The invention discloses a
corrosion-resistant and high-strength and
toughness Zn-Fe-Li-based
zinc alloy capable of being degraded in a
human body and an application of the
corrosion-resistant and high-strength and
toughness Zn-Fe-Li-based
zinc alloy, relates to field of medical implantation materials, and provides the
corrosion-resistant and high-strength and
toughness Zn-Fe-Li-based
zinc alloy which is low in cost of added materials, high in strength, good in
plasticity and controllable in degradation rate, has non-expanding and non-migrating degradation products and can be simultaneously degraded in the
human body against the defects in the prior art. The zinc alloy comprises Zn, Fe and Li elements, wherein the content of the
Zn element in
mass percentage is 80-99.997%, the content of the
Fe element in
mass percentage is 0.002-10%, and the content of the
Li element in
mass percentage is 0.001-10%. The cost of the materials added into the zinc-based alloy disclosed by the invention is low, the degradation products of various components in the prepared alloy material can be degraded in the
human body by
metabolism, the corrosion resistance is much higher than that of a
magnesium alloy, the degradation speed is greatly reduced, the mechanical support can be provided for a longer time, and the alloy material has good strength and toughness.
