Engineering the tribological performance of WE43 magnesium alloy through reactive sputtered Nb2O5 coatings.

Magnesium alloys, such as WE43, have attracted considerable attention for temporary biomedical implant applications owing to their biodegradability, favourable mechanical properties, and inherent biocompatibility. Nevertheless, their practical implementation remains constrained by corrosion and mechanical wear accelera...
