What is PLA?
01 Polylactic acid Polylactic acid, also known as polylactide, is a polyester polymer obtained by polymerizing lactic acid as the main raw material, and is a new type of biodegradable material. Polylactic acid has good thermal stability, processing temperature of 170-230 ℃, and good solvent resistance. It can be processed in various ways, such as extrusion, spinning, biaxial stretching, and injection blow molding. Products made from polylactic acid not only have biodegradability, but also good biocompatibility, glossiness, transparency, hand feel, and heat resistance. 02 Advantages of Polylactic Acid 1) Good biodegradability Polylactic acid is a new type of biodegradable material with good biodegradability. After use, it can be completely degraded by microorganisms in nature, ultimately producing carbon dioxide and water without polluting the environment. This is very beneficial for protecting the environment and is recognized as an environmentally fri...
