Description
An extremely versatile 3D Printing filament, which has excellent abrasion resistance, good chemical resistance, very good for outdoor use. Polymaker PC-PBT is resistant to hydrocarbons, alcohols, organic acids, inorganic aqueous salts, and mild base and acid solutions. This makes them suitable for applications requiring resistance to intermittent contact with many lubricants, solvents, fuels, oils, cleaning agents, and other automotive-type chemicals. Polymaker PC-PBT is not resistant to strong alkalis or chlorinated, aromatic, ketone- or ester-containing solvents. Additional influence parameters of the chemical resistance properties of material are the: – Composition of the surrounding media – Temperature – Duration of exposure It is essential to test them under actual operating conditions first. APPLICATIONS Housings and covers Irrigation components Wiring components Outdoor Components ADVANTAGES High impact strength Good balance of Chemical & Mechanical Properties Easy to machine, fabricate, paint, and glue Excellent impact resistance even at low temperatures Good heat resistance Good chemical resistance 
PET-G
Overview
A versatile middle ground between PLA and ABS.
PET-G Is stronger than PLA but easier to print with than ABS. The glycol in this material makes the filament less brittle and resistant to water, chemicals, and solvents. It is naturally clear, making it the go-to filament for translucent prints.
The strength and durability of a PET-G filament vary depending on the brand. An easy way to check if one PET-G is stronger than another is by comparing the tensile strength value of each filament. If printed in a sterile, FDA-approved environment, PET-G can be used to create food-safe prints.
Due to its strong and durable nature, PET-G can be difficult to finish with post-processing methods such as sanding. Prints may also be difficult to paint or glue together. Depending on printer and slicer settings, you may experience small hairs over the surface of prints caused by stringing. These can be removed with a heat gun or lighter.
Used for: Water Bottles, Plant Pots.
