ROP of L‐lactide is generally the most preferred route for preparing high‐molecular‐weight polylactide due to the possibility of an accurate control of the chemistry and thus varying the properties of the resulting polymers in a more controlled manner. This makes ROP well suited for a large‐scale process. Polymerizations of lactide have successfully been carried out by using melt polymerization, bulk polymerization, solution polymerization, and suspension polymerization techniques. Each of these methods has its own advantages and disadvantages, but melt polymerization is generally considered the most simple and reproducible method and will be discussed later in detail [109].
