PETG, glycol-modified polyethylene terephthalate, is a copolyester that is a clear amorphous thermoplastic. PETG sheet has high stiffness, hardness, and toughness as well as good impact strength. Unstressed PETG exhibits good resistance to dilute aqueous solutions of mineral acids, bases, salts, and soaps. PETG also has good resistance to aliphatic hydrocarbons, alcohols, and a variety of oils. Halogenated hydrocarbons, low molecular weight ketones, and aromatic hydrocarbons dissolve or swell this plastic. PETG does not contain a UV inhibitor and it is not suggested for use in applications involving continuous long-term outdoor exposure.  6, record 1, English, - poly%28ethylene%20terephthalate%29%20glycol

Le PETG ou polyéthylène téréphtalate glycol [...] est un polyester thermoplastique amorphe non cristallin [dont la] mise au point a été motivée par le besoin de disposer d'un polyester transparent extrudable dans les applications de l'emballage. Il a d'excellentes propriétés de brillance, de transparence et d'éclat. Ce matériau ne s'applique pas aux boissons gazeuses.  3, record 1, French, - poly%28%C3%A9thyl%C3%A8ne%20t%C3%A9r%C3%A9phtalate%29%20glycol
