Skill Building The Chemistry of PLA

We don’t show the chemical reaction for the formation of PLA from lactic acid because it does not proceed in a single step and is complicated. Even so, you should be able to write a chemical formula for PLA.

  1. a. Circle and label the functional groups in the monomer, lactic acid.
  2. b. When lactic acid polymerizes, explain how you know it is a condensation reaction.
  3. c. What is the repeating unit in PLA?
