Influence of heat treatment on microstructure and electrochemical behaviors of Mg-Zn binary alloys prepared by gas-phase alloying technique

A Continuous MgF2 Network Structure Encapsulated Mg Alloy Prepared by Selective Laser Melting for Enhanced Biodegradation Resistance

“…

As revolutionary bone implant materials, Mg alloys have gained extensive attention because of their biodegradability, good biocompatibility, and mechanical properties. [1][2][3][4][5][6] Mg is one of the most important divalent ions in the formation of bioapatite and a key factor in bone metabolism. [7] Moreover, it has a similar elastic modulus to the natural bone, which is beneficial for reducing the stress shielding effect.
