Abstract

Bioabsorbable magnesium (Mg) alloy was anodized in 1.0 M NaOH solution to improve the corrosion resistance. Then the anodized Mg alloy was immersed in an aqueous solution with three times of Ca2+ and HPO42- and lower Na+ and Cl- in comparison with those of conventional SBF. The whole surface of Mg alloy was successfully coated with plate-like apatite within 1 day. The thickness of apatite layer formed on Mg alloy was about 7 μm.
