Effect of forging process on microstructure, mechanical and corrosion properties of biodegradable Mg-1Ca alloy

The performance of Mg–1Ca alloy, a biodegradable metallic material, may be improved by hot working in order that it may be of use in bone implant applications. In this study, Mg–1Ca cast alloy was preheated to different temperatures before undergoing forging process with various forging speeds. Macr...
