3D thixo-printing: A novel approach for additive manufacturing of biodegradable Mg-Zn alloys

A simple and widely used additive manufacturing technique for polymeric materials is fused filament fabrication (FFF). In the semi-solid state, metallic materials may show rheological features comparable to those of polymers. Thus, they can be processed accordingly. The use of biodegradable Mg-based...
