The present invention relates to polyurethane foam materials with sound insulating and vibration damping properties. They are obtainable by reacting a polyisocyanate or polyisocyanate prepolymers with an excess of polyols or a mixture thereof while maintaining an NCO index of .ltoreq.80, in particular .ltoreq.70 and as a result they have an adhesive (frictional) surface and are further characterized by a density of 80 to 250 kg/m.sup.3, a modulus of elasticity less than 300 OOO N/m.sup.2 and a loss factor of at least 0.4. The production is preferably done by adding the reaction components (polyol system on the one hand and polyisocyanate system on the other) to the mixture head of an RIM machine. The polyurethane soft foam materials with an adhesive surface according to the invention are particularly suitable for use as vibration damping sound insulation systems in automobiles.
Polyurethane foam materials with sound insulating and vibration damping properties, obtainable by reacting a polyisocyanate or polyisocyanate prepolymer with an excess of polyols or mixtures thereof whilst maintaining an NCO index of .ltoreq.80, for the purpose of obtaining an adhesive surface and further characterized by a density of 80 to 250 kg/m.sup.3, a modulus of elasticity of <300,000 N/m.sup.2 and a loss factor of at least 0.4.
An article of manufacture comprising a polyurethane soft foam material with an adhesive surface adhered to a substrate as an insulation system for damping sound insulation, where said substrate optionally contains a layer selected from the group of a heavy layer or a carpet.
