  2. Medium-density polyethylene - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Medium-density_polyethylene

    Medium-density polyethylene (MDPE) is a type of polyethylene defined by a density range of 0.926–0.940 g/cm 3. [1] It is less dense than HDPE, which is more common. MDPE can be produced by chromium/silica catalysts, Ziegler-Natta catalysts or metallocene catalysts. MDPE has good shock and drop resistance properties.

  3. Melt flow index - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Melt_flow_index

    MFI Measuring device. The Melt Flow Index (MFI) is a measure of the ease of flow of the melt of a thermoplastic polymer.It is defined as the mass of polymer, in grams, flowing in ten minutes through a capillary of a specific diameter and length by a pressure applied via prescribed alternative gravimetric weights for alternative prescribed temperatures.

  4. Polyethylene - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polyethylene

    MDPE is defined by a density range of 0.926–0.940 g/cm 3. MDPE can be produced by chromium/silica catalysts, Ziegler–Natta catalysts, or metallocene catalysts. MDPE has good shock and drop resistance properties. It also is less notch-sensitive than HDPE; stress-cracking resistance is better than HDPE.

  5. French catheter scale - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/French_catheter_scale

    The Charrière is measured by the ''outer'' diameter, and is defined as 1 Fr = 1/3 mm, and thus 1 mm = 3 Fr; therefore the diameter of a round catheter in millimetres can be determined by dividing the French size by 3. [2] The French units roughly correspond to the outer circumference of the catheter (see table below).

  6. Mesh (scale) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mesh_(scale)

    Mesh is a measurement of particle size often used in determining the particle-size distribution of a granular material. For example, a sample from a truckload of peanuts may be placed atop a mesh with 5 mm openings. When the mesh is shaken, small broken pieces and dust pass through the mesh while whole peanuts are retained on the mesh.

  8. Shore durometer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shore_durometer

    If the indenter penetrates 2.54 mm (0.100 inch) or more into the material, the durometer is 0 for that scale. If it does not penetrate at all, then the durometer is 100 for that scale. It is for this reason that multiple scales exist.

  9. Plastic pipework - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plastic_pipework

    The range of pipe diameters for each pipe system does vary. However, the size ranges from 12 to 400 mm (0.472 to 15.748 in) and 3 ⁄ 8 to 16 in (9.53 to 406.40 mm). Pipes are extruded and are generally available in: 3 m (9.84 ft), 4 m (13.12 ft), 5 m (16.40 ft), and 6 m (19.69 ft) straight lengths and 25 m (82.02 ft), 50 m (164.04 ft), 100 m ...
