Enhancing room-temperature mechanical properties and creep resistance of pure zinc through magnesium alloying

Zinc is a promising biodegradable metal for medical implants due to its biocompatibility and moderate degradation rate. However, Zn is susceptible to creep deformation even at human body temperature (∼37 °C), which can compromise the long-term mechanical integrity of implants. Thus, improving the cr...
