Melt Flow Index Tester for Measuring Polymer Processing Behaviour
Plastic materials must have suitable flow characteristics to perform consistently during moulding, extrusion and other manufacturing processes. Even small variations in polymer quality can affect mould filling, wall thickness, surface appearance, dimensional accuracy and final product strength. A Melt Flow Index Tester helps manufacturers examine the flow behaviour of molten thermoplastic materials under controlled testing conditions. Pacorr Testing Instruments offers a dependable Melt Flow Index Tester for polymer manufacturers, plastic processing units, packaging companies, recycling facilities and quality-control laboratories. What Is a Melt Flow Index Tester? A Melt Flow Index Tester is a laboratory instrument used to measure the amount of molten polymer that passes through a standard die under a defined temperature and applied load. The test result is generally reported in grams per 10 minutes , written as g/10 min . This value is known as the Melt Flow Index or Melt Flow Ra...
