Menzolit® BMC 3100

About
Menzolit® BMC 3100 is a bulk moulding compound based on unsaturated polyester resin. The product is glass fibre reinforced and contains mineral fillers. In case of fire the product doesn’t melt, neither does it form droplets nor is smoke generation excessive. The material is injection moulded in heated steel moulds. It is recommended to work with chrome plated tools. The product contains no halogens. Menzolit® BMC 3100 is a special BMC suitable for the use in head lamp reflectors. Because of its high temperature resistance and dimensional stability as well as low coefficient of thermal expansion, complex shapes and good reflective properties can be made. Because of its temperature resistance the precise geometry of the reflector will keep its precise shape even at high temperature. It has found specific use in the field of reflectors for automotive head lamps but its use as lamp housings for household and office lighting equipment is possible as well.&&
