PET-G (Polyethylene Terephthalate Glycol-Modified)
PET-G is a clear thermoplastic offering good impact resistance, chemical resistance, and ease of fabrication. It provides better toughness than acrylic while maintaining transparency, making it suitable for protective and visual components.
PET-G components are commonly fabricated through extrusion, thermoforming, and machining.
