what is the normal IZOD Impact Strength of ABS, PETG, PLA and TPU?

  The IZOD Data of Four 3D Printer Filament • ABS (Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene) - 15-30 kJ/㎡ (0.7-1.4 ft-lb/in) ABS is an amorphous polymer with good impact strength and durability.  Its impact resistance is on the higher end of FDM filaments. • PETG (Glycol modified Polyethylene Terephthalate) - 5-20 kJ/㎡ (0.25-0.95 ft-lb/in) PETG is an amorphous copolyester that is frequently used as an alternative to ABS.  It has moderate impact resistance and durability. • PLA (Polylactic Acid) - 2-10 kJ/㎡ (0.1-0.5 ft-lb/in) PLA is a biodegradable polymer made from renewable resources.  It has the lowest impact strength of common 3D printing filaments.  PLA parts are more brittle and can crack easily under high impact. As you can see, ABS has the highest impact strength, followed by PETG and then PLA with the lowest impact resistance.  The specific Izod values can vary slightly between different material brands and grades, but this provides a good relative comparison of strength between the th

  A high-quality 3D printing filament is key to successful 3D printing, whether you are a beginner or an experienced maker. SUNLU   3D printer filament   is widely acclaimed for their high-performance. One of star products is undoubtedly PLA Meta filament. This article showcases why SUNLU   PLA Meta   has become a popular choice. SUNLU PLA Meta deserves a spot on your shopping list next time you look for 3D printing materials.   Part 1: Brief Introduction of SUNLU PLA META What is SUNLU PLA Meta? SUNLU PLA Meta has undergone modifications based on PLA material. It has optimal properties for most FDM 3D printers and printing needs. With a diameter of 1.75mm, it ensures a smooth and consistent feeding experience. Also, it is beginner-friendly. It only requires a heated build plate at 50 to 60°C and a nozzle temperature of 180 to 200°C, promoting energy conservation and reduces printer depreciation, thereby optimizing its longevity. It has minimal shrinkage and odor, allowing you to print

PLA+ & PLA

PLA is a product derived from natural crops like corn, unlike other polymer plastics. It is eco-friendly and biodegradable. Almost all FDM 3D printers can print with PLA. As its melting point is low, PLA is very easy to print. PLA+ is PLA that has been enhanced by adding modifiers during PLA synthesis.The mechanical properties (flexibility, strength, ductility, etc.) of PLA+ are superior. 3D printed models from PLA+ have a smoother surface and better appearance.

3D printer filament comes in various types. SUNLU provides multiple 3D printer filament types, including PLA, PLA+, PETG, TPU, ABS, ASA filament, and many modified PLAs such as wood PLA and silk PLA. These 3D filaments have different properties, so they can be used for different applications. TPU is a flexible material similar to rubber and can be used to make protective covers for smartphones and other valuable equipment. ABS filament is a very high-strength material and can be used to create mechanical parts. SUNLU's 3D printer filaments are affordable and high-quality.
