DURABSORB™

  • High Density Acoustic Ethers That Absorb What Matters

    • FXI acoustical solutions are engineered to perform multiple functions including sound absorption and vibration damping. FXI low-density foams are ideal for sound absorption while higher-density or lower permeability foams work well for damping. Complementing their acoustic capabilities, all FXI foams are moldable and meet various fire and performance requirements. Additionally, these acoustic technologies can withstand varying operating temperatures and offer insulation performance for different industry applications. FXI acoustical solutions provide efficiency, reliability, and predictability in high-stress environments and applications over time, while simplifying handling, manufacturing and assembly, to reduce overall costs for sound and vibration reduction solutions.

      Overview

      Durabsorb™ 100 and Durabsorb™ 200, provide a unique combination of excellent sound absorption characteristics along with vibration damping capabilities through higher density ether formulation. Certified to Department of Transportation FMVSS-302, these foams have superior durability for challenging environments with demanding technical requirements and fit many uses requiring lower frequency absorption. Highly moldable and fabricating ease, Durabsorb™ 100 and Durabsorb™ 200 work well for laminations and multi-size parts due to their structural integrity.

      Benefits

      • High-density leads to durability in use which provides a long service life
