Paint and Coatings Industry
Lactic acid can be applied to the binding system of water-based coatings as a pH regulator and a synthetic agent. Such as: the coating of the electrodeposit. Methyl lactate and butyl lactate are synthetic agents for paints, coatings and resins. Butyl lactate is widely used as a brightener in painting and baking of automotive appliances.

Medical materials
Polylactic acid is a condensation polymer of lactic acid, which is hydrolyzed into lactic acid in human tissues. Lactic acid is a metabolic product of human body and can be further changed into carbon dioxide and water. Therefore, polylactic acid has good degradability and can be made into various medical materials for different purposes, such as degradable sutures, fracture internal fixation, tissue repair materials and filling materials for diagnosis and treatment of retinal detachment. In addition, because polylactic acid itself is easy to form a film, it can be used as an ideal material for pharmaceutical delivery and is widely used in the sustained/controlled release system of drugs.

Complexing agent for electroless nickel plating
Lactic acid has a complexing constant for nickel and is one of the commonly used complexing agents for electroless nickel plating. Compared with other complexing agents, lactic acid has strong stability in the plating solution, and the deposition rate can be controlled to ensure uniform and fine plating and stable plating solution. Lactic acid has the ability of synergy, and can form binary or multiple complex complexing agents with sodium citrate, malic acid, succinic acid and other complexing agents, further meeting the needs of chemical nickel plating industry for complexing agents.
