PLA
PLA is a fully biodegradable thermoplastic polymer made from renewable raw materials. In plastic injection molding, this material is used to manufacture packaging, mainly in the food sector, as a substitute for fossil fuel-based plastics, since the material is compatible with food contact.

PETG
PETG plastic, or glycolized polyester, is a thermoplastic widely used in additive manufacturing, combining the printing simplicity of PLA with the strength of ABS. It is an amorphous plastic, which can be 100% recycled, with the same chemical composition as polyethylene terephthalate, better known by its acronym PET. Glycol has been added to reduce its brittleness. Today, we take a look at the characteristics of PETG plastic in 3D printing, its printing parameters and its main applications.

ABS
ABS filament belongs to the styrenic polymer family. Acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS) is a thermoplastic polymer that is impact-resistant, relatively rigid and lightweight.
