Abstract
A loudspeaker diaphragm, comprising a dome portion located at central position and a suspension ring portion located at edge position; the dome portion and/or the suspension ring portion comprise silk fabric and thermoplastic polyurethane combined with the silk fabric; and the silk fabric is coated with thermosetting adhesive. The method for manufacturing the loudspeaker diaphragm comprises following steps: a. coating the silk fabric with a thermosetting adhesive under a high temperature, and drying the silk fabric; b. hot pressing and combining the silk fabric and thermoplastic polyurethane to form a membrane; c. pressing the membrane to form the dome portion and/or the suspension ring portion. The dome portion, or both the dome portion and the suspension ring portion of the loudspeaker diaphragm comprise silk fabric coated with a thermosetting adhesive and thermoplastic polyurethane. Thus formed loudspeaker diaphragm has good rigidity and damping characteristic, thus improving acoustic performance of the diaphragm.
