Biodegradable Fe: Processing Techniques
摘要
Various metallurgical and surface modification techniques such as alloying, surface treatments, and compositing will alter the properties of Fe-based degradable implants. This chapter highlights the importance of post-processing developed materials to enhance the properties of iron implants, ensuring controlled degradation and maintaining mechanical strength during the healing process. This chapter provides valuable insights into how to process and customize the characteristics of iron to meet specific medical needs, particularly in cardiovascular and orthopedic application.
