L(-)-Lactide, ≥ 99.5%

Product Description

L(-)-Lactide is a highly purified cyclic diester of lactic acid, serving as a key precursor for polylactic acid (PLA) and its copolymers. This bio-based, biodegradable monomer is widely used in medical, pharmaceutical, and packaging applications. Its stereospecificity ensures high crystallinity in PLA, making it suitable for high-strength bioresorbable materials.

Applications:
Biodegradable Polymers: Used in the synthesis of PLA for sustainable and medical applications.
Medical Implants & Sutures: Forms bioresorbable materials for surgical applications.
Drug Delivery Systems: Provides a biodegradable matrix for controlled pharmaceutical release.
Eco-Friendly Packaging: Enables compostable alternatives to conventional plastics.
