Melt Flow Index Apparatus
|
(As per Indian, ASTM and Other International standards)
The melt flow index system designed to test flow rate and melting temperature of Plastics.
The system consists of following:
� With PID controller
� Standard weights as per requirements
� Auto cut-off Knife on preset time
� Timer and stop watch for knife activation, flow rate
Scope
The Melt Flow Index is a measure of the ease of flow of the melt of a thermoplastic polymer.Melt flow rate is very commonly used for polyolefin, polyethylene, and polycarbonate and other from the polymer family which are engineering plastics be measured from 190�C to 375�C. The plastics converter should choose a material with a melt index so high that he can easily form the polymer in the molten state.
Application
