A Melt Flow Tester in Brazil, also known as a Melt Flow Indexer (MFI), is a core laboratory instrument used to measure the melt mass-flow rate (MFR) and melt volume-flow rate (MVR) of thermoplastic materials. These values help manufacturers confirm polymer consistency, processability, and material performance for production and quality control.
Qualitest supplies a complete range of Melt Flow Testers for plastics manufacturers, compounders, research laboratories, and testing facilities across Brazil. Our systems deliver accurate, repeatable results aligned with globally recognized test methods.
Why Melt Flow Testing Matters for the Brazilian Plastics Industry
Brazil’s plastics and polymer sector supports packaging, automotive, construction, consumer goods, and industrial manufacturing. Consistent melt flow performance helps with:
- Monitoring raw material quality
- Controlling extrusion and injection molding processes
- Comparing resin batches and suppliers
- Supporting R&D and material development
- Meeting customer and regulatory specifications
A reliable Melt Flow Indexer helps reduce variation, minimize waste, and maintain stable processing conditions.
Materials Commonly Tested
Qualitest Melt Flow Testers support a wide range of thermoplastics, including:
- Polyethylene (PE)
- Polypropylene (PP)
- ABS
- Polycarbonate (PC)
