The in vivo and in vitro corrosion behavior of MgO/Mg-Zn-Ca composite with different Zn/Ca ratio

The effect of Zn/Ca ratio on the corrosion behavior of Mg–3Zn-0.2Ca-1.0MgO (3ZX) and Mg–1Zn-0.2Ca-1.0MgO (ZX) was investigated on the as-extruded specimens. Microstructure observations revealed that the low Zn/Ca ratio led to the grain growth from 1.6 µm in 3ZX to 8.1 µm in ZX. At the same time, the...
