The Melochem 791 Molding Compound in powder form are based on melamine-formaldehyde resins fortified with high-class cellulose as reinforcement and further modified with minor amounts of special purpose additives, pigments, cure regulators and lubricants. The Melochem 791 Molding Compounds can be supplied in most colors from translucent pastels to black. Molded parts are free from odor, light stable and have good moisture resistance. Hard and Glossy surface with excellent scratch and chemical resistance. Fats, oils and common organic solvents like alcohol and acetone do not attack the materials and they are also resistant to surfactants and weak bases. They will also withstand attack from weak acids fro a shorter duration. Oxygen index is 40% and is achieved without the use of external flame retardants. No halogens are present in the composition.
