Market Definition
The aligner sheets and materials are the upcoming and innovative generation of thermoplastics, which are planned and designed, specifically for the implementation of clear aligners and retainers. The material benefits, ease-of –use, compatibility and affordability are aiming to help the manufacturers, the easy option for dentists and the dental laboratories and the aligner companied worldwide. The clear aligners are composed of thermoplastic resin polymers such as polyurethane (PU), polyethylene terephthalate (PET), polyethylene terephthalate glycol (PETG), and polyvinyl chloride. The thermoplastic material which is suitable for preparing aligners are polyethylene terephthalate glycol (PETG), since PETG is a non-amorphous co-polymer of PET and is a hard material with robust mechanical materials, formability, fatigue resistance, and dimensional stability.
