Difference between Bioplastic and Polylactic acid

Bioplastic vs. Polylactic acid

Bioplastics are plastics derived from renewable biomass sources, such as vegetable fats and oils, corn starch, or microbiota. Poly(lactic acid) or polylactic acid or polylactide (PLA) is a biodegradable and bioactive thermoplastic aliphatic polyester derived from renewable resources, such as corn starch (in the United States and Canada), cassava roots, chips or starch (mostly in Asia), or sugarcane (in the rest of the world).

Similarities between Bioplastic and Polylactic acid

Bioplastic and Polylactic acid have 11 things in common (in Unionpedia): Aliphatic compound, Corn starch, Fiber, Fused filament fabrication, International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry, Nanoparticle, Polycaprolactone, Polyester, Polyhydroxyalkanoates, Polyhydroxybutyrate, Thermoplastic.

Aliphatic compound

In organic chemistry, hydrocarbons (compounds composed of carbon and hydrogen) are divided into two classes: aromatic compounds and aliphatic compounds (G. aleiphar, fat, oil) also known as non-aromatic compounds.
