Degradation Rate Control of MgxZnyCa Alloys by PEO Coatings
Magnesium alloys are actively researched for biodegradable implants in order to avoid an implant-removal surgery after the healing process. However, the high degradation rate of Mg leads to hydrogen evolution and may increase the pH of the environment, causing an inflammatory response. In the presen...
