Influence of Titanium Coating Thickness on Microstructure, Residual Stress, and Corrosion Behaviour of Magnetron-Sputtered WE43 Magnesium Alloy
Magnesium alloys are attractive for temporary orthopaedic applications because of their biodegradability and favourable mechanical properties; however, their relatively rapid degradation under physiological conditions remains a challenge. In this study, the microstructural evolution, residual stress and electrochemical...
