For manufacturers in industries such as plastics extrusion, injection molding, and film production, ensuring material consistency is critical to maintaining high-quality output. One essential measurement for achieving this is Melt Flow Index (MFI), which determines the ease of flow of a polymer melt. Dynisco’s Melt Flow Indexers provide industry-leading accuracy, repeatability, and ease of use, making them indispensable tools for plastic manufacturers focused on superior product quality and process control.
What is Melt Flow Index (MFI)?
Melt Flow Index (MFI) is a fundamental measurement that quantifies the rate at which a polymer flows under a specified temperature and pressure. It is a widely used parameter in the plastics industry to assess material properties such as viscosity, molecular weight, and overall processability. By understanding the MFI of raw materials, manufacturers can optimize processing conditions, ensure consistency across production batches, and meet industry standards.
