PETG vs. Low Friction PAI
Both PETG and low friction PAI are thermoplastics. There are 18 material properties with values for both materials. Properties with values for just one material (15, in this case) are not shown.
For each property being compared, the top bar is PETG and the bottom bar is low friction PAI.
