The Influence of Ca on Mechanical Properties of the Mg–Ca–Zn–RE–Zr Alloy for Orthopedic Applications
The 0.5% Ca alloy offered superior tribological stability and better shock absorption, making it suitable for applications requiring long-term stability. The study highlighted the potential of both compositions based on the specific requirements of biodegradable orthopedic implants.
