Ideas with chemicas

I've had this idea where I could decompose PLA (Polylactic Acid) with sodium hydroxide (aka the chemical used for decloging any organic-based thing in a drain) which is a base. My stupid industrialised brain just said

If the plastic is an acid, and the drain thing is a base, therefore it could do something funny.

Apparently it can1. So, in the near future, I will try decomposing all the scrap-byproduct PLA that I've been saving for the last 3years and see if something happens.

I will publish it once I start it.
