Thin sound-suppressing silk fabric works like noise-cancelling headphones
Researchers in the U.S. have developed an ultra-thin silk fabric embedded with a special, piezoelectric fibre that can vibrate to cancel out noise in a room. If made into drapery, the researchers say it could block noise from adjacent rooms from reaching through. Experiments showed that the fabric with the piezoelectric fibre, which was developed and tested … Read more
