The initial microstructure plays an important role in determining the spatial and temporal evolution of the microstructure during friction stir welding (FSW). The overall kinetics of microstructural evolution is location sensitive and the effect of the process strain, strain rate and thermal cycle creates complexities. In the present study, magnesium based WE43 alloy has been welded employing t...

The hydroxyapatite layer was deposited on the commercial magnesium alloy of AZ91 by electrophoretic deposition route, and corrosion behavior applied layers studied polarization electrochemical impedance spectroscopy at Simulated Body Fluid (SBF) solution. best resistance improvement obtained for sample synthesized 40 V within 4 minutes. Also, morphology coated samples atomic force microscopy (A...

Magnesium (Mg) and its alloys, including Mg-9%Al-1%Zn (AZ91), are biodegradable metals with potential use as temporary orthopedic implants. Invasive orthopedic procedures can provoke an inflammatory response that produces hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) and an acidic environment near the implant. This study assessed the influence of inflammation on both the corrosion and mechanical properties of AZ91....
