Synthesis and biodegradation evaluation of nano-Si and nano-Si/TiO2 coatings on biodegradable Mg-Ca alloy in simulated body fluid
In the present study, nano-Si and nano-Si/TiO2 composite coatings have been successfully synthesized on the surface of Mg-1 wt%Ca alloy by the physical vapor deposition (PVD) method. The surface morphology and compositions of the coated specimens were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourie...
