PRUSAment PET-G for PPE

Ordered Prusament PETG Orange for PPE some time ago and used it  now for laboratory equipment. Printed the Eppendorf Block with Pla first. Result was A-OK no Problems as usual.

Now I tried to print it with the PRUSAment PetG for PPE and quality was bad, as see in the pictures

Maybe the print speed was to high for this material as it is not as perfect as normal PRUSAment PetG?

This looks like a partial clog. Make sure you keep the filament dry. I would put the PETG in a filament dryer for 6-8 hrs and try again.

If you are printing anything that will be used in a lab environment, especially around chemicals you should be using PP (polypropylene) such as PP-CF or PP-GF instead.

Dryed it for 6h and results are still awfull. Think the PetG for PPE is just not good.

Used a spool of noname petG I bought a few years ago and result is just fine
