PLA is a highly versatile material and is widely considered the go-to material for all levels of 3D print operators.
PETG combines the easy printability of PLA with the high strength and temperature resistance of ABS.
CPE is most similar to PLA, but has high chemical resistance and is FDA-approved.
ABS is used for more demanding applications and end-use parts, and is a suitable material for parts that require higher strength.
ASA is similar to ABS, but has the added benefit of weather and UV-resistance.
Polycarbonate (PC), although can be difficult to print, is well-known for its high melting temperature and high flexural strength.
Polypropylene (PP) is a lightweight, semi-flexible material commonly used for bottles and containers.
