Can the Sound Absorption Coefficient of a Material be user defined?

      Hello Could anyone let me know whether it is possible to input the Sound Absorption Coefficient of a newly created material in ANSYS Harmonic Acoustics?
      I am trying to find out which has the best noise reduction ability out of a set of materials, and so far I only have the Densities and the frequency based Absorption Coefficients of the materials.
      So can I directly give the absorption coefficients into ANSYS?
      If not, could you please suggest possible alternatives to complete my requirement.
      Many Thanks in advance! :)

      You can define the frequency-dependent absorption coefficient using the absorption surface:
