The Melt Mass-Flow Rate is a one number indication of the viscosity of a polymer during the melt phase. It can be defined as the mass of polymer in grams flowing per 10 minutes through a capillary of specific diameter and length by a pressure which is applied via a variety of standard weights at a specified temperature.
