| | P316 Chopped Strands for BMC | |
| | | |
| | PRODUCT DESCRIPTION P316 chopped strands are made from E-glass continuous filaments treated with a polyester-compatible size. They are particularly suitable for producing compounds intended for either compression or injection molding in the production of thermoset composites. | |
| | | |
| | PRODUCT REFERENCE Example : EC 17 6 mm P316 E : Glass type C : Continuous process 17 : Filament diameter (urn) 6 : nominal length of chop P316 : OCV™ Reinforcements code for sizing system | |
| | | |
| | FEATURES AND PRODUCT BENEFITS | |
| | | |
| | Easy mixing into the resin Because of their whiteness P316 chopped strands do not color the compound Good dispersion of the fibers in the GMT sheets Improved mechanical properties in both compression-molded and injection-molded parts. | |

| | TECHNICAL CHARACTERISTICS (NOMINAL VALUES) | |
| | | |
| | | |
| | | |
| | VISUAL CHARACTERISTICS The chopped strands P316 are white in color and should be free from any general contaminants such as metallic particles or fuzz deposits having a size superior to the double length of chopping. Production conditions of chopped strands P316 have been particularly optimized to limit eventually yellow organic deposits appearing a very low rate. | |
