Microstructure and microhardness of carbonate apatite particle-reinforced Mg composite consolidated by warm compaction for biodegradable implant application

Magnesium-based composites with carbonate apatite reinforcement are attractive biodegradable implant materials. In this study, we observed the effect of carbonate apatite content (5, 10, and 15% wt.) and milling time (3, 5, and 7 h) on the microstructure and microhardness of magnesium-carbonate apat...
