Biodegradable Mg-based materials for stents and bone implants
Zemková, Mária ; Král, Robert (advisor) ; Stráská, Jitka (referee)
The bachelor thesis is focused on the effect of mechanical processing rotary swaging (RS), specifically on the microstructure, mechanical properties and corrosion properties. The investigation was performed on the magnesium alloy AE42 with a different number of RS passes, which can be useful for medical applications. RS is more efficient and cheaper alternative to different material processing methods producing fine-grained struc- ture. Fine-grain structure with grain boundaries with high angle misorientation was achieved by this process. Microstructure was inhomogeneous - the grain size decreased from the surface to the center. An improvement of mechanical properties with the increase in the number of swaging steps was observed. Processing also led to a decrease in corrosion resistance in this alloy. Microstructure development was investigated by electron microscopy scanning. Development of mechanical properties was characterized by compression deformation tests and microhardness measurements. Linear pola- rization method was used for the interpretation of corrosion resistance. 1
