In order to decide on what formulation of recycled SMS material to use in the hood inner, a plan was developed to compare the test results using Ford's Design Verification Plan (DVP) test regimes for hood systems. Hoods were made from conventional SMC, 25% post-industrial SMC and 25% post consumer SMC. The comparison of critical test results show that between the post-industrial and the post-consumer recycled hoods, there wasn't any appreciable differences that couldn't be addressed with design modifications. In general, the recycled hoods were less stiff, needed torsional stiffness upgrades and design revision for thermal sag issue. Hence, it is concluded that the current production regular SMC hoods could not be replaced by the recycled SCM hoods with the current design unchanged.
