Traditional orthopedic metal implants, such as titanium (Ti), Ti alloys, and cobalt-chromium
(Co-Cr) alloys, cannot be degraded in vivo. Fracture patients is must always suffer a second …

Abstract The binary Mg-Ca alloys are drawing increasing attention as temporary implant
materials because of their excellent biocompatibility, biodegradability, and good mechanical …

Layered double hydroxide (LDH) coatings on magnesium (Mg) alloys shine brightly in the
field of corrosion protection because of their special ion-exchange function. State-of-the-art …

Biodegradable alloys and especially magnesium-based alloys are considered by many
researchers as materials to be used in medicine due to their biocompatibility and excellent …

Mg alloy suffers from poor corrosion resistance due to the corrosive microdefects including
grain boundary, precipitates, and composition segregation, which lead to interfacial …

Biodegradable metals have gained vast attention as befitting candidates for developing
degradable metallic implants. Such implants are primarily employed for temporary …

The combination of light weight, strength, biodegradability, and biocompatibility of
magnesium (Mg) alloys can soon break the paradigm for temporary orthopedic implants. As …

Corrosion protection systems based on hexavalent chromium are traditionally perceived to
be a panacea for many engineering metals including magnesium alloys. However, bans and …

Surface modifications using bioactive coatings can be utilized effectively to tailor the rate of
degradation and enhance biomineralization of magnesium (Mg) alloys. This study examines …

As a new generation of biodegradable hard tissue repair implants, the excessive corrosion
rate in a liquid environment and the potential cytotoxicity of magnesium and its alloys have …
