Strength and Noise Reduction Properties of Acrylic Windows

Jan. 4, 2011 - PRLog -- The modern world is a jumble of sounds, from honking horns to barking dogs. Acrylic can help make your home or office a sanctuary from the outside world. Eliminating outside noise is a great benefit to installing acrylic windows at work or home. By reducing noise up to 90% at certain frequencies acrylic windows will keep the outside world exactly where it belongs…outside.

By using the same idea as a refrigerator door acrylic windows seal against the frame of an existing window frame creating a gap of air. This gap is what helps keeps the noise out; it allows a space for the sound to dissipate while keeping your home or office quiet. Particular effective range in Hertz (Hz) is around the 1000Hz area which is the lower range of hearing which is associated normally with cars and traffic.

Acrylic windows are made essentially of plastic while offering superb and stunning clarity also offers a resilience that glass cannot offer. Glass does not flex, acrylic windows on the other hand have the ability to flex and maintain its original shape. This flexibility allows for a higher breakage point when compared to glass and can be safer because it will not shatter easily.
