Quantifying the influence of calcium ion concentration on the corrosion of high-purity magnesium, AZ91, WE43 in modified Hanks’ solutions
The corrosion rate in a modified Hanks’ solution (containing no Ca ^2+ ions) was higher than in Hanks’ solution. The increase was by a factor of ∼12 for HP Mg and AZ91, and a factor of ∼6 for WE43. This quantitatively highlights the critical role of Ca ^2+ ions for Mg corrosion in synthetic body flu...
