What is G-MUC
One of the main features of G-MUC lies in the BMC compression molding under high tem andHigh pressure. It entails the superior performance of heat-resistance, impact-resistance anddimensional stability. Its stable quality helps mass-supply from mass-production.Design modification of BMC formulation satisfies many required performances suiting various applications.
