- a 0.5 mm x 5.0 mm capillary die was attached to a barrel with a barrel diameter of 9.55 mm, and the temperature inside the furnace was heated to 230°C.
- Approximately 5 g of sample was poured into the barrel from the top of the barrel by pushing it into the barrel little by little, taking care not to introduce any air bubbles.
- the sample was left under a load for 30 minutes, and the melt viscosity was measured at a shear rate of 1857/sec while the temperature was maintained at 230°C.
- the measurement ended 8 minutes after the start of the measurement (the sample was discharged). Calculate the coefficient of variation of the melt viscosity for any consecutive 3 minutes until no piston remains in the barrel, or the piston is pushed to the lower limit of the barrel and the equipment is stopped. Note that the arbitrary 3 minutes is selected within a range that does not include a sudden decrease in pressure that occurs when air bubbles are trapped, a sudden increase in pressure that occurs due to foreign matter getting caught in the capillary, etc.
- the melt viscosity ⁇ is determined by solving the following simultaneous equations (1) to (4).
- the coefficient of variation (%) is the value obtained by calculating the standard deviation and average value of the melt viscosity for any consecutive 3 minutes, and dividing the standard deviation by the average value.
- Q is the flow rate of the molten resin (mm 3 /s)

- L is , the capillary length (mm)
- ⁇ is the melt viscosity (Pa ⁇ sec).
- ⁇ Outflow start temperature> The elastic thread was cut to an appropriate length to prepare a sample for measurement.

After preheating at an initial setting temperature of 120° C. for 240 seconds, the temperature was raised at a constant rate of 3° C./min, and the plunger stroke-temperature curve drawn at that time was determined. As the temperature increases at a constant rate, the sample gradually heats up and the polymer begins to flow out. The temperature at which this polymer begins to flow out is defined as the flow start temperature. The measurement is performed three times, and the average temperature is used as the outflow starting temperature.
