Microstructure, Mechanical Properties, and in Vitro Corrosion Behavior of Biodegradable Zn-1Fe-xMg Alloy

Zinc (Zn), one of the promising candidates for biodegradable implant materials, has excellent biocompatibility and biodegradability. In this study, as-cast Zn1FexMg (x ≤ 1.5 wt %) alloys were prepared to systematically explore the effects of magnesium (Mg) alloying on their microstructures, mechanic...
