Description :
Corbion Purac is active in a variety of markets, with a focus on natural food ingredients and biobased chemicals including Lactide monomers for Poly Lactic Acid (PLA).

L-Lactide and D-Lactide monomers for PLA PURALACT L® and PURALACT D® are Corbion Purac’s monomers for the bioplastics industry. Lactides are dimers of Lactic Acid and so called building blocks for polymers and the production of other chemicals.

There are two types of Lactides available: D-Lactide and L-Lactide. Corbion Purac’s Lactides are characterized by its high purity which is a great technological and economic advantage during further processing into lactic acid based bioplastics.
