Melt Flow Index Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Melt Flow Index = Weight of Polymer/10
MI = M_p/10
This formula uses 2 Variables

Variables Used

Melt Flow Index - Melt Flow Index (MI) is a measure of the flow properties of a polymer when it is melted under specific conditions.
Weight of Polymer - (Measured in Gram) - Weight of Polymer is defined as the total mass of polymer.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Weight of Polymer: 0.77 Gram --> 0.77 Gram No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

MI = M_p/10 --> 0.77/10

What does Melt Index Signifies?

The Melt Flow Index (MFI) is a measure of the ease of flow of the melt of a thermoplastic polymer. It is defined as the mass of polymer, in grams, flowing in ten minutes through a capillary of a specific diameter and length by a pressure applied via prescribed alternative gravimetric weights for alternative prescribed temperatures.

How to Calculate Melt Flow Index?

Melt Flow Index calculator uses Melt Flow Index = Weight of Polymer/10 to calculate the Melt Flow Index, Melt Flow Index is defined as the mass of polymer, in grams, flowing in ten minutes through a capillary of a specific diameter and length by a pressure applied via prescribed alternative gravimetric weights for alternative prescribed temperatures. Melt Flow Index is denoted by MI symbol.
