Product Detail

● Designed for class A surface and structural SMC process.
● Coated with a high performance compound sizing compatible with unsaturated polyester resin and vinyl ester resin.
● Compared with traditional SMC roving, it can deliver high glass content in SMC sheets and has good wet-out and excellent surface property.
● Used in automotive parts, doors, chairs, bathtubs, and water tanks and sports apparatus.

PERFORMANCE ATTRIBUTES

● IMPRESSIVE MECHANICAL PROPERTIES
Optimal adherence to the resin matrix, along with excellent wetting characteristics, provides enhanced mechanical properties in semi-structural applications.

● MECHANICAL PERFORMANCE
Optimal adhesion to the Polyolefin resin matrix provides excellent dry-as-molded mechanical properties.

● EXCELLENT PROCESSABILITY
Easy unwinding and chopping, flat lay-down, and uniform dispersion with low fuzz and static allows for high line speeds and thick paste viscosit

● EXCELLENT PROCESSING
Reduced downtime, smoother parts and improved machine efficiencies.
