Magnesium and magnesium alloys have attracted growing attention over the last decades
as lightweight materials for a wide range of applications. In particular, WE series magnesium …

The effects of zinc content (2 and 4 wt%), heat treatment (solution-treated and T6), as well as
hot deformation (extrusion and multi-directional forging (MDF)) on the microstructure …

The effects of nano-CaO contents on the microstructure, mechanical properties and
corrosion resistance of lean Mg-1Zn alloy were investigated. The results showed that the …

A magnesium alloy containing essential, non-toxic, biodegradable elements such as Ca and
Zn has been fabricated using a novel twin-roll casting process (TRC). Microstructure …

In this study, in order to investigate the effect of Ca addition on elevated temperature
mechanical properties of AZ series magnesium alloys, 3 different alloys (AZ21, AZX211, and …

Biomedical biodegradable materials have attracted widespread attention since they are
naturally decomposed in the body. In particular, Mg-Zn-Ca systems are the most popular …

Magnesium-based biodegradable metal bone implants exhibit superior mechanical
properties compared to biodegradable polymers for orthopedic and cardiovascular stents. In …

In this paper, WE43-xCa (0, 1, 2 wt%) magnesium alloys were prepared by electromagnetic
stirring (EMS) casting, and the solid solution-treated WE43-xCa (1, 2 wt%) alloys were …

Biocompatible Mg–2Zn–1Ca–0.3 Mn is synthesized using the disintegrated metal deposition
process and subjected to two types of cryogenic treatments (refrigeration [RF] at− 20 and …

Abstract Mg–Zn–Ca alloys have been widely used as biodegradable orthopedic and
cardiovascular scaffolds because of their non-cytotoxicity, remarkable biodegradability …
