What Is QuietSound II QuietSound II(TM) Rolled Acoustical Underlayment? QuietSound underlayment is used Underlayment Specifications anywhere a higher level of isolation is required in both Sound Transmission 9MM QUIETSOUND II Class (STC) ratings and Impact Insulation Class (IIC) ratings. A Item Test Standard Rating higher performing underlayment Impact Insulation Class* IIC ASTM E492 48 6” Concrete ASTM E989 like QuietSound is usually required Impact Insulation Class IIC ASTM E492 56 in multi-family housing and other 6”concrete/6” fiberglass commercial applications to achieve a Water Vapor Inverted Water ASTM E96 4.7 field test IIC rating of at least 45. Many Transmission Rate(WVTR) g/m2/24HR residential condominium structures Density Per cubic foot ASTM D3676 45 (pounds) Section 12 and large commercial buildings use 6” Compression Resistance @ 25% (cubic ASTM D3575 65 or 8” thick concrete floors and steel foot density) ASTM D3676 framing so these rating requirements Compression set @25% ASTM D395 10.1% 78° for 22 hr/then release 24 hr are achievable with an underlayment Coefficient of friction Instron Universal ASTM 1894 0.84 wet of a fairly minimal thickness (typically Tester 0.90 dry around 3mm) depending on the flooring Durometer Shore A ASTM D-2240 40 ±5 used on top of the underlayment. For Tensile Strength “Die C” ASTM 412 1.90 Mpa 275 PSI example, tile floors will require a thicker Flammability Pill Test DOC-FF 1-70 Passed (Methanamine) underlayment as they will generate Volatile Organic** Closed Chamber ASTM D5116 SCAQMD considerably more noise than a vinyl Compounds (VOCS) 1.0m ±.05 m/3 ASTM D6196 1168-passed floor or even a hardwood laminate. *Test profile: 1/2” engineered wood over 9mm Quiet Sound II(TM), over 6” concrete. **Test results by Air Quality Sciences available.
