Abstract
This research deals with understanding the influence of Strontium inclusion on mechanical, bio corrosion and biocompatibility of magnesium lithium alloy. Herein, magnesium-lithium-strontium alloy is fabricated using stir casting method with varying weight percentage of strontium (0 weight percentage, 0.25 weight percentage and 0.5 weight percentage). Bio-corrosion experiments were conducted using simulated body fluid and cell viability was assessed using primary rat calvarial cells. Microstructural analysis revealed grain refinement with increasing strontium content. Addition of strontium enhances the mechanical properties of magnesium lithium alloy and results showed that increasing strontium content up to 0.25 weight percentage resulted in improved tensile strength which is approximately 48 percentage higher than base magnesium lithium alloy. Bio-corrosion studies confirmed that strontium addition contributed to enhanced corrosion resistance. Cell viability analysis suggested acceptable biocompatibility, indicating the potential of the developed alloy for biomedical applications.
