According to Data Bridge Market Research new Market report, global sheet molding compound (SMC) market will account to an estimated USD 2.81 billion in 2018 growing at a CAGR of 2.95% during the forecast period of 2019 to 2026.
Global Sheet Molding Compound (SMC) Market
Sheet molding compound are a material type that is equipped with the capabilities of being molded into different shapes and sizes and find their use in the working of various larger sized parts and components. They are formed with the help of compression molding, and this process results in enhanced characteristics for the material. Even though it is lightweight, they have high amounts of strength and durability, resulting in high strength-weight ratio.
