Plastic CoPET (PETg) от 3Dplast

CoPET (PETg) from 3Dplast, features of use

CoPET plastic from 3Dplast is characterized not only by good strength, but also by low heat shrinkage. Due to its high impact resistance, chemical resistance and use in a wide range of temperatures, it has a wide range of applications.

Interesting fact! CoPET (PETg) material is widely used in the food industry. It is used to make disposable dishes and tableware, as well as plastic bottles in which carbonated drinks and juices are poured.

PETg plastic is also widely used in medicine for packaging pharmaceutical products and for the production of medical implants. The high level of rigidity of 3Dplast's PETg plastic also helps it to be used in moving mechanisms that are used in robotics and other mechanisms in home and industrial workshops.

The use of CoPET (PETg) plastic in 3D printing is characterized by these properties:

• Ease of printing, comparable to PLA plastic;
• Resistance to mechanical damage at the level of ABS;
• Virtually no shrinkage of plastic when cooling down;
• Good adhesion of layers (in case of correct temperature regime, the product after printing is monolithic);
• No harmful components and emission of harmful substances during printing;
• High impact resistance;
• Longevity;
• Plastic products have an eye-pleasing glossy surface;
• High chemical resistance rate;
• High specific density (1.29 g/cm3).
