Chopped Strands for BMC Manufacture
CAMELYAF GLASS FIBER / BMC1(M) chopped strand is made from "E" glass fiber with the following properties
- very good strand integrity
- good distribution of glass fibres in the BMC paste
- good processing
- good mechanical and surface properties
For reinforcement in polyesther moulding compounds where the integrity of the strand bundle assists in achieving a high level of physical properties. The silane based sizing is compatible with polyester resins.
