PETG material properties for 3D printing
What is PETG 3D Printing?
PETG (Polyethylene Terephthalate Glycol) is a thermoplastic widely recognized in the world of 3D printing thanks to its versatility and ease of use.
This material stands out for its excellent balance between strength, durability, and flexibility. Its superior chemical resistance allows PETG parts to withstand harsh environments, such as exposure to chemicals and industrial components. Its lower tendency to warp compared to other thermoplastics, such as ABS, makes it especially suitable for printing large or geometrically complex parts, as it minimizes the risk of deformation. Likewise, PETG is known for its strong interlayer adhesion, which contributes to the final quality of printed parts.
