Bulk Molding Compound
Bulk Molding Compound (BMC) is a thermoset plastic resin blend of various inert fillers, fiber reinforcement, catalysts, stabilizers, and pigments that form a viscous, 'puttylike' compound for compression or injection molding. Bulk Molding Compound (BMC) is highly filled and reinforced with short fibers. Glass reinforcement represents between 10% and 30%, with glass length typically between 1/32-inch and 1/2-inch (12.5mm).
Depending on the end-use application, compounds are formulated to achieve close dimensional control, flame and track resistance, high dielectric strength, corrosion and stain resistance, superior mechanical properties, low shrink, and color stability. Its excellent flow characteristics and electrical and flame resistant properties make Bulk Molding Compound (BMC) well-suited to a wide variety of applications requiring precision in detail and dimensions. The material is available in a wide variety of colors, and can tolerate powder-coat or water-based paint.
