摘　　要：Effect of the addition of trace HA particles into Mg-2Zn-0.5Sr on microstructure, mechanical properties, and bio-corrosion behavior was investigated in comparison with pure Mg. Microstructures of the Mg-2Zn-0.5Sr-xHA composites （x= 0, 0.1 and 0.3 wt%） were characterized by optical microscopy （OM）, scanning electron microscopy （SEM） equipped with energy dispersion spectroscopy （EDS） and X-ray diffraction （XRD）. Results of tensile tests at room temperature show that yield strength （YS） of Mg- 2Zn-0.5Sr/HA composites increases significantly, but the ultimate tensile strength （UTS） and elongation decrease with the addition of HA particles from 0 up to 0.3 wt%. Bio-corrosion behavior was investigated by immersion tests and electrochemical tests. Electrochemical tests show that corrosion potential （Ecorr） of Mg-2Zn-0.5Sr/HA composites significantly shifts toward nobler direction from -1724 to -1660 mVscE and the corrosion current density decreases from 479.8 to 280.8 p.Acm^-2 with the addition of HA particles. Immersion tests show that average corrosion rate of Mg-2Zn-0.BSr/HA composites decreases from 11.7 to 9.1 mm/year with the addition of HA particles from 0 wt% up to 0.3 wt%. Both microstructure and mechanical properties can be attributed to grain refinement and mechanical bonding of HA particles with second phases and α-Mg matrix. Bio-corrosion behavior can be attributed to grain refinement and the formation of a stable and dense CaHPO4 protective film due to the adsorption of Ca^2＋ on HA particles. Our analysis shows that the Mg-2Zn-0.5Sr/0.3HA with good strength and corrosion resistance can be a good material candidate for biomedical applications.Effect of the addition of trace HA particles into Mg-2Zn-0.5Sr on microstructure, mechanical properties, and bio-corrosion behavior was investigated in comparison with pure Mg.
