Corrosion of Sintered Materials Based on Iron

Abstract

This paper addresses the topic of biodegradable bone implants. Presently, titanium alloys, known for their ability to reinforce bone structure, are utilized for fracture fixation. Nevertheless, post-healing, their extraction from the body becomes necessary. Biodegradable implants serve the same purpose but undergo gradual degradation upon exposure to bodily fluids. Consequently, the need for additional surgical procedures for their removal is obviated.
