摘要 Together with the mechanical properties,the degradation rate is an important factor for biodegradable implants.The ZKX50 Mg alloy is a suitable candidate to be used as a biodegradable implant due to its favorable biocompatibility and mechanical properties.Current research investigates the degradation rate and corrosion behavior of the ZKX50 as a function of the microstructure constituents and their morphology.Since grain refinement is the main strengthening mechanism for the ZKX50,the effect of the microstructure refinement on the corrosion rate was studied by applying electron beam processing(EBP)and friction stir processing(FSP)on the ZKX50 cast alloy.To study the effect of the microstructure constituents and their morphology a subsequent solution heat treatment(HT)was applied to the processed samples.The results show that the EBP and FSP lead to a uniform and remarkably refined microstructure of the ZKX50 alloy and homogeneous distribution of the intermetallic phases.The results of electrochemical corrosion tests together with the microstructure characterization show that microgalvanic corrosion is the predominant mechanism that occurs between the Ca2Mg6Zn3 intermetallic phase andα-Mg matrix.According to the results attained through the electrochemical tests,the EBPed-HT ZKX50 alloy shows higher corrosion resistance compared to all other conditions immersed in 0.5 wt.%NaCl solution.The dissolution and spheroidizing of Ca2Mg6Zn3 particles during the solution heat treatment provides higher corrosion resistance mainly by decreasing the microgalvanic corrosion.The microstructure of the heat-treated samples does not show a significant grain coarsening which can degrade the enhancement of the mechanical properties achieved by the EBP and FSP.
