Damping
Damping is the dissipation of energy, usually by releasing it in the form of low-grade heat. The loss factor quantifies the level of damping of a material, it is the ratio of energy dissipated from the system to the energy stored in the system for every cycle. Due to corks closed cell structure filled with air, cork ha…
Damping
The dissipation of vibratory energy in solid structures over time and space. It is analogous to the absorption of sound in air.

Insulation Boards
Resilience and sound damping capacity keep out the noise of neighbors, the sound of conversations, and vibrations produced by appliances or air conditioning systems, making your home healthier and more welcoming.

Acoustic Insulation
Cork's air filled closed cell structure enables inherent damping of structural noise transmission, such as step noise and impacts throughout the decking surface and consequently increased acoustic performance.

Why does cork have great potential in the energy sector?
The main characteristics of cork that we can highlight for application in the energy sector, include its negative contribution in terms of CO2, its resistance to extreme temperatures, chemical compatibility and low thermal conductivity, its resilience, and damping properties.

Intro 2
Cork’s closed cell structure, filled with air, contributes to the damping function by dissipating vibration energy, resulting in higher energy loss factors when compared to 100% rubber materials. This dissipation of vibration energy leads to noise reduction, longer machine or tooling life and no transmission to the sur…

Cork composites for high performance
While cork has a higher loss factor than rubber – which is essential to the dampening function and consequent dissipation of energy – anti-vibration rubbers are isolative and offer very little damping. The combination of these two materials as a cork rubber composite brings added characteristics as a vibration isolatio…
