Description

Biodegradable implants received increased attention due to their use in various fields of medicine. Iron based materials coated with polyethylene glycol (PEG) were prepared as a potential biodegradable bone implants. Degradation behaviour was studied by anodic polarisation method and immersion test. The degradation rate of open cell materials with polyethylene glycol coating layer was faster compared to uncoated Fe sample. Also the mass losses were higher for samples with PEG coating. The polymer coating brought about the desired increase in degradation rate of porous iron material. (authors)
