SilentFX Noise-Reducing Gypsum Board -CertainTeed • Material Description SilentFX™ is a noise-reducing gypsum board specifically designed for systems requiring high Sound Transmission Control (STC) ratings where acoustic management is needed. Green Glue®, applied between two specially formulated gypsum boards, is a viscoelastic polymer that dampens sound energy and significantly improves sound attenuation through walls and ceilings. SilentFX™ gypsum board is enclosed in a 100% recycled moisture and mold resistant face and back paper. As a result of the inclusion of M2Tech® technology, SilentFX™ also contributes to indoor air quality by providing enhanced moisture and mold resistance. • Advantages • Features Green Glue viscoelas- tic polymer for superior noise damping • SilentFX systems improve sound attenuation with STC rat- ings of 50 and higher. • High STC ratings with fewer layers of gypsum board than tra- ditional assemblies. • Abuse resistant per ASTM C1629. • Low VOC emitting materials – GREENGUARD Gold Certified • M2Tech technology provides ad- ditional zone of protection against moisture and mold. • Achieves best possible score of 10 for mold resistance per ASTM D3273*. • Finishes like regular gypsum board. • Applications With close proximity to the BQE the project site calls for special attention when it comes to the generally high levels (approximately 90 dB) of ambiant noise in the vicinty. In addition the client, a digital music engineer requires a sound studio in the program; This requires for sound control in both direc- tions, prevention from sound entering the space and leaving the space. To remedy this SilentFX noise reducing gypsum board will provide the proper foundational standard in sound transmission control throughout the home.
