Generally thermoset unsaturated polyester or vynil-ester resins are used as organic matrix.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\" id=\"2\">With the aim of enhance its characteristics and improve its transformation, other components are added: catalysts, inhibitors, thermoplastic additives, demoulding agents, thickeners and pigments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"has-text-color wp-block-heading\" style=\"color:#106c40\">BMC MANUFACTURING PROCESS<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Resins, fillers and additives are automatically weighted and mixed together to form the mother paste. In a second mixer, more fillers, colour pigments and chopped glass fibre are automatically weighted and mixed together within a computer-controlled process to ensure a perfect impregnation or wet out of the glass fibre.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The resulting mix is then sent to an extruder, which compacts the BMC material and packs it into bags. At the end of the process, after BMC bags pass through a metal detector to prevent material from having any metallic foreign object, BMC bags are packed into boxes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\" id=\"3\"><a href=\"https:\/\/astar.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/AstarBMCProcess-1024x651.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"651\" src=\"https:\/\/astar.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/AstarBMCProcess-1024x651.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-233\" srcset=\"https:\/\/astar.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/AstarBMCProcess-1024x651.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/astar.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/AstarBMCProcess-300x191.jpg 300w, https:\/\/astar.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/AstarBMCProcess-768x488.jpg 768w, https:\/\/astar.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/AstarBMCProcess.jpg 1348w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"has-text-color wp-block-heading\" style=\"color:#106c40\">MATURATION AND CONSERVATION<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">BMC must mature before it reaches optimal conditions for moulding. Typically the required maturation time is between 2 and 4&nbsp;days, depending on the specific formulation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\" id=\"4\">Even after the material has matured, it continues to thicken at a speed dependant on the storage temperature. Therefore there is an optimal utilisation period of typically, between 1 and 6 months, dependant mainly on the specific formulation and storage temperature, which is recommended to be between 15 and 25\u00baC. Higher storage temperatures can significantly reduce the usability time of BMC.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"has-text-color wp-block-heading\" style=\"color:#106c40\">BMC MOULDING<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">BMC can be moulded both in injection or compression processes for large scale production of medium-size or small complex parts. Although moulding activities are carried out by our customers, Astar assists during moulding trials and offers complete technical assistance everytime is required.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/astar.es\/index.php\/en\/products\/moulding-processes\/\"><span style=\"color:#106c40\" class=\"has-inline-color\">+ Moulding Processes<\/span><\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery columns-1 is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\"><ul class=\"blocks-gallery-grid\"><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"500\" height=\"333\" src=\"https:\/\/astar.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/205553-BMC3.jpg\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"237\" data-full-url=\"https:\/\/astar.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/205553-BMC3.jpg\" data-link=\"https:\/\/astar.es\/index.php\/productos\/bmc\/205553-bmc3\/\" class=\"wp-image-237\" srcset=\"https:\/\/astar.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/205553-BMC3.jpg 500w, https:\/\/astar.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/205553-BMC3-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><\/figure><\/li><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"500\" height=\"333\" src=\"https:\/\/astar.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/BMC2.jpg\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"238\" data-full-url=\"https:\/\/astar.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/BMC2.jpg\" data-link=\"https:\/\/astar.es\/index.php\/productos\/bmc\/bmc2\/\" class=\"wp-image-238\" srcset=\"https:\/\/astar.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/BMC2.jpg 500w, https:\/\/astar.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/BMC2-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><\/figure><\/li><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"500\" height=\"333\" src=\"https:\/\/astar.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/091924-BMC1.jpg\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"239\" data-full-url=\"https:\/\/astar.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/091924-BMC1.jpg\" data-link=\"https:\/\/astar.es\/index.php\/productos\/bmc\/091924-bmc1\/\" class=\"wp-image-239\" srcset=\"https:\/\/astar.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/091924-BMC1.jpg 500w, https:\/\/astar.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/091924-BMC1-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><\/figure><\/li><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"500\" height=\"569\" src=\"https:\/\/astar.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/145927-Scan.jpg\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"240\" data-full-url=\"https:\/\/astar.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/145927-Scan.jpg\" data-link=\"https:\/\/astar.es\/index.php\/productos\/bmc\/145927-scan\/\" class=\"wp-image-240\" srcset=\"https:\/\/astar.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/145927-Scan.jpg 500w, https:\/\/astar.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/145927-Scan-264x300.jpg 264w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><\/figure><\/li><\/ul><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"has-text-color wp-block-heading\" id=\"5\" style=\"color:#106c40\"><strong>BMC Product Overview<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"productos wp-block-paragraph\">Our&nbsp;<strong>Verkid<\/strong><strong><sup>\u00ae&nbsp;<\/sup><\/strong><strong>BMC<\/strong>&nbsp;products are adaptable to your specific needs.
