Solutions for NVH:

Soundproofing – Silence under the hood

BASF products can ideally fulfill the rising demand for soundproofing in car construction. The lightweight Basotect^® foam is used for sound insulation in the engine hood cover because of its outstanding acoustic performance, high heat resistance, high fire safety, favorable fogging behavior and chemical resistance.

Elastic foams made with Elastoflex ^® protect against the heat and noise of the engine compartment. They are resistant to high temperatures and reduce unpleasant vibrations.

Chassis – safe and smooth running

Passenger comfort and driving dynamics play a crucial role in the success of a car. BASF products for the chassis offer maximum driving comfort, sportiness and safety. With Cellasto^® damping systems, noise and vibration are effectively reduced, helping improve the overall consumer experience inside a vehicle’s cabin.

Engine cover – lightest engine cover solution on the market

With its open cell flexible foam, Elastofoam^® provides an excellent sound absorbation.

It is combinable with different surface materials, but it is also thermoformable, flame and heat resistant.
