Rovings for SMC manufacture

CAMELYAF GLASS FIBER / SMC2 multi end roving is made from "E" glass fiber with the following properties

• good strand integrity and choppability
• no static electricity
• no fuzz
• medium soluble
• very good dispersion
• easy wet-out and impregnation
• good mechanical and surface finish properties,

For general purpose and "Low Shrink" SMC applications. The silane based sizing is compatible with polyester resins.

CAMELYAF GLASS FIBER / SMC3 multi end roving is made from "E" glass fiber with the following properties

• good unwinding property
• good strand integrity and choppability
• no static electricity
• no fuzz
• medium soluble
• very good dispersion
• good impregnation
• good mechanical and surface finish properties

For general purpose reinforcement for manufacturing of polyester moulding compounds specially for large size SMC parts. The silane based sizing is compatible with polyester resins.

CAMELYAF GLASS FIBER / SMC4 multi end chopping roving is made from "E" glass fiber with the following properties

• good unwinding property
• good choppability
• no static electricity
• no fuzz
• low soluble
• uniform dispersion
• good impregnation
• good mechanical and surface finish properties

Especially for applications where good product surface aspect is required. The silane based sizing is compatible with polyester resins.
