Influence of ultra-fine grain structure on corrosion behaviour of biodegradable Mg-1Ca alloy

Abstract: Biodegradation studies of Mg-1Ca alloy with different microstructures in Ringer's solution reveal corrosion mechanism based on the balance between the anodic dissolution of the secondary phase and hydroxide precipitation, controlled by the secondary phase size and distribution uniformity. Alloy with ultrafine-grain structure shows at least 5-fold improvement in corrosion resistance compared to the coarse-grained alloy due to the separation of the particles of the secondary phase and its continuous intragranula… Show more

“…The intrinsic difference between Mg–Si–Ca alloy and the other two implants is the presence of the second phase. In this study, Mg 2 Ca in Mg–Si–Ca alloy is recognized as an anode in the Mg–Mg2Ca galvanic couple, [ 27 , 28 ] while MgCaSi acts as a cathode in the Mg–MgCaSi couple. [ 29 ] Therefore, the Mg 2 Ca phase is supposed to degrade before the Mg matrix, followed by the degradation of the MgCaSiphase (Equations ( 1 )–( 4 )) [ 30 ] …”

“…In addition to a positive effect on the strength characteristics of magnesium alloys, as noted above, SPD often does not impair their corrosion resistance [15,16,17]. Thus, it was shown for a Mg-1Ca alloy that the formation of a UFG structure after high pressure torsion (HPT) leads to a significant increase in the corrosion resistance of the alloy in Ringer’s solution [31]. The authors argued that the mechanism of increased corrosion resistance is based on a balance between the processes of anodic dissolution of the Ca-containing secondary phase and deposition of hydroxide compounds on the specimen surface, which inhibits corrosion.…”

“…The combination of good biocompatibility and acceptable mechanical properties made magnesium alloys one of the most popular groups of materials for bioresorbable implants [1][2][3][4][5][6][7]. In recent years, research has been increasingly directed towards the development of magnesium alloys for medical applications.…”
