What to check before you buy
- MFI: Melt flow index (g/10 min) tells you how easily the material flows. Match it to your process: low for pipe and blow moulding, medium for film and raffia, higher for thin-wall injection moulding.
- Ash: Ash content shows how much filler or inorganic matter is present. Lower ash generally means purer polymer.
- Moisture: Moisture causes bubbles, silver streaks and weak parts. Ask for the moisture percentage and whether the material needs drying before use.
- Lot check: Agree MFI and its tolerance, density, moisture, ash or filler content, colour and how consistent it is between lots, black specks or gels, and the filter mesh used. Ask for a test report with every lot.
