8 pagesDate: February 10, 2020

Abstract

Biodegradable implant metals and its alloys such as iron (Fe), magnesium (Mg), and Zinc (Zn) have attracted extensive interest in biomedical applications. Low mechanical strength of Zn, significant slower degradation of Fe and rapid degradation Mg impede their clinic application. Further research is going on the development of biodegradable metal matrix composite owing to best suited for biomedical applications. This article delivers a review of biodegradable metal matrix composites based on corrosion resistance, biodegradable behavior, biocompatibility, and mechanical properties as favorable implant materials for orthopedic applications.

Keyphrases: Orthopedic implant materials, biocompatibility, biodegradable
