Influence of homogenization treatment on the degradation behavior of Zn-3Mg alloy in simulated body fluid solution

This paper reports a degradation study of Zn-(3 wt%) Mg alloy proposed for biodegradable medical implants. The alloy was cast from high-purity raw materials and homogenized at 370 ° C for 15 h under vacuum and water quenched. The effect of homogenization on microstructure and degradation behavior in...
