Abstract:
Magnesium and its alloys have attracted extensive attention as a prospective bioimplant. We have successfully employed chemical treatment in the presence of H2 O2 to modify the surface and the effect of treatment was investigated in simulated body fluid environment. The electrochemical techniques were used to assess the corrosion protection performance of the AZ91 Mg alloy in SBF solution, while FT-IR, SEM and EDX analyses were carried out to envisage the surface characteristics, and XRD and XPS techniques were performed to further substantiate the findings. The results revealed that the surface treated magnesium alloy could serve as a better bioimplant material.

THE VISION
THE MISSION
ABOUT I-STEM
It has always been the basic tenet of the Government of India, in generously funding R&D efforts at academic institutions over the years, that facilities established through such support be made available to those needing them and qualified to make use of them for their own research work

However, this was never easy or straightforward for, among other reasons, there was no ready source of information of what facility was available and where. Thanks to the Web, it is much easier today to have a national and regional “inventory of resources”, so as to match users with the resources they need, and to do all this in an efficient and transparent manner.

This can lead to a leap in R&D productivity and greatly enhance the effectiveness of public investment. This is the motivation behind I-STEM.
