ABSTRACT:
This invention relates to low-density thermosetting sheet molding compounds (SMC) including a treated inorganic clay, a curative, a low profile agent, a reinforcing agent, and preferably a low-density filler. The thermosetting SMC are used to prepare exterior and structural thermoset articles, e.g. auto parts, panels, etc.
