The 3D filament Kimya PETG-S is produced via copolymerization with PET. Polyethylene terephtalate glycol (PETG) is a saturated polyester polymer. It offers a perfect balance between flexibility and mechanical resistance and enables items to be produced with higher translucidity. Manufacturers use PETG to produce bottles, food containers, credit cards and loyalty cards. The 3D filament Kimya PETG-S has the following properties:
- No smell
- High flexibility
- Resistance to impact
- Food contact certified under EU 10/2011
- Hydrophobe
The PETG-S offers the perfect compromise between flexibility and mechanical resistance. Finally, it's not sensitive to moisture and therefore offers good adhesion between layers. Bright colors and polychrome One of the advantages of PETG-S is its choice of colors available for vivid and multicolored 3D prints. This 3D filament is the first Kimya filament available in translucent color (red, yellow, blue, green and black).
