Desarrollo de paneles a partir de la caracterización de las fibras del culmo de Zea Mayz (maíz) y hojas de musa X paradisiaca (plátano) como materiales absorbentes al sonido

Abstract

The present project proposes the development of an acoustic insulation panel in which fibers of Musa x paradisiaca (plantain plant) and the culm of Zea mays (Maize plant) are used. Acoustic insulation has high costs which do not allow it to be affordable for the whole population and in the second stay the sources of renewable energy are not yet fully exploited, which led to the idea of taking advantage of the biomass produced by Musa x paradisiaca (Banana plant) and Zea mays (maize) cane, since it was shown that only 5% and 50% of these materials were used, as has been analyzed at the moment there are many acoustic insulation made with natural fibers Trying to be more and more friendly with the environment; The development of the panel initially a physical characterization of the fibers of Musa x paradisiaca (plantain plant) and the culm of Zea mays (Maize plant) will be carried out in order to analyze the water absorbing capacity, the moisture content and Absorption of moisture; Then proceed to the development of the sound insulation panel of 61cm x 61cm will function as a Helmholtz resonator box which will be subjected to acoustic tests to identify its sound insulation capacity and absorption coefficient; For the development of the project is based on a quantitative and qualitative methodology based on different protocols of tests and finally consider how the installation of the panel will be compared to existing acoustic
