Microstructure and texture evolution of fine-grained Mg-Zn-Y-Nd alloy micro-tubes for biodegradable vascular stents processed by hot extrusion and rapid cooling

Magnesium alloys have narrow available slip result from close-packed hexagonal structure that limit their processing properties. In the recent work, the Mg-2Zn-0.46Y-0.5Nd, as materials for degradable stents, was applied to produce as-extruded micro-tube with an outer diameter of 3.0 mm and a wall t...
