Ag-Introduced Antibacterial Ability and Corrosion Resistance for Bio-Mg Alloys

Bone implants are expected to possess antibacterial ability and favorable biodegradability. Ag possesses broad-spectrum antibacterial effects through destroying the respiration and substance transport of bacteria. In this study, Ag was introduced into Mg-3Zn-0.5Zr (ZK30) via selective laser melting...
