PolyMaker site makes it very easy to search up so that was used.
PA6:
PolyMaker
3DXTECH

As for PETG. The polymaker site again and:
IEMAI
SD3D
Ultimaker

As for PC:
Ultimaker
W2filaments
Polymaker
The polymaker site for other versions of it.

ABS:
MGChemicals
3DXTECH
FilamentPM
eSUN

ABS+:
eSUN

Should be noted here HDT (Heat deflection temp) is not the same as Tg (Glass transition temperature) but is close enough
to it as it reflects similar point of the material failing at specified temperature. So the 78C is still incredibly low for an ABS from eSUN. And 73C for the ABS+ gets VERY close to the PETG mark. For comparasion. PolyMaker ABS has a HDT of 98C.

Mostly just updated the Tg of the materials to the correct information.

PA6 in no world has Tg of 150C.
PETG has a Tg thats bit higher.
ABS is closer to 100C then 90C.
PC is closer to 140C in pure material but in 3D printing usually even lower. Around 110-130C.

materials.md: Glass transition temperature & more info about ABS+

The correct naming is glass transition temperature.

While looking at few TDSes of ABS+ from different vendors the Tg was much closer to 75C (And as low as 73C) but since we have not seen issues regarding ABS+
at least recently i have kept it as supported

it would be really helpful to get this merged, I was really confused until I found this PR, maybe @nemgrea (you seemed active recently, I hope it's okay to ping you)
