| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
To develop a biodegradable magnesium alloy exhibiting high strength with toughness and/or ductility, the generalized stacking fault energy and grain boundary cohesive energy were estimated by the first-principles calculations. On one hand, evaluated impact toughness suggested that addition of Ca along with Zn or Al reduced plastic anisotropy and strengthened the grain boundaries, leading to higher in impact toughness of Mg alloys. Biocompatibility of the alloy was confirmed by investigating its degradation behavior and the response of extraperitoneal tissue around the ternary alloy. The Mg-Zn-Ca alloy clip successfully occluded the renal vein, and nail penetrated the skull. Little gas generation was observed following implantation of the developed Mg-Zn-Ca clip or nail by in vivo micro-CT. Histological analysis, minimal observed inflammation, and an only small decrease in the volume of the implanted Mg-Zn-Ca clip confirmed its excellent biocompatibility.
