise generation, to reduce noise pollution. Poly(lactic acid) (PLA), which is an environmentally friendly material, was used to produce different samples of meltblown nonwoven absorbers to be used for damping the noise of textile machinery. PLA meltblown nonwoven fabric with the areal density of 16.7 g/m2, average fiber diameter of 1.1 µm, mean pore diameter of 9.8 µm and thickness of 0.27 mm exhibited significant sound absorption. The sample with the smallest average fiber diameter among those investigated had the highest damping effect: 23.95, 41.29 and 29.32 dBA at frequencies of 400, 1000 and 1500 Hz, respectively. Our goal is to have a practical tool that accurately evaluates the absorber sound damping under the actual running conditions of the textile machinery. The design of the absorber from one layer of the PLA meltblown nonwoven over a rigid polyurethane foam sheet had an excellent sound absorption property.

The high sound pressure level generated by impulse noise produced in an indoor shooting range makes it necessary to protect the hearing of the people it affects. Due to the need for verbal communication during training at a shooting range, level-dependent hearing protectors are useful. The objective of this study was to answer the question of whether it is possible to properly protect the hearing of a shooting instructor using level-dependent hearing protectors. The noise parameters were measured in the places where the instructor was present at the shooting range. The division of a specific group of trained shooters into subgroups consisting of three or six simultaneously shooting individuals did not significantly affect the exposure of the shooting instructor to the noise. An assessment of noise reduction was carried out for eight models of earmuffs and two variants of earplugs, using computational methods for the selection of hearing protectors. Among the noise parameters, both the A-weighted equivalent sound pressure level and the C-weighted peak sound pressure level were taken into account. Depending on the assessment criterion adopted, a sufficient reduction in impulse noise was provided by either four or six out of the 10 hearing protectors included in the study.
