Magnesium and its alloys are ideal for biodegradable implants due to their biocompatibility and their low-stress shielding. However, they can corrode too rapidly in the biological environment. The objective of this research was to develop heat treatments to slow the corrosion of high purified magnesium and AZ31 alloy in simulated body fluid at 37{deg}C. Heat treatments were performed at different temperatures and times. Hydrogen evolution, weight loss, PDP, and EIS methods were used to measure the corrosion rates. Results show that heat treating can increase the corrosion resistance of HP-Mg by 2x and AZ31 by 10x.

Magnesium alloys have been considered to be favorable biodegradable metallic materials used in orthopedic and cardiovascular applications. We introduce NH+2 to the AZ31 Mg alloy surface by ion implantation at the energy of 50 KeV with doses ranging f rom 1e16 ions/cm2 to 1e17 ions/cm2 to improve its corrosion resistance and biocompatibility. Surface morphology, mechanical properties, corrosion behavior and biocompatibility are studied in the experiments. The analysis confirms that the modified surface with smoothness and hydrophobicity significantly improves the corrosion resistance and biocompatibility while maintaining the mechanical property of the alloy.
Magnesium and its alloys are ideal candidates for biodegradable implants. However, they can dissolve too rapidly in the human body for most applications. In this research, high purified magnesium (HP-Mg) was coated with stearic acid in order to slow the corrosion rate of magnesium in simulated body fluid at 37{deg}C. HP-Mg was anodized to form an oxide/hydroxide layer, then it was immersed in a stearic acid solution. Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy and potentiodynamic polarization were used to estimate the corrosion rate of HP-Mg specimens. The results confirm that the hydrophobic coating can temporarily decrease the corrosion rate of HP-Mg by 1000x.

Despite decades of research, metallic corrosion remains a long-standing challenge in many engineering applications. Specifically, designing a material that can resist corrosion both in abiotic as well as biotic environments remains elusive. Here we d esign a lightweight sulfur-selenium (S-Se) alloy with high stiffness and ductility that can serve as a universal corrosion-resistant coating with protection efficiency of ~99.9% for steel in a wide range of diverse environments. S-Se coated mild steel shows a corrosion rate that is 6-7 orders of magnitude lower than bare metal in abiotic (simulated seawater and sodium sulfate solution) and biotic (sulfate-reducing bacterial medium) environments. The coating is strongly adhesive and mechanically robust. We attribute the high corrosion resistance of the alloy in diverse environments to its semi-crystalline, non-porous, anti-microbial, and viscoelastic nature with superior mechanical performance, enabling it to successfully block a variety of diffusing species.
Magnesium alloys have been considered to be potential biocompatible metallic materials. Further improvement on the anti-corrosion is expected to make this type of materials more suitable for biomedical applications in the fields of orthopedics, cardi ovascular surgery and others. In this paper, we introduce a method of carboxyl ion (COOH+) implantation to reduce the degradation of ZK60 Mg alloy and improve its functionality in physiological environment. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and atomic force microscopy (AFM) experiments show the formation of a smooth layer containing carbaxylic group, carbonate, metal oxides and hydroxides on the ion implanted alloy surface. Corrosion experiments and in vitro cytotoxicity tests demonstrate that the ion implantation treatment can both reduce the corrosion rate and improve the biocompatibility of the alloy. The promising results indicate that organic functional group ion implantation may be a practical method of improving the biological and corrosion properties of magnesium alloys.
Polycrystalline bulk Mn:ZnO ceramics with Mn nominal concentrations of 6, 11, 17 and 22 at.% were prepared trough solid-state reaction method and subjected to a heat treatment in reducing atmosphere (Ar (95%) and H2 (5%)). The samples were studied wi th particular emphasis on their compositions, structural, and magnetic properties. A detailed microstructural and chemical analysis confirms the Mn doping of the wurtzite ZnO structure mainly at the surface of the ZnO grains. For the samples with higher Mn content, the secondary phases ZnMn2O4 and Mn1-xZnxO (Zn-doped MnO) were detected for the as prepared and the heat treated samples, respectively. The structural change of the secondary phases under heat treatment, from ZnMn2O4 to Mn1-xZnxO, confirms the effectiveness of the heat treatment in to reduce the valence of the metallic ions and in the formation of oxygen vacancies into the system. In spite of the induced defects, the magnetic analysis present only a paramagnetic behavior with an antiferromagnetic coupling between the Mn ions. In the context of the bound magnetic polaron theory, it is concluded that oxygen vacancies are not the necessary defect to promote the desired ferromagnetic order at room temperature.
