Abstract
Burgeoning challenges related to utilization of various biomass wastes is attracting more attention by the development of several functional materials. The designing of different flexible quieter materials in most of the mechanical and vibrational structural components has put interest in the reduction of noise from different machinery parts. The biomass waste based lightweight and highly efficient sound absorbing material has many significant physical properties compared to the synthetic one. The present work includes synthesis along with acoustic performance analysis of epoxy blended rattan fiber reinforced composites. The analysis showed that the fabricated porous material with sound absorption coefficient of 0.97 can be classified into Class-A type material as per ASTMC423-17 standard. The transmission loss of the fabricated composite rises with fiber composition from 20.3 to 56.9 dB, confirming the non-linear behavior of the generated sound. The unique morphological features supported by reorientation of different functional groups of the cellulosic components facilitate the sound absorption. The biodegradability of the composite around 69% is well supported by thermogravimetric analysis and decrease of thermal conductivity from 0.077 to 0.014W/m.K with increase in fiber content executes good thermal insulating properties. The hardness value of the composite has been observed to be maximum with 20 wt% of the fiber followed by reducing trend with an increase of wt%.
