Description
Properties
Polyester can be bent at sharp angles without breaking and resembles metals in that property. Transparency is good, but optically it is less perfect than acrylic. The laser cut shows a melt edge of about 0.1 mm, making this material especially suitable for large shapes. Polyester is relatively soft so it can be trimmed with a Stanley knife.
Applications
Because it can be folded, polyester can be used well for origami-like applications and for prototyping folding parts. Thin polyester (0.8 and 0.5mm) is also great for making paint stencils. It does not absorb paint, is easy to clean and is also transparent. In model making it is also used as a cheaper alternative to acrylic, although for detail work acrylic is superior.
