Heat resistance higher than typical PLA is achieved by addition of a nucleating agent and PDLA homopolymer. Data is for samples produced from Puralact L and D lactide monomers; Purac also produces high stereo optical purity lactide monomers. PLA is 100% biobased and is both recyclable and compostable. PLA can be used in a broad range of applications from molded plastic parts to textiles, foams, and films.Information provide by Corbion. |
