Abstract Scope |
Nutrient metal implants designed to absorb into the body over time promise a future with fewer follow up surgical procedures and long-term complications. Alloys based on magnesium hold the most promise for widespread implementation in these applications. Absorbable magnesium devices generally benefit from materials with increased strength, ductility, and localized corrosion resistance. High shear deformation techniques like ECAP can improve properties in each of these three categories. Continuous ECAP processing offers ultrafine grain benefits of traditional ECAP, but on a production-level scale. This presentation will review the implementation to-date of continuous ECAP processing on Mg alloys. |
