Influence of Compressive Stress to the Corrosion Rate of Magnesium

Article Preview

Abstract:

Magnesium has made an attention as implant material. Because it is decomposed and absorbed in the body, and its mechanical strength is stronger than that of polymers. It is, however, reported that the corrosion rate increases under the compressive elastic stress. In the other hand, it decreases in the specimen whose surface is applied to compressive residual stress by laser shot peening. This implies that compressive plastic deformation reduces the corrosion rate. In the present paper, the corrosion rate of magnesium that was plastically deformed by uniform high compressive stress was researched. As the result, the corrosion rate decreased as the compressive stress increased.
