Laser Additively Manufactured Iron-Based Biocomposite: Microstructure, Degradation, and In Vitro Cell Behavior

A too slow degradation of iron (Fe) limits its orthopedic application. In this study, calcium chloride (CaCl2) was incorporated into a Fe-based biocomposite fabricated by laser additive manufacturing, with an aim to accelerate the degradation. It was found that CaCl2 with strong water absorptivity i...
