Longitudinal weld seams are an intrinsic feature in hollow extrusions produced with porthole dies. As these joins occur along the entire extruded length, it is desirable that these weld seams have a minimal impact on the structural integrity of the extrudate. In particular, defects associated with weld seam formation should be avoided. In this...

Biomedical applications are an emerging field of interest for magnesium technology, envisioning biodegradable implants that resorb in the human body after having cured a particular medical condition (such as artery clogging or bone fractures). This challenges research in a sense that the materials to be used need to dissolve in vivo in a...

Longitudinal weld seams are an intrinsic feature in hollow extrusions produced with porthole dies. The formation of longitudinal weld seams is a solid bonding process, controlled by the local conditions in the extrusion die. Being the weakest areas within the extrusion cross section, it is desirable to achieve adequate properties of these weld...

In hollow aluminium extrusions produced with porthole dies, longitudinal weld-seams are present throughout the entire extruded length, due to rejoining of metal streams inside the extrusion tooling. These weld-seams, formed by a solid-state bonding process at elevated temperatures and under conditions of interfacial pressure and plastic...

In hollow aluminium extrusions, longitudinal weld-seams are formed through a solid-state bonding process at elevated temperatures and under conditions of interfacial pressure and plastic deformation. For structurally loaded components, sound weld seams are imperative. In our research, a weld seam integrity indicator as a means of quantifying...

The corrosion resistances for magnesium alloys AZ80, AE82 and ZM21 treated at 200 and 330°C for 2 hours, and for AZ80 and AE82 at 415°C for 8 hours were investigated using potentiodynamic polarization measurements in simulated body fluid (SBF) solution at 37°C. The morphology and the Volta potential of intermetallic precipitates in AE82 were...

Magnesium and its alloys are light weight, biodegradable materials. They can be used as metal implants which maintain strength and integrity for the time of recovery, followed by natural dissolution in the body preventing the necessity of implant removal. In addition to the general biocompatibility and biodegradability requirements, these...

Being biocompatible and biodegradable, magnesium alloys are considered as the new generation biomedical implant materials, such as for stents, bone fixtures, plates and screws. A major drawback is the poor chemical stability of metallic magnesium; it corrodes at a pace that is too high for most prospective implant applications. Requirements for...
