The aim of this study was to compile and describe a structured dataset of sound absorption coefficients for laboratory-produced panels made from recycled textile materials. Five types of panels were developed using cotton, polyester, wool, linen, and a mixed composition of textiles. A biopolymer binder was applied to ensure structural stability of the materials. Following careful sorting, shredding, and homogenization of the textile waste, test specimens were prepared and examined under controlled laboratory conditions. The sound absorption coefficients were measured using an AFD 1000 impedance tube in accordance with the ISO 10534-2 standard, across a frequency range from 6.25 to 6393.75 Hz. For each material, three repeated measurements were performed, and mean values were calculated to ensure accuracy and reliability. The resulting dataset contains structured values of sound absorption coefficients, which can be applied in building acoustics modeling, comparative studies with conventional insulation materials, and the development of new sustainable products. In addition, the data can be used in educational contexts and machine learning applications to predict the acoustic properties of recycled textile composites.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/data10120199","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,12,2]],"date-time":"2025-12-02T12:39:43Z","timestamp":1764679183000},"page":"199","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":1,"title":["Sound Absorption Coefficient Data for Laboratory-Produced Sound-Absorbing Panels from Textile Waste"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"10","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0004-9803-7764","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Kristaps","family":"Siltumens","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Scientific Laboratory of Forest and Water Resources, Latvia University of Life Sciences and Technologies, Liela Street 2, LV-3001 Jelgava, Latvia"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-3220-1777","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Inga","family":"Grinfelde","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Institute of Landscape Architecture and Environmental Engineering, Latvia University of Life Sciences and Technologies, Liela Street 2, LV-3001 Jelgava, Latvia"},{"name":"Lietuvos In\u017einerijos Kolegija, Higher Education Institution, Tvirtov\u0117s al. 35, LT-50155 Kaunas, Lithuania"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Raitis","family":"Brencis","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Institute of Civil Engineering and Woodworking, Latvia University of Life Sciences and Technologies, Liela Street 2, LV-3001 Jelgava, Latvia"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Andris","family":"Paeglitis","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Institute of Civil Engineering and Woodworking, Latvia University of Life Sciences and Technologies, Liela Street 2, LV-3001 Jelgava, Latvia"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2025,12,2]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","unstructured":"United Nations (2015).
