    摘要: Lactic acid equivalents are recovered from a starting lactide stream by catalytically racemizing a portion of the lactide in the stream at a temperature of 180° C. or below. This increases the proportion of two species of lactide (i.e., at least two of S,S-, R,R- or meso-lactide) at the expense of the third species. The racemized mixture so obtained can be separated to recover some or all of one or more of the lactide species from the remaining lactide species, by a process such as melt crystallization or distillation. Impurities in the starting lactide stream usually are retained mostly in the remaining meso-lactide, so a highly purified S,S- and/or R,R-lactide stream can be produced in this manner. Such a purified S,S- and R,R-lactide stream is suitable for polymerization to form a polylactide.

    摘要: An S,S- and R,R-lactide stream suitable for polymerization is prepared by producing a low molecular weight poly(lactic acid), depolymerizing the low molecular weight poly(lactic acid) to form a mixture of S,S-, R,R- and meso-lactide, and separating meso-lactide from this mixture to form an S,S- and R,R-lactide stream. Meso-lactide is recycled into the process, and shifts the mole fractions of the lactides in the lactide mixture that is produced.
