Magnesium (Mg) alloys have several advantages, such as low density, high specific strength
and biocompatibility. However, they also suffer weak points, such as high corrosion, low …

This article presents our take on the area of bulk ultrafine-grained materials produced by
severe plastic deformation (SPD). Over the last decades, research activities in this area have …

Grain refinement can strengthen the mechanical properties of materials according to the
classical Hall-Petch relationship but does not always result in better corrosion resistance …

The passive film properties of as-received selective laser-melted 316L stainless steel
(SLMed 316L SS) without obvious pores were studied and compared with those of wrought …

Grain refinement is known to lead to improvements in strength and wear resistance. Inherent
processing involved in grain refinement alter both the bulk and the surface of a material …

A definitive understanding of how grain size affects the corrosion rate and passivity of
different metallic alloys has not been developed to date. A review of the pertinent literature …

A range of grain size from 70μm to 0.7 μm was studied for corrosion resistance of Mg–Y–RE
magnesium alloy using electrochemical and constant immersion testing in 3.5 wt.% NaCl …

Up to the date of writing this article, a quantitative analysis between corrosion rate and
combined microstructural parameters including composition, grain size, and precipitations …

Friction stir processing (FSP) was employed as a post-surface processing technique to
modify the tribological and corrosion behavior of cold-sprayed (CS) 316L SS deposits …

Although numerous reports have elucidated the neurotoxic impacts of Ti-6Al-4V (Ti64) due
to the presence of vanadium, it is the most widely used biomedical Ti material. This is …
