Improved corrosion resistance and mechanical properties of biodegradable Mg–4Zn–xSr alloys: effects of heat treatment, Sr additions, and multi-directional forging

The effects of Sr additions, heat treatment (T4 and T6), and multi-directional forging on the microstructural evolution, mechanical properties and biodegradability of Mg–4Zn–xSr alloys were investigated. Corrosion behavior of the alloys was evaluated by the polarization and hydrogen evolution tests....
