| Abstract Scope |
Magnesium alloys are among most exciting lightweight environment-friendly materials offering plenty of opportunities for tailoring structural and degradation properties. Extensive studies over the last two decades paved a rather clear way for controlling the former. However, significant gaps remain in controlling the latter due to the multi-dimensional nature of Mg degradation involving besides the material itself various gaseous and aqueous media dynamically changing over time. Most of the remaining gaps cannot be revealed by existing experimental methods due to principal limitations. We work on developing new in situ methods for understating Mg alloy degradation and interaction with hydrogen. Our laboratory-scale instrument combining isothermal calorimetry with pressure measurements allows quantitative analysis of the process thermodynamics. Complementary studies at large-scale facilities using quantitative neutron imaging allow further understanding of the kinetics of degradation products formation. Our latest achievements in studying model Mg alloys for biomedical applications will be discussed in this talk. |
