Wide Range Mechanical Customization of Mg-Gd Alloys With Low Degradation Rates by Extrusion

Wide Range Mechanical Customization of Mg-Gd Alloys With Low Degradation Rates by Extrusion

Currently, only a few magnesium alloys have been approved for implant applications. For biomedical purposes, the choice of the alloying elements is a critical parameter and rare earth elements have been proven to be mechanically suitable and biologically tolerable. In this comprehensive study, tailo...
