Effect of Mn Element Addition on the Microstructure, Mechanical Properties, and Corrosion Properties of Mg-3Zn-0.2Ca Alloy

Magnesium-zinc-calcium alloys have unique advantages of being used as biomedical bone implants since their mechanical properties and biocompatibility are similar to human tissues. However, insufficient strength and poor corrosion resistance have been the major problems to stunt the application. In t...
