Melt Flow Index
The Melt Flow Index (MFI), also known as the Melt Flow Rate (MFR), is a measurement of the flowability or melt viscosity of a thermoplastic polymer. It quantifies how easily a polymer can be melted and extruded under standardized conditions, which is crucial for understanding its processing behavior. MFI is typically expressed in units of grams per 10 minutes (g/10 min) and is determined using a standardized test method.
