Polylactic acid or polylactide (PLA, Poly) is a biodegradable thermoplastic aliphatic polyester derived from renewable resources, such as corn starch (in the United States and Canada), tapioca roots, chips or starch (mostly in Asia), or sugarcane (in the rest of the world).eing able to degrade into innocuous lactic acid, PLA is used as medical implants in the form of anchors, screws, plates, pins, rods, and as a mesh. Depending on the exact type used, it breaks down inside the body within 6 months to 2 years.
Poly (acrylic acid) (PAA) is hygroscopic, brittle and colorless in nature with Tg at nearly 106 o C. At temperatures above 200 to 250 o C, it loses water and becomes an insoluble crosslinked polymer anhydride. synthesizing poly(N-isopropylacrylamid e)-block-PAA copolymer which responds to both temperature and pH stimuli 2. â¢ in preparing block copolymer of oligo (methyl methacrylate)/PAA for micellar delivery of hydrophobic drugs 3. â¢ as thickening agent for adhesives.
