In the plastic manufacturing industry, Cycle Time is the vital factor determining profitability. Selecting LLDPE (Linear Low-Density Polyethylene) with a Melt Index (MI) of 7-8 is becoming a dominant trend thanks to its perfect balance between mechanical properties and processing speed.

2. Why is MI 7-8 the Key to Shortening Cycle Time?
Accelerated Filling Speed
With a high Melt Index ($7 - 8$ g/10 min), the resin's viscosity decreases during the melting phase. This allows the molten plastic to flow effortlessly into complex mold cavities or thin-walled sections ($< 1$ mm) without requiring excessive machine temperatures.
Reduced Thermal Stress & Cooling Time
By allowing processing at lower temperatures compared to low-MI grades (such as MI 1-2), the product reaches dimensional stability faster. This significantly shortens the cooling phase—which typically accounts for 60-70% of the total cycle time.
Controlled Shrinkage
LLDPE MI 7-8 provides uniform shrinkage (typically 1.5% - 3% depending on thickness), which helps minimize warpage and reduces the rejection rate (NG rate) to below 1%.

3. Practical Applications: From Household to Industrial
The combination of LLDPE's inherent flexibility and the high flowability of MI 7-8 makes this material ideal for:
