The combination of high strength, light weight, and natural biodegradability renders
magnesium (Mg)-based alloys promising in orthopedic implants and cardiovascular stents …

Nowadays, the need for bio‐implants, which can gradually degrade after fulfilling the
therapeutic tasks is continuously increasing. Under such situation, magnesium (Mg) and its …

The as-cast, homogenized, and peak-aged AZ63 alloys are investigated via microstructure
observation, EDS analysis, hydrogen evolution, and electrochemical tests. The results …

The designing idea for the chemical conversion coating with high corrosion resistance (CR)
and low electrical contact resistance (ECR) on AZ91D Mg alloy was presented. The main …

Magnesium (Mg) and its alloys have been regarded as one of the most promising
biodegradable implant materials, whereas the rapid degradation rate and potential …

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 …

This work reports the design and preparation of novel organic (polyvinyl alcohol, PVA)-
inorganic (neodymium nitrate, Nd (NO 3) 3) hybrid coatings on micro-arc oxidation (MAO) …

Tantalum (Ta) is introduced to the surface of the ZK60 Mg alloy by reactive magnetron
sputtering to enhance the corrosion resistance and cytocompatibility. The film thickness and …

Magnesium (Mg) and its alloys have been suggested as a promising next-generation
orthopedic implant material. However, fast degradation in the physiological environment and …
