Problems solved by technology

In China, some scholars have applied microwave radiation technology to the ring-opening polymerization of polylactic acid, which has reduced the cost of polylactic acid to a certain extent; but microwave radiation has not been reported in the direct polycondensation of lactic acid; Only the Hungarian scholar Keki and others have preliminary research, and the obtained polylactic acid has a molecular weight of no more than 2000.

Description

Technical field: [0001] The present invention relates to a method for synthesizing polylactic acid. Background technique: [0002] Polylactic acid is a new type of polymer material. It has good biodegradability, biocompatibility and mechanical strength. It is an ideal biodegradable material. It is used in human tissue repair, wound suture, and controlled release of medicines and pesticides. It has broad application prospects; in some other fields, polylactic acid can replace traditional polymer materials, which can also reduce environmental pollution and harm. There are two main ways to synthesize polylactic acid: ring-opening polymerization method and direct polycondensation method. The ring-opening polymerization method requires high-purity lactide, which is usually prepared by recrystallization. This method has a long route and a complicated process, resulting in high price of polylactic acid, which is difficult to compete with general-purpose plastics. The direct polycondensa...
