Accelerated biodegradation of iron-based implants via tantalum-implanted surface nanostructures
In recent years, pure iron (Fe) has attracted significant attention as a promising biodegradable orthopedic implant material due to its excellent mechanical and biological properties. However, in physiological conditions, Fe has an extremely slow degradation rate with localized and irregular degrada...
