PETG vs PLA is a question asked by many newcomers to FFF 3D printing, with both materials offering important benefits. Choosing between them often comes down to the requirements of the project.
I am trying to use PLA for support to my PETG printings but it works so well that the PETG layers that shall be supported can't stick at all on PLA support ending up in a mess. Is anyone else using PLA to support PETG prints and if so, what do you have ...
PETG provides better environmental stability but lacks the biodegradability of PLA, which is a sustainable choice for controlled conditions. 4.3.2. Other 3D Printing Methods Degradation is not confined to the products made by FDM technology. As for the degradation of SLA (Stereolithography) products,...
A cross–sectional view of the bottles is presented in Figure 18a, while Figure 18b shows the bottle made by 3DP using transparent PETG (polyethylene terephthalate glycol). PETG was selected because it has a higher glass–transition temperature than PLA, which ensures it is not affected by the...
