BMC 0390 is a low profile DMC/BMC. Because of its low shrinkage, the material shows good surface quality as well as very low warpage. The product is suitable for applications if a better surface quality is necessary that cannot be achieved with low shrink material. Because of the low shrinkage, tool design is more difficult and the user should take care to allow proper part ejection from mould. Typical applications are housings or covers that call for improved surface quality and dimensional stability. Because of this painting may be desired. Paint adhesion of appropriate paint systems is very good. Chrome plating of punch and cavity surfaces is recommended.Information Provided by Menzolit |
