PETG 3d printing filament

PETG is a 3d printing filament made from PET-G which is Glycol-modified PET, the modification is done by adding a second glycol during polymerization.
The resulting molecular structure is irregular and the resin is clear and amorphous with a glass transition temperature of 88 C (190 F).
Filament made from it gives good combination of toughness, clarity and stiffness

Here are videos from Mihai Oltean showing actual 3d printing with PETG and object properties:








Here are links to his blogposts about his PETG experiences with more details:

From his experience PETG doesn't stick to blue tape or to cool glass printbed.

Looks like PETG doesn't break but bends at much higher weight loads then PLA which breaks relativity easy.
