The aim of this study was to analyze the crystallization of the MgZnCa metallic glass alloy. The crystallization process of metallic glass MgZnCa was investigated by means of the differential scanning calorimetry. The glass-forming ability and crystallization are both strongly dependent on the heating rate. The crystallization kinetics, during the isothermal annealing, were modelled by the Johnson-Mehl-Avrami equation. Avrami exponents were from 2.7 to 3.51, which indicates diffusion-controlled grain growth. Local exponents of the Johnson-Mehl-Avrami equation were also calculated. In addition, the Mg phase-being the isothermal crystallization product-was found, and the diagram of the time-temperature phase transformation was developed. This diagram enables the reading of the start and end times of the crystallization process, occurring in amorphous ribbons of the MgZnCa alloy on the isothermal annealing temperature. The research showed high stability of the amorphous structure of MgZnCa alloy at human body temperature.

Magnesium-based materials are an interesting solution in terms of medical applications. Alloys that are hard to obtain via standard means may be manufactured via mechanical alloying (MA), which allows the production of materials with complex a chemical composition and non-equilibrium structures. This work aimed to investigate materials obtained by the MA process for 5, 8, 13, and 20 h in terms of their phase composition and changes during heating.

Overly fast corrosion degradation of biodegradable magnesium alloys has been a major problem over the last several years. The development of protective coatings by using biocompatible, biodegradable, and non-toxic material such as chitosan ensures a reduction in the rate of corrosion of Mg alloys in simulated body fluids. In this study, chitosan/TiO nanocomposite coating was used for the first time to hinder the corrosion rate of Mg19Zn1Ca alloy in Hank's solution.

In the field of orthopedics, it's crucial to effectively slow down the degradation rate of Mg alloys. This study aims to improve the degradation behavior of Mg-Zn-Ca alloys by electrodepositing fluorohydroxyapatite (FHA). We investigated the microstructure and bond strength of the deposition, as well as degradation and cellular reactions.
