What is a Melt Flow Index Tester?
A Melt Flow Index Tester is a laboratory instrument used to measure the flow rate of molten plastic through a die under controlled temperature and pressure. This flow rate, commonly referred to as the Melt Flow Rate (MFR), is a crucial indicator of a polymer's viscosity, molecular weight, and processing behavior.
Why is MFI Testing Important?
Quality Assurance: Ensures the polymer meets required specifications for end-use applications.
Process Optimization: Helps manufacturers adjust processing parameters based on flow characteristics.
Material Comparison: Assists in evaluating different polymer grades or batches for consistency.
