Stereocomplex formation in polylactide blends arises from the specific interaction of poly(L-lactide) (PLLA) and its enantiomer poly(D-lactide) (PDLA). When mixed in an equimolar ratio under ...
Behind every great polymer is a great monomer. That’s the theory that has prompted two biobased chemical companies, NatureWorks and Corbion Purac, to invest in new facilities that produce lactide.
