(北京，2009年2月23日) 來自巴斯夫的特殊泡沫材料巴數(shù)特®在國家游泳中心內(nèi)為頂尖運(yùn)動員營造了更為安靜的比賽環(huán)境。
該材料不僅能夠吸收噪聲，還具有防火和環(huán)保的特點(diǎn)。國家游泳中心（水立方）內(nèi)設(shè)有一種經(jīng)過特殊設(shè)計的走道，或稱“馬道”，其外側(cè)鋪設(shè)了巴數(shù)特®面板。除了吸聲功能，巴數(shù)特®面板還與建筑物的設(shè)計完美契合，并且滿足嚴(yán)格的環(huán)保要求。 同時，它還兼具承重、阻燃及耐高濕等特點(diǎn)。
“來自觀眾與音響設(shè)備的密集聲浪會給運(yùn)動員造成不必要的壓力，分散注意力。高質(zhì)量的吸聲設(shè)施構(gòu)成了比賽場館內(nèi)極為重要的設(shè)計元素，這不僅對于運(yùn)動員來說有明顯的不同，而且能夠提升場館的整體美學(xué)效果，”巴斯夫巴數(shù)特®全球業(yè)務(wù)管理負(fù)責(zé)人Christof Moeck博士表示。
“能參與水立方的創(chuàng)新設(shè)計我們感到很自豪。巴斯夫?qū)⒗^續(xù)致力于與行業(yè)內(nèi)的伙伴進(jìn)行密切合作，提供高質(zhì)量的產(chǎn)品與量身定制的解決方案，為中國建筑業(yè)在設(shè)計創(chuàng)新、功能完善與環(huán)保等方面的提高做出貢獻(xiàn)?！卑退狗蛉蚋呒壐笨偛?，大中華區(qū)管理董事會董事鄭大慶博士表示。
創(chuàng)新的隱形覆層支撐結(jié)構(gòu)
巴數(shù)特®是一種具有阻燃特性的三聚氰胺樹脂泡沫，以其出色的聲學(xué)特性而著稱。由于具有細(xì)密的開孔泡沫結(jié)構(gòu)，它的吸聲效果在中高頻范圍內(nèi)尤佳。值得一提的是，這種輕型材料非常易于加工安裝。采用巧妙的方式在天花板下的通風(fēng)管道周圍包裹巴數(shù)特®覆層，可以隱藏覆層的懸吊結(jié)構(gòu)。
整套結(jié)構(gòu)由不同大小的巴數(shù)特®面板構(gòu)成，其中一些面板的跨度超過兩米。 固定跨度如此長的巴數(shù)特®面板需要使用管材對其進(jìn)行加固。這樣就產(chǎn)生了一種既具有足夠硬度又能根據(jù)濕度變化伸縮的新穎結(jié)構(gòu)?？偛吭O(shè)在上海的安科公司對巴數(shù)特®面板進(jìn)行了加工，以使其滿足上述需要。
巴數(shù)特®廣泛的應(yīng)用領(lǐng)域
由于巴數(shù)特®具有多種優(yōu)異的特性，這種產(chǎn)品被應(yīng)用于建筑與航天器等各種領(lǐng)域。它曾被用來保護(hù)由阿麗亞娜5型火箭送入太空的高靈敏衛(wèi)星。自2004年以來，這種用途廣泛的三聚氰胺樹脂泡沫還被用于制造飛機(jī)的阻燃座椅。不久后，由美國波音制造的新型787夢幻客機(jī)也將采用這種材料。

BASF provides sound protection at Beijing "Water Cube"
Lightweight BASF specialty foam provides conductive environment for optimal swimming performance at National Aquatics Center
Beijing, China – February 23, 2009 – BASF's specialty foam Basotect® is being used in the National Aquatics Center (NAC) in Beijing, helping provide a quieter environment for top swimmers.
The foam was installed as an acoustic insulation that is flame-retardant and environmentally friendly. The National Aquatics Center, popularly known as the "Water Cube", has been fitted with a specially developed walkway structure lined with lightweight Basotect® panels. The panels not only provide sound protection but also blend in with the architectural design and meet stringent environmental requirements. Moreover it is load-bearing, flame-retardant and able to withstand high levels of humidity.
"The intense energy of sound waves from spectators and audio equipment can cause undue stress on the mental acuity of athletes. High quality soundproofing at the competition stadium is a crucial design consideration that can make an enormous difference to athletes while enhancing the overall aesthetics of the facility,” says Dr. Christof Moeck, head of Global Business Management Basotect®, BASF.
“BASF is proud to be a part of the innovative design of the NAC and we are committed to working closely with our industry partners to provide products and tailor-made solutions that contribute to China construction industry’s innovative design, functionality, and environmental standards,” says Dr. Zheng Daqing, Senior Vice President, BASF Group and Member of BASF Greater China Country Board.
Novel and invisible cladding construction
This inherently flame-retardant BASF melamine resin foam stands out for its extraordinary acoustic properties. Thanks to its open-cell and fine foam structure, the sound-absorption values in the medium and high frequency ranges are particularly good. Moreover, this lightweight material is easy to process. For instance, the ventilation conduits under the ceiling were wrapped in such a way that the suspension structure for the cladding is not visible.
The installation is made of Basotect® panels of different sizes, some of which span more than two meters. Securing these panels over such a distance called for their reinforcement with tubes. This gave rise to a novel construction that is sufficiently stiff and can expand in response to humidity fluctuations. Entech, headquartered in Shanghai, processed the Basotect® panels for this purpose.
Basotect®, the jack-of-all-trades
Thanks to its wide array of favorable properties, this product is used in applications as diverse as buildings and spacecraft. Basotect® protects the sensitive satellites that the Ariane 5 launcher delivers into space. Since 2004, the versatile melamine resin foam has also been employed in fireproof airplane seats and will soon be used in the new Dreamliner 787 from American aircraft manufacturer Boeing.
