The Biocompatibility and Self-Healing Effect of a Biopolymer’s Coating on Zn Alloy for Biomedical Applications

The objective of this study was to formulate dip coatings, incorporating casein, NaOH, and nanocrystalline hydroxyapatite (nanoHAp), with self-healing properties for application on ZnMg3.2 wt.% alloy in the field of biomedical applications. This study hypothesizes that the self-healing mechanism wit...
