Of course. Plenty of other thermoplastics can be used with FDM 3D printing, but those that can be fairly compared to PLA and PETG are: ABS (acrylonitrile butadiene styrene): This can make high-strength parts of decent quality, but the risk of warping is a little higher, especially for des...
The PETG vs PLA question depends on various factors, including the object's intended use, the printer's capabilities, and environmental conditions. Each material has its strengths and weaknesses, and understanding these can help you choose the right material for your 3D printing project. What is...
Here is the comparison for PLA and PETG: III. PETG vs ABS 1. PETG and ABS properties ABS (Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene) has long been a staple in the 3D printing world, prized for its strength and heat resistance. However, ABS is also known for its higher emission rates of styrene, ...
Users find that it’s more difficult to print with PLA in comparison to PETG. This is because PETG requires a hotter bed and extruder temperature. However, PETG does have a higher strength than its PLA counterpart. How Xometry Can Help ...

Two distinct thermoplastic polymers, which are common in 3D printing, were selected to study the enhancement of interlayer tensile strength of composites by additive manufacturing: a) an amorphous polyethylene terephthalate-glycol (PETG), and b) a semi-crystalline poly (lactic acid) (PLA). It was...
The main application for PETG is3D printing. PETG filaments offer unique properties such as strength, impact resistance and flexibility. Because of its low shrinkage properties, PETG is perfect for big and large prints, even better than ABS (ACRYLONITRILE BUTADIENE STYRENE) & PLA (Polylactic Acid)...
PETG outperforms PET in toughness, impact strength, and transparency, making it ideal for medical devices and special packaging. PETG also shows superior chemical resistance in some cases and is easier to mold due to its lower processing requirements, unlike PET which needs pre-drying. ...
1:PLA META Filament Features 1. Environmental protection, non-toxic, biodegradable; 2. Soft and warm colors 3. Low shrinkage rate; 4. High strength and rigidity; 5. Very good toughness, not easy to break 6. The printing temperature is 180~200°. Lower printing temperature, means more energ...
