What’s the difference between “Plastic” and “PLA”?

Plastic is a broad term encompassing various synthetic materials, while PLA (Polylactic Acid) is a specific type of bioplastic derived from renewable resources like corn starch or sugarcane. Unlike traditional plastics, PLA is biodegradable and more environmentally friendly. Additionally, PLA has a lower melting point and is commonly used in 3D printing due to its ease of use and biodegradable nature.
