Low Shrink Bulk Molding Compound
This group of products are designed for applications that require a cost effective composite solution that possesses good dimensional stability and can accommodate tight tolerances. These materials possess very low shrink characteristics and are well suited for applications requiring shrink <0.1% but little requirement for aesthetics.
Please note: all of our materials are custom developed to meet your specific requirements, if you don't see a product performance metric that meets your needs, call us to discuss your specific project requirements at 317.773.1766 or email us at sales-usa@idicomposites.com.

The information on this sheet is a guide. The stated values reflect an average of several tests conducted on CI's goods. These values were obtained under ideal conditions and may not be replicated in any particular test, part, or application. Because the values achieved in actual parts depend considerably on part design, molding conditions, and testing methods, no guarantee is made or implied regarding values to be obtained in any specific test, part, or application. CI makes no warranty or representation as to the suitability of any of its goods for use in any application. CI relies on customer to conduct its own tests and judge for itself the suitability of CI's goods.
