Description Poly(L-lactide) (PLLA) and its copolymers are among the most studied biodegradable polymers. PLLA is a crystalline polymer with good mechanical properties. The applications of PLLA are mainly concentrated in biomedical applications.
Application This poly(L-lactide) is a well-defined, biodegradable polymer which is functionalized with an alcohol on one end and an acrylate on the other. Acrylates are commonly used in polymerizations or in ligatation to thiols with thiol-ene click chemistry. Polylactide is commonly used in several applications including drug delivery, compatibilizer, emulsifier, thermoplastic elastomer or impact-resistant plastic.
Features And Benefits Non-toxic and good biocompatibility
