X-ray diffraction (XRD) was used to identify the phases. Microstructure and properties of laser melted layer of AZ31B magnesium alloy were observed or tested by means of optical microscope (OM), scanning electron microscope (SEM), micro-hardness equipment and electrochemical corrosion equipment etc. The results show that the microstructure of laser melted layer becomes finer significantly and uniform. Compared with the substrate, the content of β-Mg17 Al12 phase of melted layer decreases comparatively. Microhardness of the laser melted layer is improved to 50 -95 HV0. 05 as compared to 40 -45 HV0.05 of the AZ31B Mg alloy substrate. The results of electrochemical corrosion show that the corrosion resistance of laser surface melted layer has been improved.展开更多

In this study, two tumor cells, MG63 and KB, were cultured directly on a pure Mg with and without MAO coating to evaluate their cytotoxic effects on the tumor cells. It was found that both MG63 cells and KB cells adhered better on the surface of the coated Mg samples than those on the pure Mg samples. However, the survivals of two kinds of tumor cells were obviously inhibited on both Mg samples with and without coating, compared with that on the pure titanium. In addition, the survival of MG63 cells was more susceptive to the Mg degradation compared with the KB cells. Thus, the application of such effect should take account of that the degradation of Mg based metal may result in different cytotoxic effect on different cells.展开更多
