TD13 Damping Sheet

TD13 damping sheet with a self adhesive backing is used for sound and vibration damping and helps protect metal panels from corrosion. The adhesive side is
smooth, allowing good contact with the underlying surface without any air pockets or channels. The product is odourless, wear resistant and waterproof. Both pad
material and adhesive can withstand temperatures between – 30ºC & 90ºC.

Specifications

The acoustic loss factor ‘d’ is used as a measure of sound damping. It states how much vibration energy
(in steel plate for instance) is converted to heat and thereby loses its ability to generate sound. The theoretical
maximum loss factor is 1. An un-damped steel panel 1mm thick has a loss factor of roughly 0.001 at 200 Hz.
Clad with TD13 its loss factor would be 0.14. Another measure of damping capacity is the decay rate.
This defines in dB/sec how fast a sound level attenuates after degeneration has ceased. The decay rate for a
1mtr x 10mm steel strip 200mm long is11 dB /sec. The same strip covered with this product would be 800 dB/sec.

TD13 has a specially developed acrylic self-adhesive backing that provides a smooth face and therefore gives excellent contact with the
surface to be damped. This unique adhesive makes for easy application and will withstand tough environments within a temperature
range of -30°C to +90°C.
