Waste flax fibres were modified by enzymatic treatment, after which they became more short and fine. This form of fibres can create good sound absorption. Preliminary studies concerned an application of cellulose fibres after enzymatic treatment as the filling of thermoplastic sound absorbing composites. The conditions of composite manufacturing process from multilayer structure （matrix nonwoven/submicrofibres layer） were developed. The influence of submicroflbres content in the composite on the scale of the improvement of its sound absorption property was investigated. Results showed that for the same conditions of the composite manufacturing process and similar composite thickness, gradual increase in content of that filling leads to adequately increase in sound absorption coefficient of the composites. The composites could be applied among others to accommodations and transport facilities.展开更多
