Global Sheet Molding Compound (SMC) Market Size, Manufacturers, Opportunities and Forecast to 2030

Global Sheet Molding Compound (SMC) Market Size, Manufacturers, Opportunities and Forecast to 2030

Summary

Sheet molding compound (SMC) is both a process and reinforced composite material. The composite is a “ready to mold” glass or carbon fiber reinforced polyester material primarily used in compression molding. The SMC sheets are manufactured by dispersing long strands of chopped glass fibers or carbon fibers on a bath of polyester resin, vinylester resin or epoxy resin.
SMC materials are thermosets and contain glass or carbon reinforcement levels between 10 and 60 %. The longer fibers in SMC result in better strength properties than standard bulk molding compound (BMC) products. Typical applications include demanding electrical applications, corrosion resistant needs, structural components at low cost, automotive, and transit. SMC delivers high surface quality. SMC is used for larger parts where higher mechanical strength is needed.
In this report, the SMC we surveyed are finished product of sheet molding compound, which is counterpart of BMC (Bulk molding compound).
