Enhancement of corrosion resistance and biocompatibility of Mg-Nd-Zn-Zr alloy achieved with phosphate coating for vascular stent application

We have developed a convenient chemical conversion method of preparing a Mg3(PO4)2 coating with a lamellar structure of about 1–5 μm width on Mg-Nd-Zn-Zr (denoted as JDBM) alloy, aiming to improve the corrosion resistance and biological response. The protective effect of the phosphate coating on JDB...
