The electrochemical behaviour of biodegradable magnesium alloy Mg-0.8 Ca was
evaluated in a mammalian cell culture medium (MEM) and NaCl solutions (0.9 wt.%, 0.3 …

The microstructure of a commercial AZ91 Mg alloy was modified via equal channel angular
pressing (ECAP) and subsequent aging. Immersion corrosion testing in 3.5 wt.% NaCl …

The effects of heat treatment on the microstructure and corrosion behavior of AZT511
magnesium alloy were investigated by microscopic analyses, immersion tests, and …

Of the alloying additions to magnesium to date, Ta has not been widely studied. Herein, the
effect of Ta on the microstructure and corrosion of Mg-6.7 Y-2.5 Zn was investigated using …

Magnesium-based materials have received extensive attention as biomedical implant
materials due to their good mechanical properties and ability to degrade naturally in vivo …

Abstract A fine-grained 55Mg-35Pb-9.2 Al-0.8 B alloy was fabricated through equal channel
angular pressing (ECAP) with the addition of rare earth (RE). The corrosion behavior of the …

Benefits of RE addition on Mg alloys strength and corrosion resistance are widely reported
but their effects on biodegradability and biocompatibility are still of concern. This paper …

Continuous forging extrusion (CFE) is a newly developed extrusion process to refine grains
of wrought magnesium alloys. However, at lower extrusion temperatures, CFE also easily …

Magnesium-Zinc-Zirconium (Mg-Zn-Zr) alloys have caught considerable attention in medical
applications where biodegradability is critical. The combination of their good …

Zn–Ag alloys are particularly promising for application as biodegradable implant materials
due to their harmless degradation products, suitable degradation rate, and remarkable …
