New Compounds for various applications PDF Print E-mail
Menzolit is focussing the R&D activities on various application areas and customer requirements. The results are new compounds that are tailor made for certain needs that are either necessary to replace an existing material that does not 100% fulfil the need or for generally new areas that require new solutions.

Recently Menzolit SMC 1800 and Menzolit BMC 2900 were launched for structural and safety use.

Menzolit SMC 1800 has been designed to produce really 3-dimensional parts for structural applications there is now a high performance material that can mould to complex parts.

Menzolit BMC 2900 can be used to mould safety parts or signs
In applications where luminescent or fluorescent behaviour becomes a real safety advantage parts that are made from standard SMC can be mould with BMC 2900 to form a safety device with functions.

Menzolit Bio BMC is a compound that is made fro renewable natural raw materials. In today's world with ever increasing demand of limited raw materials like petrol oil or energy, dwindling raw material availability and therefore sky rocketing raw material cost; natural growing and therefore renewable materials become interesting to material designers. This was the starting point for Menzolit's product designers. A sustainable material business is based on access and availability of raw materials. Therefore, it is important to look on other resources than today's used raw materials.

Menzolit HPC is a high strength material with unidirectional reinforcement. Especially high strength and stiffness in direction of fibre orientation for structural applications.

Menzolit AdvancedSMC is a very special SMC using Carbon fibres in ccontinuous non chopped heavy tow carbon fibers  produce thin layers of unidirectional  composite. Chopped fibers are used to provide transversal reinforcement.
After compounding and maturation thin layers are stacked and assembled in a predetermined pattern to optimize product strength.

Menzolit CarbonSMC is a high performance Carbon-fibre reinforced SMC for high stiffness  and low weight.

Where do I need which Menzolit moulding compound?
