1.75mm PETG Black 3D Printer Filament 1KG - (AD44718)

Description:

When it comes to 3D printing, PETG material is the particular version of this plastic that is used in 3D printing processes, with the G standing for "glycol-modified." This is added to the material's composition during polymerization. 3D printing with PETG filament offers a result that gives the materials a clear appearance, which is less brittle and simpler to use than the base form of PET. The molecular structure is also known to be irregular, while the resin is clear and amorphous with a glass transition temperature of 85 degrees Celsius.

Where does PETG come from?

Polyethylene Terephthalate (PET) is the most widely used plastic in the world. In fact, if you look around you, you'll find that the polymer is used in many different applications, from creating water bottles to the fibers in your clothes. It is also widely used in thermoforming processes and can be combined with fiberglass to create resins used in the engineering world. Most food and beverages are also delivered and packaged using PET. In short, it is used in so many consumer products that it is too many to list them all.
