A Study on Material Charaterization and Mechanical Properties of SMC Compression Molding Parts

An experimental study on material characterization and mechanical properties of SMC(Sheet Molding Compounds) compression molding parts was carried out. Simple compression test using grease oil as a lubricant was carried out to characterize flow stress of SMC at elevated temperatures. Two different mold temperatures, 130$^{\circ}C$ and 150$^{\circ}C$ and two different mold speeds, 15, 45mm/min were used for preparing the specimen of SMC compression molding parts. Surface roughness, tensile, and 3-point bending tests were used to determine the effects of molding temperatures and speeds on mechanical properties of compression molded SMC parts.
