Closed Cell Foam is the ideal decoupler for barriers and trim panels in a motor vehicle. It will also absorb some very high frequency noise, but let’s not get carried away with that aspect of its use.

When you want to block noise, you need a massive barrier like our Mass Loaded Vinyl Barrier. For a barrier to work well, it should be floated above the substrate to which it is attached. If the substrate has any residual resonance after treating it with CLD Tiles, using CCF as a cushion will stop the resonance from exciting the barrier material. It also creates a more complex path for the sound to travel through, further increasing the effectiveness of the barrier.

When trim panels buzz or rattle, lining them with CCF will isolate them from whatever they are rattling against. Problem solved.

This Vinyl/Nitrile foam is manufactured for Sound Deadener Showdown with some uniquely beneficial characteristics. Most important among them is its ability to resist what is called compression set. Products like these tend to flatten out over time when they are under pressure. This foam has very small cells to resist this. If you’ve ever taken your car apart after applying other CCF and found it as flat as a piece of paper, you will appreciate this feature.
