SMC curing properties are being measured with many kinds of procedures all over the world, and they are the most important factors for molding. But, it is very difficult to predict SMC curing properties because SMC consists of many kinds of ingredients. Measuring temperature in the middle of SMC plies with a thermocouple is so convenient that it is widely adopted to curing properties evaluation. Time-temperature curve involves many factors, for example, thermal conductivity, radical generation and polymerization. SMC curing is affected by combination of these factors.
