It is necessary to measure the melt flow index as an indication of flow properties when forming thermoplastics.
This tester is most suited for these purposes featuring the extrusion type electric furance.
Weight of specimen to be extruded through a specified orifice and a specified period of time under prescribed conditions of pressure and temperature is measured and expressed as the flow rate.
Test methods for Determiantion of the melt mass-flow rate (MFR) and the melt volume-flow rate (MVR) of thermopalstics are regulated under international standards. This LABOT-MI can be done without any manual help.
