PLA is a bioplastic that is biodegradable. Explain how is is created and why it is biodegradable.
Ratling [72]

Explanation:

<h3>PLA is a polyester produced by fermentation under controlled conditions of a carbohydrate source like corn starch or sugarcane. ... The starch is then mixed with acid or enzymes and heated. This process “breaks” starch into dextrose (D-glucose), or corn sugar.</h3>

<h3>PLA is a polymer made from high levels of polylactic acid molecules. </h3><h3>For PLA to biodegrade, you must break up the polymer by adding </h3><h3>water to it (a process known as hydrolyzing). Heat and moisture are required for hydrolyzing to occur.</h3>

<h3>PLA consists of renewable raw materials and is biodegradable in industrial composting plants. </h3><h3>However, due to the lack of infrastructure, it is difficult to </h3><h3>compost PLA industrially or to</h3><h3> recycle it.</h3>
