A review of additive manufacturing of Mg-based alloys and composite implants
Magnesium based materials are considered promising biodegradable metals for orthopedic bone implant applica-tions as they exhibit similar density and elastic modulus to that of bone, biodegradability, and excellent osteogenic properties. The use of Mg based biomaterials eliminates the limitations of currently used implant materials such as stress shielding and the need for the second surgery. Recently, the development of Mg-based implants has attracted significant attention. Additive manufacturing is one of the effective techniques to develop Mg based implants. Ad-ditive manufacturing which could be named 3D printing is a transformative and rapid method of producing indus-trial parts with in the acceptable dimensional range. Therefore, recent investigations have tried to apply this meth-od for the development of Mg-based implants. This state-of-the-art review focuses on the additive manufacturing of Mg biodegradable materials and their in-vitro corrosion and degradation, and mechanical properties. The future directions to develop Mg biodegradable materials are reported through summarization of current achievements.
