The change in melt flow properties, as determined by melt index measurement, as a function of shear history, has been measured for linear polyethylene. It is shown that a drop in melt index occurs when a polymer sample which has had no previous shear history is melted and subjected to shear mixing.

## Abstract During a capillary extrusion with several different polyethylenes, we observe an abnormal rheological behavior. The nominal viscosity of some polyethylene melt in the gross melt fracture regime does not change with the temperature. Several metalloceneβcatalyzed linear low density polyet
