Abstract
A light transmitting panel composed of at least two panes held in spaced relation by a spacer assembly to define at least one space between panes is given improved sound damping properties by giving such space a thickness of greater than 9mm, by causing the space between panes to be sealed from the external atmosphere, and by filling this space with a gaseous medium composed of air and at least one other gas, the air constituting at least 30%, by volume, of the medium, and whose composition is such that the velocity of sound propagation therethrough differs by at least 5% from that in dry air at the same pressure and temperature as the medium.
