SMC—See Sheet-molding compound

PhenoHc sheet-molding compound is seeing increased use in interior and exterior appHcations in mass transit. The trains in service on the English Channel tunnel have several panels made from phenoHc SMC which had to meet the strict European safety standards for fire and smoke generation. [Pg.307]

An SMC is a reinforced plastic compound in sheet form. Most SMCs combine glass fiber with a polyester (TS) resin. Any combination of reinforcement and resin can be produced (see Fig. 6-39). The reinforcements can have continuous long fibers or any size of chopped fibers laid out in a different orientation from that of the resin (see Fig. 6-40). The different orientation makes it feasible to use SMCs on flat to complex-shaped molds (see Fig. 6-41). These SMCs will contain various additives and fillers to provide a variety of processing and performance properties. [Pg.494]
