Corrosion Measurement and Hardness Test of Magnesium-Tri Calcium Phosphate Composite Fabricated by Stir Casting
Abstract: Magnesium MMC is preferred in applications requiring high-quality materials and has replaced monolithic materials. Bio-implants traditionally used are titanium, steel, and nickel-titanium alloys, however, their removal necessitates surgery, which is costly and painful. While biodegradable 3D-printed implants are effective and eliminate the need for a second surgery, they remain expensive. After several studies to solve this issue, the development of biodegradable implants is considered. Magnesium possesses good biodegradable properties. An …

A Review on Current Status of Biodegradable Surgical Implant Materials
Abstract: Since many years, inert metals such as stainless steel, cobalt-chromium and titanium alloys have been the primary biomaterials used for load bearing applications. In order to these metallic implants such as pins, screws and plates for repairing the defects have to be removed by secondary surgery once the bone tissue is healed, which will increase the morbidity, pain and cost. Hence conventional metallic biomaterials are biocompatible but not biodegradable. At …

A Review on Effect of Cryogenic Treatment on Wear Resistant Bearing Materials for Automotive Application
Abstract: Cryogenic processing has come as a successful supplementary process to common heat treatment, especially in improving the wear-resistant performance of materials employed in in-vehicle applications. This sub-zero processing is normally performed following quenching and before tempering, during which materials are subjected to extremely low temperatures, typically around -196°C, for prolonged periods of 24 hours. Cryogenic treatment, which involves subjecting materials to extremely low temperatures, has demonstrated promising results in changing …
