Abstract
A formable sheet-form textile material for lining noise-affected rooms, particularly the passenger compartment of motor vehicles, consisting of a fabric, a needled or tufted layer as the visible surface, at least one thermoformable and foam-backable layer and a foamed backcoating, in which the layer serving as the visible surface consists of needlefelt or of a tufted surface (2) needled into felt as the backing layer (1), to the back of which a layer (3) of foamed latex, an impermeable barrier layer (4) and, optionally, the foamed backcoating (5) are applied. The backing layer may also be a thin layer of a lightly bonded felt onto which a thicker layer of an unbonded felt is laminated by means of a binder which simultaneously binds the needling into the backing layer. The layers have a permeability to sound which continuously decreases from the backing layer (1) to the backcoating (5). The barrier layer (4) is formed by a film or by a coating of unfoamed latex.
