You are asked to specify the material for an extremely large part. The boss says he wants a high MI material. Why would this be beneficial, and what effect would the choice have on material properties? (Density, impact resistance, tensile and flexural properties, etc.)

What will be an ideal response?


The higher the MI the more material will be extruded faster in order to create the really large part. The properties of such a material would result in a part that would have a higher impact resistance because of its higher tensile strength. These characteristics would also assume that the material would have greater flexural properties and lower crystallinity.
