What are Melt Flow Index (MFI) Machines?

Melt Flow Index (MFI) machines are crucial for polymer testing and quality control. They measure the melt flow rate of thermoplastic materials, indicating their ease of melting and flow under specific conditions.

The MFI tester consists of a heated barrel and a piston with a standard-sized orifice through which the molten polymer is extruded. By applying predetermined weight and temperature, the resulting extrudate is collected and weighted to calculate the melt flow rate. This measurement assesses the polymer’s processing behaviour, viscosity, and flow properties, enabling evaluation for diverse applications in industries like plastics manufacturing, automotive, packaging, and medical. MFI machines provide valuable data ensuring product quality, optimising production processes, and facilitating material selection and development.
