PETG extrusion sheet 1-10 mm advantages and disadvantages analysis

**PETG 1-10mm thick sheet material: 

Production cost, technical parameters and analysis of JOBBETTER's technical advantages**

In modern industrial manufacturing, transparent sheets are key materials and are widely used in many fields such as construction, decoration, advertising, and packaging. PETG, PC (polycarbonate) and acrylic (polymethyl methacrylate) are three types of transparent sheet materials that have attracted much attention. This article will focus on analyzing the advantages and disadvantages of PETG 1-10mm thick sheet materials and PC and acrylic in terms of production cost and technical parameters, and will especially introduce JOBBETTERde's mature technology in the field of PETG thick sheet material manufacturing and its inspection machine production line.

### Production cost and technical parameter analysis

**PETG**

- **Production cost**: The raw materials of PETG are mainly composed of terephthalic acid (PTA), ethylene glycol (EG) and 1,4-cyclohexanedimethanol (CHDM), and its raw material cost is relatively low. At the same time, PETG has a short processing cycle, low temperature, high yield, and no pre-drying treatment is required, which further reduces the production cost.

- **Technical parameters**: PETG sheet has high transparency, excellent toughness and impact strength, which is 3-10 times that of modified polyacrylates. It also has excellent weather resistance, can prevent yellowing, and contains UV absorbers to protect the sheet from UV damage. In addition, PETG sheet is easy to process and can be sawed, die-cut, drilled and other operations, and is not easy to break.

**PC Polycarbonate**

- **Production cost**: The raw material cost of PC is relatively high, and pre-drying treatment is required before processing, which increases energy consumption and cost. The long processing cycle, high temperature, and high requirements for molds further increase the production cost.

- **Technical parameters**: PC sheet has the characteristics of high strength, high heat resistance and high transparency. However, its processing cost is high, and in some specific occasions, its performance may not be as good as PETG.

**Acrylic PMMA **

- **Production cost**: The raw material cost of acrylic varies depending on the type, but is generally higher than PETG. The processing process is complicated and requires professional equipment and processes, which further increases the production cost.

- **Technical parameters**: Acrylic sheet has high transparency and good surface gloss, and is easy to print. However, it has poor toughness, is brittle, and in certain specific occasions, its performance may not be as good as PETG and PC.
