{"product_id":"biodegradable-metals-eli-aghion-9783038973867","title":"Biodegradable Metals","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe interest in biocompatible and biodegradable metals, such as magnesium, is mainly related to their potential use as structural material for orthopedic and cardiovascular applications where a temporary medical device is required. However, in the case of magnesium, in vivo experiments have clearly shown that the corrosion degradation rate of magnesium and its alloys is too high and, hence, results in producing gas cavities that can promote the danger of gas embolism, tissue separation, and premature loss of mechanical integrity. The aim of this Special Issue on Biodegradable Metals is to explore and introduce innovative strategies to overcome the current limitations of magnesium.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Eli Aghion\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 3038973866\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9783038973867\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Mdpi AG\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/22\/2018\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 200\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.96lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.61h x 6.69w x 0.54d","brand":"Eli Aghion","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47200971882751,"sku":"9783038973867","price":63.9,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_6587b8fb-d605-41cf-a234-d65a14736cc8.jpg?v=1756788452","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/biodegradable-metals-eli-aghion-9783038973867","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
