Abstract

The absorption of water, isooctane, methanol and ethanol into a sheet molding compound (SMCโ€R30) at room temperature is studied. The absorption behaviors are shown to be Fickian, with constant diffusion coefficients. Desorption of methanol and ethanol soaked specimens causes considerable surface cracking.

## Abstract Bonding and bolting strengths of a sheet molding compound (SMCโ€R30) are investigated. Epoxy adhesives are found to give good bonding strength. Surface pretreatment does not affect bond strength. Artificial weathering has practically no effect upon bond strength. Bolting strength depends
