Tensotherm is ideal where significant acoustic dampening is desired or
required. The product can block out the sound of a jet taking off, or hold the
sound of rock concert inside. The product’s sound attenuation ability is due to
its Nanogel aerogel core and interior PTFE-coated acoustical membrane liner. It
consists of Cabot’s Nanogel aerogel sandwiched between two layers of structural
PTFE fiberglass membrane. This creates an insulated, energy-efficient inner
layer that maintains translucency and promotes natural daylighting. The fabric
is less than 50 mm thick, yet it more than quadruples the thermal insulation
performance with a value of R-12 and natural light transmission value of 3.5
percent. This durable, fade resistant material also offers maximum moisture
control and superior sound insulation. These performance features are
permanent, so they will not change over time.
