From the supplier: The use of glass fibers and unsaturated polyester resins in manufacturing is one of the most cost-effective processing techniques. However, the use of such materials causes the resin to shrink in volume by as much as 10% while in the curing stage. This shrinkage decreases the resin's surface quality while increasing the chances of fracture. Adding a thermoplastic material, which acts as a low profile additive, can be added to the thermoset resin to compensate for the volumetric curing shrinkage.
