Chopped Strand Mat Powder
Ideal solution for demanding applications
Powder CSM represents an ideal solution for demanding applications requiring good surface finish and exceptional mechanical properties, in hand lay-up or closed mold processes.
Made of fine-medium tex multi-chop strands randomly dispersed and bonded together with a highly soluble polyester powder binder.
Product Features
Advantages
- Easy Handling and Moldability; The very good glass bonding of Chopped Strand Mat provides excellent dry handling characteristics and minimizes fiber shedding during the molding process.
- High Process Efficiency; Fast wetting and quick air release help reduce the labor required to roll out the part, ensuring efficient production.
- High Performance; Optimized product design allows for a good surface finish and smooth surface behind the gelcoat, while also providing the final part with exceptional tensile and flexural performance.
- Enhanced service life; helps with enhanced service life in applications facing corrosion.
