Menzolit® SMC 2400

menzolit® SMC 2400 is a sheet molding compound based on unsaturated polyester resin. The product is glass fiber reinforced and contains mineral fillers. In case of fire the product doesn’t melt, neither does it form droplets nor is smoke generation excessive. The material is compression molded in heated steel molds. It is recommended to work with chrome plated tools. The product contains no halogens or heavy metals nor any candidates from the REACH SVHC list.
