Résumé

This work investigates the links between the microstructure of polyurethane foams and their sound absorbing efficiency, and more specifically the effect of membranes closing the cells. In a previous work, the authors proposed a semi-empirical approach to link the foam microstructure properties, i.e. reticulation rate, strut length and thickness, with its non-acoustic parameters. The study was based on the complete characterization of 15 isotropic polyurethane foams with various cell sizes and reticulation rates (i.e. open pore content). This paper proposes a validation of this semi-empirical model using 3 new polyurethane foams, not used in the first characterization set. More importantly, a simplification is presented to account only for the foam cell size and reticulation rate. Non-acoustic parameters estimated by the micro/macro links are also compared to direct and indirect measurements. It is shown that the proposed expressions associated to the Johnson-Champoux-Allard porous model allow for a good estimation of the sound absorbing behaviour of all tested polyurethane foams, fully reticulated or not.
