Thread Starter | Acoustically Transparent Plastic? Is there a plastic that is thin enough to be acoustically transparent? I want to the 703 for my absorbers wrapped in plastic so they can't off-gas whatever it is they normally would. Is there such a thing? |

| off gas? 703 and similar material is safe....no plastic that i know of will work...if sound can get in, then the supposed "off gas" can get out...so kinda pointless anways... just wrap them in fabric and dont worry about it... ![]() edit: heres a thought...if you are worried about "off gas"..then let the insulation sit out in a well ventilated area for a week or 2 prior to wrapping/installing them |

Thread Starter | K thanks, I'm just letting it air out for bit. Anyone ever notice the sort of rotten fish smell from fresh 703? |

| Yep it is something you do have to deal with. We don't use 705 (same as 703 but denser) in our product, but manufacture a different product for someone else and have to let it sit for a while. |
