Summary
Currently some biomaterials, especially Zn and Mg alloys and related manufacturing methods are among important research topics due to their suitable biocompatibility, mechanical and corrosion properties. Zn Mg alloy has been processed by Mechanical Alloying method. Hot sintering was conducted at 410°C under argon atmosphere. Resulting microstructures densities and hardness test behaviors of the Zn-based alloys were studied.Visual inspection using SEM (Scanning Electron Microscope) analyses indicates that the microstructure of the composite is also greatly effected by these parameters. In addition, EDS (Energy Dispersive X-Ray Spectroscopy analyses were performed for reliable determination of the chemical composition.
