Authors
Mg-Dy alloys show promising for being developed as biodegradable medical applications. It is found that the hydride DyH2 could be formed on their surface during their sample preparations. The formation of hydrides in Mg-Dy alloys is affected by the content of Dy and heat treatments. The amount of hydride DyH2 increases with the increment of Dy content. Their formation mechanism is attributed to the surface reaction of Mg-Dy alloys with water. The part of Dy in solid solution plays an important role in influencing the formation of hydrides.
