Vibrating surfaces are often dampened by applying visco-elastic materials directly to the surface, thus converting the vibration energy to heat. The flexing of the damping material provides the energy dissipation and "decay" to reduce noise. Metal no longer "rings" when it is struck or excited by airborne noise.
Color:
Light beige, non-reflective stipple finish.
Density:
85.3 lb./cu. ft (wet), 72.9 lb./cu. ft. (dry), 350 pentrometer viscosity at 80°F. Sprayable loose paste.
Sanitation:
All components have FDA approval. Vermin resistant.
Chemical Resistivity:
Resists dilute acids, alkalies, grease, gasoline, aliphatic oils. Dried coating will soften with prolonged soaking in water, but will recover after subsequent drying.
Toxicity:
Material Safety Data Sheet (OSHA) available upon request.
Flame Resistance:
- Passes ASTM E162-76
- Flame Spread 0.59
- Smoke Developed 0.1
Temperature Limits:
Useful range of 25° to 120°F; maximum service range of -20° to 120°F. Coating is non-ageing. WARNING: Wet material is an emulsion and therefore should be protected from freezing.
