Overview

Description

Non-functionalized polylactic acid (PLA) microspheres are small spherical particles made from polylactic acid, a biodegradable and bioactive polymer. These microspheres have gained attention due to their biocompatibility, tunable physical and chemical properties, and versatility in various applications.

Application

These microspheres are widely used in drug delivery systems, acting as carriers that encapsulate pharmaceutical agents for controlled release. Additionally, they serve valuable roles in tissue engineering as scaffolding materials, as well as in the cosmetic industry for products like exfoliants and delivery of active ingredients.
