Cover Story (view full-size image):
Zn-Ag-Cu base alloys are reported to more than meet the mechanical property requirements for biomedical alloys by showing YS values > 300 MPa, UTS close to 400 MPa, and elongations between 18 and 26%. The joint effect of increasing amounts of the second phase (Ag, Cu)Zn4 and a micro-alloy with 0.05% Mg is explored as a measure to improve mechanical properties and meet the requirements for biomedical applications. The manufacture of a Zn-based heteromaterial is reported, whose microstructure and mechanical behavior achieve a synergy of strength and ductility that allows these alloys to achieve the properties required for biomedical applications.
