The FCR Flow Characterization Rheometer measures the flow of molten resin through two separate dies. The FCR can be configured to measure dual Melt Flow Rates (MFR), simultaneous MFR and Apparent Viscosity, a range of apparent shear viscosity, and extensional viscosity using the Cogswell Equations. Simple “in the field” calibration. Systems for hazardous locations are available.

Features:

• Dual capillary design
• Online ASTM D1238 Melt Flow Rate at two load conditions
• Ideal for flow ratio measurements
• Online Apparent Viscosity over broad shear rate range
• Online measurements of polymer extensional properties
