Poly(L-lactide)

Poly(L-lactide) (PLLA) is a biodegradable and biocompatible polymer derived from the L-lactic acid monomer. PLLA is a semicrystalline polymer known for its high mechanical strength, slow degradation rate, and excellent processability, making it widely used in drug delivery, tissue engineering, and biomedical applications.

At ResolveMass Laboratories Inc., we offer high-quality PLLA with varied molecular weights, end-group functionalities, and tailored properties to meet the requirements of pharmaceutical, biomedical, and research applications. Its tunable characteristics allow scientists to design controlled-release formulations, biodegradable scaffolds, and implantable devices with predictable performance.

Key applications of PLLA include:

• Sustained and controlled drug delivery: PLLA-based microspheres, nanoparticles, and implants provide long-term release of small molecules, peptides, and proteins.

• Tissue engineering and regenerative medicine: Biodegradable scaffolds and matrices supporting cellular growth, tissue regeneration, and structural integrity.

• Medical device fabrication: Biocompatible implants, stents, and surgical sutures with controlled degradation profiles.

• Polymer blends and copolymer synthesis: Combining PLLA with other biodegradable polymers such as PLGA or PCL to achieve tailored mechanical, thermal, and degradation properties.

All PLLA products from ResolveMass are carefully synthesized and rigorously characterized using techniques such as GPC, NMR, and thermal analysis to ensure consistent molecular weight, polydispersity, and purity. Our PLLA polymers provide researchers and developers with reliable and reproducible materials for cutting-edge biomedical and pharmaceutical research.
