More Details

PLA is a thermoplastic polyester usually synthesized from fermented pulp of corn, cassava, sugarcane, or beet. PLA has good heat sealing and tensile strength, which can be applied in 3D printing, casting, injection molding, extrusion, and mechanical processing. The waste generated during the generation process can be recycled and biodegradable.
