## Abstract The materials considered in this investigation were orientedβhybridβglassβfiberβreinforced vinyl ester resin sheetβmolding compound (SMC) composites. The composition of one material was 60 percent continuous glass and 5 percent random fibers, while the other was 45 percent continuous gl
## Abstract The absorption of water, isooctane, methanol and ethanol into a sheet molding compound (SMCβR30) 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 considerabl
