Improving Building Floor Acoustics with Innovative Inorganic Sound Insulation Coating
Floor impact sound insulation is essential for improving living environments and has become a mandatory requirement for green buildings in Southern China. This study introduces an innovative inorganic sound insulation coating technology for enhancing building floor acoustic performance. Through comprehensive laboratory experiments and field tests, we evaluated inorganic coatings of 3 mm and 5 mm thickness, comparing their performance against traditional methods, including organic coatings and soundproof mortar. Standardized impact sound pressure level measurements, conducted in accordance with the China GB/T 50121 standard, demonstrated significant acoustic improvements. Laboratory testing revealed impact sound reductions of 6–7 dB and 9–10 dB for the 3 mm and 5 mm inorganic coatings, respectively, while field applications of the 3 mm coating achieved an average reduction of 14.3 dB. The inorganic coating exhibited superior performance characteristics compared to both organic coatings and soundproof mortar in terms of sound insulation efficiency, fire resistance, and application feasibility, demonstrating particularly effective attenuation in the mid- to high-frequency range. This investigation presents an innovative, cost-effective, and environmentally sustainable solution for improving floor sound insulation in green buildings.
