摘要: Abstract Nano-hydroxyapatite (nHA) reinforced magnesium composite (Mg–nHA) was fabricated by friction stir processing (FSP). The effect of smaller grain size and the presence nHA particles on controlling degradation were investigated. Grain refinement from 1500 μm to ≈ 3.5 μm observed after FSP. In vitro bioactivity studies immersing samples in supersaturated simulated body fluid (SBF 5 ×) indicate that increased hydrophilicity pronounced biomineralization are due respectively. Electrochemical test assess corrosion behavior also clearly showed improved resistance enhanced biomineralization. Using MTT colorimetric assay, cytotoxicity study with rat skeletal muscle (L6) cells marginal increase cell viability FSP-Mg–nHA sample. good adhesion.
