Flow improver for polyamide
OGSOL MF-11
OGSOL MF-11 is a new concept flow improver for polyamide.
By relaxing hydrogen bonds in polyamide, it improves flowability without affecting the original properties of the resin.
The flowability of polyamide can be improved by relaxing the hydrogen bonding. It also improves the moldability of the resin.

OGSOL MF-11 improves flowability for PA66/GF.
Flow Characteristics
Improved flowability can be expected with the addition of MF-11 at various shear rates and molding conditions.
Measuring conditions
Capillary length: 10mm
Capillary diameter: 1mm
Barrel diameter: 9.55mm
Resin temperature: 280°C
The addition of OGSOL MF-11 reduces the melt viscosity of PA66/GF resins at various shear rate ranges.
PA66/GF/MF-11
= 50/50/0
PA66/GF/MF-11
= 47.5/50/2.5
PA66/GF/MF-11
= 45/50/5
Measuring conditions
Mold temperature: 80°C
Resin temperature: 280°C
Spiral shape
Width: 5mm
Thickness: 3mm
The addition of OGSOL MF-11 increases the spiral flow length of PA66/GF resin independent of molding conditions.
