Abstract
Owing to their biodegradability, superior mechanical properties, and excellent in-vitro/in-vivo biological compatibility, magnesium (Mg) alloys have attracted tremendous attention as innovative body-absorbable biomaterials. Mg-based alloys application and classification based on mechanical strength and corrosion resistance for biomedical implants are discussed in this book chapter. In addition, the effect of alloying elements: Zn, Ca, and RE-elements for property enhancement in Mg alloys has been also presented. Mg-Zn-Ca alloys, show improved tensile strength and corrosion behavior appropriate to bone implants whereas Mg-RE alloys offer superior strength and ductility more suited towards demanding higher performance applications. This review will also consider the difficulties in controlling Mg alloy corrosion rate so that it does not proceed at a dangerous and predictable pace within the body. The possibilities of magnesium alloys to change the face of the biomaterial area with degradable implants give rise to many exciting options for future medical advancements.
