The invention discloses an Mg-Y-Nd-(La+Ce)-Zr
biodegradable magnesium alloy and a manufacturing method thereof. The Mg-Y-Nd-(La+Ce)-Zr
biodegradable magnesium alloy is characterized in that the
magnesium alloy is manufactured from the following components in percentage by
mass: 3.0-4.5% of Y, 2.0-3.5% of Nd, 0.3-1.0% of Zr, 0.05-0.5% of
lanthanum cerium composite
rare earth, and the balance beingmagnesium and inevitable impurities, wherein the
impurity content is less than or equal to 0.1%, and
lanthanum content and
cerium content in the
lanthanum cerium composite
rare earth each account for50%; and the manufacturing method comprises the steps: batching,
casting, annealing, extruding, and obtaining finished products. According to the
magnesium alloy and the manufacturing method, a multi-element and small-amount design method is adopted, the proportion is scientific and reasonable, the manufacturing process is simple, the manufactured
magnesium alloy is high in compactness, reliable in quality, excellent in
mechanical property and
corrosion resistance, controllable in degradation speed and excellent in
biocompatibility, meanwhile, a
cardiovascular stent made of the magnesium alloycannot be damaged for deformation and can be well matched with human tissues, and therefore the
magnesium alloy has wide application prospects in the medical field.
