Unique Role of Microstructure of a Bioimplant Zinc Alloy and Protein Content of Simulated Body Fluid in Corrosion and Fracture

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
BSA addition to physiological solutions enhances resistance of a Zn alloy to stress corrosion cracking (SCC) but reduces its corrosion resistance. Extended surface characterization explains the contrasting influences on corrosion and SCC. Unexpectedly, the alloy suffers transgranular SCC (TGSCC), despite extensive grain boundary precipitation. Thorough
