| Popis: | In recent years, metallic biomaterial having properties like biodegradable, biocompatible and good mechanical properties have been more desirable for orthopaedic implant applications. Magnesium based materials are extensively used in biomedical applications owing to desirable properties. Pure Magnesium can degrade too fast and lose its mechanical integrity earlier than tissue healing in a physiological environment that limits its implant application. Mg alloys and Mg matrix composites have suitable biodegradability along with excellent mechanical strength. For Mg alloys, not all alloying elements are biocompatible which limit their applications. Mg matrix composites, as biomaterials, can produce adjustable biodegradation rate and mechanical properties in physiological environments. The present review paper is focused on recent research works on Mg matrix composites for orthopaedic implant applications. |
