==== Polylactide (PLA) ====
Polylactide (PLA) is a renewable thermoplastic and a polymer. It is derived from the starch of plants such as corn, sugar cane and sugar beet. PLA is biodegradable, as it decays as a result of exposure to heat and moisture. It decomposes forming carbon dioxide and water, which present no danger to the environment.[16][17]
