What is a Melt Flow Index Tester?
The Melt Flow Index Tester Price is a laboratory instrument used to measure the melt flow rate (MFR) of polymer resins, which is the amount of material that flows through a specific die in a given time at a certain temperature and pressure. The test result helps determine the material’s viscosity and its suitability for various manufacturing processes such as extrusion, injection molding, and blow molding.
MFI is measured in grams per 10 minutes, and it gives an indication of how easily a polymer can flow when molten. A higher melt flow index suggests the material is less viscous and more fluid under heat, while a lower index indicates a thicker, more viscous material.
