The Effects of Severe Plastic Deformation and/or Thermal Treatment on the Mechanical Properties of Biodegradable Mg-Alloys

In this study, five MgZnCa alloys with low alloy content and high biocorrosion resistance were investigated during thermomechanical processing. As documented by microhardness and tensile tests, high pressure torsion (HPT)-processing and subsequent heat treatments led to strength increases of up to 2...
