PETG: The Durable Contender
PETG is known for its durability and versatility, making it a preferred choice for various 3D printing projects. It offers the following characteristics:
Strength and Durability
PETG is renowned for its strength and durability. It's resistant to impacts and less brittle than PLA, making it an ideal choice for mechanical components, functional parts, and objects that need to withstand stress.
Flexibility
PETG strikes a balance between rigidity and flexibility. It's not as rigid as PLA but not as flexible as TPU. This intermediate level of flexibility suits a wide range of applications.
Heat Resistance
PETG boasts excellent heat resistance, making it suitable for applications exposed to higher temperatures. It's more heat-resistant than PLA and less prone to warping during printing.
Chemical Resistance
PETG exhibits superior chemical resistance compared to PLA. It is less susceptible to chemical degradation, making it suitable for projects where exposure to chemicals is a concern.
Ease of Printing
While PETG is not as easy to print as PLA or PLA+, it's manageable with the right settings. It prints at higher temperatures, typically around 230-250°C, and may require a heated print bed to reduce warping.
