<p>A corrosion resistant sheet molding compound (10) comprising a surface layer (50) overlying a base layer (20). The base layer comprises reinforcing fiber (30) impregnated with a first thermosetting resin (40). The surface layer comprises a corrosion resistant veil (60), not more than 100 mils in thickness, impregnated with a second thermosetting resin (70). A method for making corrosion resistant sheet molding compound is also disclosed. The method comprises the steps of: a) contacting a top face of the base layer with a bottom face of the surface layer; and b) placing the base layer and the surface layer under a compressive molding pressure applied to a bottom face of the base layer and a top face of the surface layer.</p> |
