Magnesium (Mg) alloys have great potential as biodegradable materials for medical device. However, their susceptibility to corrosion poses a significant challenge for practical applications. In this study, the poly(trimethylene carbonate)-dimethacrylate (PTMC-dMA) was employed as a coating material for ZE21B magnesium alloys. Upon UV irradiation, the PTMC-dMA macromer undergoes cross-linking to form a uniform PTMC coating with a thickness of approximately 5 μm, effectively protecting the magnesium alloy. The corrosion resistance in simulated body fluid (SBF) was evaluated through immersion testing, which showed minimal hydrogen generation (0.16 mL/cm2) during the initial 24-h period and slight corrosion observed on the PTMC-coated magnesium alloy surface after continuous immersion for 21 days. The silane coupling agent significantly enhanced the adhesive performance between the polymer and alloy. Micro-scratch tests revealed adhesion forces of 3.79 N and 5.75 N for coatings without and with the silane agent, respectively. Electrochemical tests also demonstrated the efficacy of silane treatment, showing corrosion currents of 2.100 × 108 A/cm2 for silane-treated samples compared 6.263 × 107 A/cm2 for untreated ones. Given its exceptional tensile and protective properties, this coated material is ideal for intricate bioresorbable applications, like endovascular bioresorbable stents. |
