absorption

Updated: August 3, 2018 by Lisa League

absorption

In the science of acoustics, sound is energy.

To stop this energy from spreading, absorptive panels convert that energy to heat through friction.

The absorption coefficient of an acoustical product will determine the level and quality of absorption. Absorption can be applied to fixed wall or ceiling elements.
