was characterized as beach marks running from the circumference. SCC region mainly consisted of transgranular cracking and a few cleavage marks, which may be indicative of hydrogen-assisted cracking. Apart from transgranular cracking, a few localized pits were also visible. Stress corrosion crack propagated transgranularly until the critical stress intensity (i.e., fracture toughness) was attained. At this stage, the mechanical overloading takes over, and the central part of the fracture surface revealed ductile fail­ure characterized by dimple formation at a higher magnication (Figure 5.14(c)).

rate for predicting the service life of the component in the physiological environment. The implant devices generally have locations of stress concentrations such as the fastener holes, etc. that often show crack-like behaviour. The in-service inspection of the crack growth of such implants will be a nontrivial task. However, the aw­tolerant design assessment of the implant devices (that may have a pre-existing ne crack), by the CNT testing as demonstrated in the study by Choudhary and Singh
Raman (2012), will provide crucial information on whether the existing crack will
be tolerable for the given service time of the device (James & Sire, 2010).
5.5 Prevention of SCC
There are a few recommendations to avoid SCC in practices, which are discussed below.
1. Selection of SCC resistant alloy
The SCC resistant alloys can be produced by judicious selection of alloying addi­tions. For example, Mg alloys with higher concentration of Al are more susceptible to SCC, while the addition of Zr and rare earths as alloying elements have been reported to increase the SCC resistance (Baker & Avedesian, 1999).
2. Control of stress
SCC propagates when the stress intensities are above a critical level, which has been reported to be attained at 30e50% of the tensile yield strength of the material (Winzer et al., 2005). Hence, it is important to design Mg alloys having the threshold stress intensities reasonably lower than those presented by the service conditions. In this vein, a great importance should be given to the use of simple shapes that will provide fewer local high stress generating points (Winzer et al., 2005).
3. Surface modications and coatings
Coatings may be an appropriate measure for preventing the SCC to some extent. As discussed, localized corrosion such as pitting is a common cause for initiation of SCC in Mg alloys. Accordingly, the coating, which decreases the pitting suscepti­bility of Mg alloys in human body uid, could help in avoiding/retarding the SCC (Baker & Avedesian, 1999). Kannan and Lynnley (2011) recently studied the

mechanical integrity of the hydroxyapatite (HA)-coated Mg alloy while exposed to body uid and observed a signi cant improvement in mechanical integrity due to the coating. The enhanced mechanical integrity of the HA-coated specimen was attrib­uted to the decrease in susceptibility of the coated alloy to localized corrosion/pitting.
An effective modicati on of stresses or environment is not practical in biomedical applications because implants are expected to work under given stress conditions in the corrosive human body uid. So, the development of SCC-resistant Mg alloys appears to be one of the viable solutions. But the alloying elements must be nontoxic, which may limit the choices of alloying elements. Therefore, there is a value in exploring SCC mitigation with the use of biocompatible coatings on Mg alloys (Chen, Birbilis,
& Abbott, 2011; Ng, Wong, & Cheng, 2010; Yu, Pan, & Uan, 2010; Zho u, Shan, Han, & Ke, 2008).
5.6 Conclusions
This chapter emphasizes the need for characterization of SCC of biodegradable Mg alloys for temporary implant applications.
Mg alloys have been consistently shown to be susceptible to SCC in SBF (that contains considerable amount of chloride) and as a result may suffer premature cracking during service. The localized corrosion is the common cause of pit initiation. The role of pits is primarily to provide a lm-free and active surface through which atomic hydrogen can enter into the matrix and can subsequently cause embrittlement and cracking. The predominant mode for SCC crack propagation in Mg alloys was transgranular cracking. The slow strain rate testing experiments under different elec­trochemical conditions have suggested the SCC mechanism for a common Mg alloy in m-SBF to be the combined effect of HASCC and localized dissolution.
To prevent SCC initiation, the most promising recommendation is the use of appro­priate biocompatible coatings that retard the localized corrosion/pitting.
The chapter also describes the importance of determination of threshold stress intensity for stress corrosion cracking (i.e., K for quantitative characterization of SCC before their use as implants and provides some typical data that were generated using a simple and inexpensive testing approach.

6.1 Introduction
Magnesium corrosion rates and mechanisms depend heavily on the corrosion envi­ronment. The complexity of the in vivo environment precludes that the corrosion may be inuenced in many different ways. In vi tro corrosion tests, ideally, si mplify the complicated environm en t o f the body to m ak e measuring corros io n r ates and per­formance easier and cheaper to perform. To use an in vitro approximation that will accurately predict in vivo performance, it is necessary to understand the effect different components have on the corrosion mechanisms. Unfortunately, these ef­fects are often interdependent on other aspects of the system, making clear relation­ships difcult to obtain. Alloys, coatings, and choice of buffe r are just a few of the many system facets that can interact with other parts of the solut ion, affecting results in difcult-to-predict ways. Consequently, the nal corrosion mechanisms in a body environment are not necessarily the same as the sum of the individual components of an in vitro test. To that end, it is critical to understand the role and effects of in vivo uid components on a wide spectrum of test cases/conditions to effectively choose an in vitro test.
The organic components of the in vivo environment are characteristic of the complex interactions that can affect corrosion rates of Mg in unexpected ways. Although large molecules found in the body, such as amino acids and proteins, may not react directly with the electrochemical corrosion reactions of Mg, they have been shown to affect the ultimate corrosion rates in vitro (Virtanen, 2011). These molecules, too often neglected in more simple in vitro experiments, can affect the rates of adsorption to the surface of corroding Mg, affecting properties such as buffer capac­ity and interacting with the corrosion products. These secondary processes in turn affect the corrosion rates and performance of the material in vitro. Before any in vitro test may be accurately used to determine the correct degradation rate of Mg-based implants in vivo, it is necessary to understand and fully characterize these effects and understand how these molecules affect corrosion behavior.

206 Surface Modication of Magnesium and its Alloys for Biomedical Applications
The use of Mg and Mg alloys as biomedical implant materials is primarily limited by the corrosion rate requirements of the implant. The corrosive nature of the body means that, for many implant applications, corrosion rates of pure Mg and Mg compat­ible alloys are sufciently high that additional corrosion protection must be applied. Biocompatible coatings are one of the most promising solutions to this problem (Zeng, Dietzel, Witte, Hort, & Blawert, 2008). Calcium phosphate (CaP) coatings have been widely used to improve the biocompatibility of traditional permanent metal implants (Leon & Jansen, 2008). CaP coatings are insoluble enough in physiological systems to provide corrosion protection as well as biocompatibility. However, due to the complex nature of the in vivo environment, it is necessary to understand how the addition of these coatings will interact with more complex molecules in solution. Therefore, an investigation into the effects of such a coating on the corrosion layers, behavior, and ultimate corrosion rate in both amino acids and protein solutions are presented here.
6.2 The role of amino acids and proteins in biocorrosion
6.2.1 Amino acidsebridging the physiological gap
Amino acids (AA), molecules containing C, H, O, and N, are essentially the building blocks of proteins and perform countless functions in the bodys metabolism (Puleo &
Bizios, 2009). In a biocorrosion sense, this includes acting as a pH regulator, affecting
the buffering capacity of in vitro solutions, although not as effectively as carbonic buffering (Malda et al., 2008). Further, they may inuence corrosion behavior of Mg alloys by adsorbing onto the sample surface, following the Langmuir isotherm (Ashassi-Sorkhabi, Ghasemi, & Seifzadeh, 2005; Ashassi-Sorkhabi, Majidi, &
Seyyedi, 2004). They have also been found to form a complex with metal cations,
potentially encouraging the dissolution of metal (Bruneel & Helsen, 1988; William
& William, 2004). They may chelate (metal atom attached to large molecule) with
Mg and inhibit the formation of the insoluble Mg compounds that form the passive layer, decreasing the corrosion resistance (Yamamoto & Hiromoto, 2009). It has been suggested that other organi c compounds may have a simil ar effect to reduce the corrosion resistance of any insoluble salt layer on Mg (Yamamoto & Hiromoto,
2009).
Conversely, it has also been found that AA absorbed onto the surface of Mg alloys increased the resistance to polarization and reduced the corrosion current density (Gu, Zheng, & Chen, 2009). A similar increase in corrosion resistance has also been reported for steel and aluminum (Ashassi-Sorkhabi et al., 2004, 2005;
El-Shafei, Moussa, & El-Far, 1997). To date it appears the specic role of amino acids
on Mg biomaterials is unclear, and it certainly warrants further investigation.
The addition of the amino acids to measure corrosion is essential to bridge the gap between simple ionic solutions and more complicated protein solutions used in biocorrosion experiments. Perhaps the most commonly used solution used in the literature is Eagles Minimum Essential Medium (MEM), a formula containing ionic

compounds and amino acids in amounts similar to those found in the body, providing a suitable environment for cell cultures. However, the number of Mg-based experiments that have used an AA solution is still relatively small (Gu et al., 2009; Mueller, Lucia
Nascimento, & Lorenzo De Mele, 2010; Witte et al., 2007; Xu et al., 2009; Yamamoto & Hiromoto, 2009; Yang & Zhang, 2009; Yun et al., 2009; Zheng, Gu, Xi, & Chai,
2010). Others have used a variation of MEM, namely, Dulbeccos Modi ed Eagle
Medium (DMEM), a version of MEM with additional amino acids present (Carboneras, Garc~a-A-Alonso, & Escudero, 2011). Others have also tried McCoys medium (Yun et al., 2009), PRMI1640 (Xu et al., 2009), and a simulated blood plasma (Yang & Zhang, 2009).
The reason for the lack of widespread use of MEM in the bio-Mg literature may stem from its traditional function as a base media for protein of cell cultures rather than corrosion tests. However, MEM and similar solutions provide a link between a completely inorganic salt solution and one containing proteins and is a necessary solution in the understanding of both coated and uncoated Mg corrosion in vivo.
6.2.2 Proteinsean important biological addition
The importance of proteins in the body is well understood. For the sake of conciseness, their salient properties will not be discussed in great detail herei n, and instead the reader is directed toward some of the many excellent tomes on the subject (Horbett,
2004; Latour, 2008). In short, they are known to be a vital part to the success of
any implant in the body, and their connection to the surface is crucial because they pro­vide attachment sites on which cells bind (Miller, Fainerman, Leser, & Michel, 2004).
In a biocorrosion sense, proteins may directly inuence the corrosion properties of metals (Clark & Williams, 1982), as well as being important to their perceived biocom­patibility (Latour, 2008). Built of chains of amino acids, the structures of proteins typically have functional groups on the outside that can be polar, nonpolar, hydrophil­ic, or hydrophobic, thus creating a complex surface. For a given protein with a set isoelectric point, the overall charge depends on the pH of the environment (Latour,
2008). This charge and surface composition will affect the adsorption rates of the
proteins onto the surface. It is the adsorption of these proteins that can affect the corro­sion surface, and any interactions are crucial to the overall corrosion behavior.
Fetal bovine serum (FBS) is most commonly used to provide proteins for in vitro SBFs for corrosion tests (Eliezer & Witte, 2010; Keim, Brunner, Fabry, & Virtanen,
2011; Kirkland & Birbilis, 2013; Salunke, Shanov, & Witte, 2011). Taken from the
blood plasma of a calf fetus, it is often used for cell culture work due to the amount of growth factors it contains as well as the low number of antibodies (Willmer,
1965). FBS typically contains proteins amounting to 30e45 g/L (Equitech-Bio Inc.,
2010), with the majority of the protein composition made of bovine serum albumin
(BSA) (Lenter, 1981). BSA is effectively the bovine equivalent of human serum albumin (HAS), which accounts for about half of the blood serum protein in humans.
The biocorrosion properties of Mg and Mg alloys have been shown to be strongly affected by the addition and concentration of proteins in solution. Several studies have shown that proteins decreased the corrosion of various Mg alloys (Eliezer & Witte,
