Overview:
The Melt Flow Index Tester measures flowability or melt flow index (MFI) on various materials under controlled conditions by Test Your Product. This equipment simulates real scenarios for predicting the performance of materials with time when subjected to heat and pressure. A manufacturer and supplier would thus be assured of melt flow integrity and performance of the products in real applications.
How the Melt Flow Index Tester Works:
The test sample of the material is prepared and placed carefully in the tester. The materials tested could be plastics, polymers, or composites. The melt flow index tester manufacturer in India adjusts the parameters of temperature and pressure accordingly. The sample is then subjected to a controlled thermal and pressure environment.
Under standard test conditions, the tester measures melt flow rate (MFR) and melt volume rate (MVR). The melt flow process is started under controlled conditions, recording the melt flow index. Advanced techniques such as microscopy or spectroscopy may be applied for further characterization to study the behaviour and properties of the sample.
The Melt Flow Index Tester manufacturer Test Your Product assures that it is a good tool that gives insight into melt flow, endurance, and heat and pressure performance of materials, allowing material selection and product design and enabling quality control teams to ensure that their products can withstand the rigours of the real world.
