Acide Polylactic (PLU), uzwi kandi nka Polylacte, ni polyester ya Aliphatic yakozwe nuburaro polymetion ya aside ya lactique yakozwe na microbial fermentation nka monomer. Ikoresha biomass ishobora kongerwa nkikigo, isukari, nimyumbati nkibikoresho fatizo, kandi bifite amakuru menshi kandi birashobora kongerwa. Inzira yumusaruro wa aside polylactike ni karubone nkeya, urugwiro rwibidukikije, kandi ntanduru. Nyuma yo kuyikoresha, ibicuruzwa byayo birashobora gufungirwa no guteshwa agaciro kugirango umenye uruziga muri kamere. Byongeye kandi, ikoreshwa cyane kandi ifite ikiguzi cyo hasi kuruta izindi plastike zisanzwe nka PBAT, PBS, na Pha. Kubwibyo, byabaye ibintu bikora cyane kandi byihuse bizima mumyaka yashize.

Iterambere rya aside polylactike rihabwa agaciro cyane. Muri 2019, ibyifuzo byingenzi kwisi yose mugupakira nameza, ubuvuzi no kwivuriza, ibicuruzwa bya firime, hamwe nibindi masoko cyanyuma bibarwa 66%, 28%, na 3%.

Gukoresha isoko rya Acide Polylactic biracyaganjemo impengamiro ifata hamwe nubuzima buke bwo gukimba, bukurikirwa na etable-iraramba cyangwa imikoreshereze myinshi. Ibicuruzwa byatwaye ibikomoka ku mashini n'amasakoshi bishyigikiwe na Guverinoma, kandi ingano y'isoko irashobora gusimbuka nini mu gihe gito. Isoko ryibicuruzwa bya fibre byatesheje agaciro nkamasanduku na salle yisuku nabyo birashobora kuzamuka bikabije mubisabwa namabwiriza, ariko ikoranabuhanga ryayo riracyafite intambwe. Ibicuruzwa bidasanzwe, nkibicapa bya 3D mumafaranga mato ariko bifite agaciro gake, nibicuruzwa bisaba imikoreshereze yigihe kirekire cyangwa imikoreshereze yubushyuhe, nka electronics hamwe nibikoresho bya elegitoroniki.

Bigereranijwe ko ubushobozi bwa buri mwaka bwa acide ya Polylactique kwisi yose (usibye Ubushinwa) bugera kuri toni zigera kuri 150.000 zigera kuri 200.000.
Mu bijyanye n'uturere, Amerika niyo misaruro minini ya aside inkiko za Acide, ikurikiwe n'Ubushinwa, hamwe n'umugabane w'isoko rya 14% muri 2018. Mu bijyanye no gukoresha mu karere, Amerika iracyakomeza imyanya yacyo. Muri icyo gihe, ni no kohereza ibicuruzwa byinshi ku isi. Muri 2018, Isoko rya Polylactic ku isi hose (PLO) ryahawe agaciro ka miliyoni 659 US $. Nka plastike itesha agaciro ifite imikorere myiza. Abaririho isoko bafite ibyiringiro ku isoko ry'ejo hazaza
