About this product
SPR 401 DMC is the terephthalic resin for dough moulding compound production. The supplier lists DMC production, compression-moulded composite components and complex moulded FRP parts.
It is a separate product from the terephthalic SMC resin, with its own specification: a higher viscosity (1,200–2,200 cPs at 25 °C), a longer ambient gel time (14–22 minutes at 25 °C) and a reference cobalt dosage of 0.5%.
Samrat FRP Traders handles enquiries for this Samrat Poly Resins, India grade in Nepal. Pricing, packaging and availability are confirmed on enquiry.
What this means for buyers

How to read these values
- SMC and DMC resins are separate products with their own applications. Neither is a colour or size variant of the other.
- These are typical values from the supplier’s product catalogue. They describe the grade; they are not batch guarantees or acceptance limits.
- Resin data does not guarantee the performance of a finished FRP component. Confirm suitability with a trial on your own process, reinforcement and cure conditions.
Applications and processes
Uses listed in the supplier’s catalogue.
- Dough moulding compound production
- Compression-moulded composite components
- Complex moulded FRP parts
Limitations
- Its gel time of 14–22 minutes is an ambient QC value. Moulded-part properties come from the whole compound and press cycle.
- The values shown are typical catalogue values for the grade, not batch guarantees, acceptance limits or a Technical Data Sheet. Confirm the current data before relying on a figure.
- Resin data does not describe a finished part. Strength, durability, fire behaviour and chemical resistance of a part depend on its design, reinforcement, process, cure and testing.
When to consider a different resin
These grades are made for a different situation. Match them against your own service conditions.
- Isophthalic DMC Resin (SPR 301 DMC)The DMC is specified with an isophthalic resin.
- DMC/SMC ResinThe compound is specified with an orthophthalic resin.

Sources: the 2026 product catalogue of Samrat Poly Resins, India for the catalogue grades, and each earlier product’s published Technical Data Sheet summary. Values are typical and were measured under the conditions each source states, so they are a guide to selection, not batch guarantees. Viscosities measured at different spindle speeds or shear conditions are not directly comparable.
Manufacturing and quality context
Samrat Poly Resins manufactures the grade in Doraha, Punjab, India. Its 2026 catalogue presents every grade under its resin chemistry and code and describes a quality inspection laboratory at Doraha. Batch-specific questions, gel-time or viscosity queries and clarification of catalogue values are answered by the manufacturer’s technical team.
The catalogue recommends a trial on the customer’s own process and reinforcement before commercial use: typical values are not a substitute for a trial. Technical and safety data sheets are issued grade by grade: this grade’s Technical Data Sheet is published on this page, and a Safety Data Sheet has not been issued for it here. Ask for the current revision before relying on a document.
Samrat FRP Traders supplies and imports the grade for Nepal and handles enquiries. It does not manufacture, reformulate or certify resins.

Handling and safety
- Use suitable personal protective equipment and adequate ventilation.
- Store resin, initiators and accelerators separately, in original sealed containers, cool, shaded and away from heat and ignition sources.
- Add the initiator and the accelerator to the resin separately, according to the confirmed process.
- Never mix a concentrated peroxide initiator directly with a cobalt accelerator.

Frequently asked questions
How does it differ from Terephthalic SMC Resin?
It is made for dough moulding compound rather than sheet moulding compound, and it has its own specification.
Which other DMC resins are in the range?
The orthophthalic DMC/SMC Resin (SPR 201) and Isophthalic DMC Resin (SPR 301 DMC).
Is a technical or safety data sheet available?
Yes. The supplier’s Technical Data Sheet for this grade is published on this page — Doc. Ref SPR-TDS-TDM, Rev. 01, September 2026, issued by Samrat Poly Resins, India. No Safety Data Sheet has been issued for this grade on this site; ask us and we will request the current one.
What cure does the catalogue give?
MEKP 1.5% with cobalt octoate 0.5%, added separately during use.
How viscous is it?
1,200–2,200 cPs at 25 °C, thicker than the terephthalic SMC resin.
