PHYSICAL PROPERTIES TESTING

 

Physical Properties Testing on plastic materials, providing result with an objective understanding of the material and ensures that the material complies with industry specifications. Physical properties testing provides information such as density, melt flow rate, moisture.


Testing for physical properties is performed under various conditions in our laboratory. These are:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Melt Flow Index (MFI)

g/10min. ISO 1133 

Density

g/cm3 ISO 1183 

Ash Content

%

ISO 3451

 

Ash Content test is used to determine the total filler content in the material or if a material is filled. The test sample is burned in a porcelain pot for a certain period of time at a predetermined temperature, wherein the polymeric components are burned and unburned residue is brought to constant weight. The percentage content of polymer filler is calculated by ash residue amount.

 
Moisture Content % ISO 787/2
