Poly(DL-lactide)

Description:
Poly(DL-lactide), commonly referred to as PDLLA, is a biodegradable and biocompatible polymer derived from the polymerization of DL-lactic acid. It is characterized by its amorphous nature, which contributes to its flexibility and ease of processing. PDLLA exhibits good mechanical properties, making it suitable for various applications, particularly in the biomedical field, such as drug delivery systems and tissue engineering scaffolds. The polymer's degradation occurs through hydrolysis, leading to the formation of non-toxic byproducts, which is advantageous for medical applications. PDLLA has a relatively low glass transition temperature, allowing it to be processed at moderate temperatures. Its properties can be tailored by adjusting the molecular weight and the ratio of the D- and L-lactic acid monomers, influencing its crystallinity and degradation rate. Additionally, PDLLA is soluble in organic solvents like chloroform and dichloromethane, facilitating its use in various formulations. Overall, PDLLA is a versatile polymer with significant potential in sustainable materials and medical applications.
