Melt
Flow Indexer
MFI 9
Used to determine the melt flow
rate of a polymer by extruding it in a molten state through a
calibrated die using a reference weight, the MFI 9 is a
competitively priced product which catagorically outclasses
competition for accuracy, repeatability and reproducibility of
results. Ideal for low volume users who require the same quality
machine as larger corporations.

Melt Flow Indexer
MFI 10
Used to determine the melt flow
rate of a polymer by extruding it in a molten state through a
calibrated die using a reference weight. The MFI 10 is an
intelligent, modular system which offers flexibility of testing and
increased automation. The main base unit can be configured for
either manual or fully automatic testing.

Melt Viscometer for PET
Used to determine the Intrinsic Viscosity of hygroscopically
sensitive materials, such as PET by extruding the polymer in a
molten state through a calibrated die using high pressure nitrogen
gas. The ICI approved Melt Viscometer is proven and safe for
routine testing of Melt Viscosity (MV) and Intrinsic Viscosity
(IV).

HDT/VICATPlus
The DAVENPORT HDT/VICATPlus from
Lloyd Instruments is designed to determine the temperature of
deflection of thermoplastic samples in accordance with both
national and international standards. The unit consists of a
temperature controlled oil bath, with up to six testing stations,
each of which may be configured for either HDT or VICAT test
methods.

Density
Column
The Davenport Density Measuring
apparatus is designed to measure the density of solid materials,
notably plastics, by the technique described in BS2782 part 6
Method 620D, ASTM D1505-68, ISO 1183 and others. It is also a quick
comparative test, ideal for discerning density differences between
similar materials.

Falling Dart Impact
Tester
Model A: Complies with BS2782:
Part 3: Method 352D and ASTM D 1709 Method A. Single dart drop of
660 mm and drop weights from 1g up to a total of 1640g. The sample
is held down by a vacuum and clamping ring. A 20g dart is supplied
suitable for testing thin film and the edge of tubular film of low
impact strength.

Inclined
Plane
The Inclined Plane is ideal for
accurate, simple and quick checks on co-efficient of friction. The
method involves increasing the angle (up to 60ç) of
inclination of a plane surface covered with the test material. A
free sled, also covered in the material, will start to slide at the
point at which gravitational force overcomes the static friction
between the two. This is the static co-efficient of friction. By
reducing the angle of inclination of the plane whilst the sled is
in motion, until the motion stops, gives the kinetic co-efficient
of friction.
