A5 MMC Melamine Moulding Compound For Tableware
Product description
Melamine moulding compounds ( thermosetting plastics) are amino moulding compounds composed of melamine formaldehyde and alpha cellulose as filling material with the addition of lubricant , hardening agent & pigments.
Thermosets offer many advantages over basic thermoplastics and are suitable for compression , transfer or injection moulding. They are produced in a precise, brilliant, light fastness and vibrant range of colors They are available in powder (which gives much better surface).
Melamine moulding compounds are strong, glossy, very very durable and highly resistant to staining. They have better resistance to heat, solvents, chemicals, moisture, electricity and scratching than urea moulding compounds.
