Mesoporous Carbon as Galvanic-Corrosion Activator Accelerates Fe Degradation

Iron (Fe) has attracted intensive attention as a bone implant material because of its inherent biodegradability, favorable biocompatibility and mechanical properties. Nevertheless, it degrades too slowly in a physiological environment, which limits its further clinical application. In this work, mes...
