Abstract

Poly(lactic acid) (PLA) is a highly versatile, biodegradable, aliphatic polyester derived from 100% renewable resources, such as corn and sugar beets. Because of the degradation mechanism, PLA is ideally suited for many applications in the environment where recovery of the product is not practical, such as agricultural mulch films and bags. Composting of post consumer PLA items is also a viable solution for many PLA products. (omitted)
