Article Description

The microstructure, corrosion behavior, and cytocompatibility of as-cast and extruded Mg-Zn-Mn-(0, 1.5)Sr alloys in Hank’s solution are investigated. Grain refinement and preferred texture are confirmed after extrusion, while increase in dislocation density and fragmentation of Mg 17 Sr 2 phases are the distinct features of Sr-free and Sr-containing alloys, respectively. Corrosion rate of Sr-free alloy is significantly accelerated by extrusion, while alloyed Sr eliminates this deterioration process. Alloying of Sr decreases the corrosion rate and enhances the cytocompatibility of the extruded Mg-Zn-Mn alloy without affecting the corrosion penetration depth, demonstrating the superiority of Sr alloying for the extruded magnesium alloy as implant materials.
