## Description

- description: The increasing interest in Mg-Zn binary alloys as temporary implant
    materials is attributed to their outstanding biocompatibility, biodegradability,
    and favourable mechanical properties. However, their application is constrained
    by high degradation rates in the physiological environment, resulting in the release
    of hydrogen gas and a rapid decline in mechanical properties. Additionally, the
    material's biocompatibility is contingent upon its degradability. Researchers
    have demonstrated that addressing these issues is possible through strategies
    such as controlling Zn content, employing thermo-mechanical processing to achieve
    suitable microstructures, and applying surface coatings. This manuscript provides
    a comprehensive review of published literature on Mg-Zn alloys, exploring the
    challenges and outlining future research directions in this field.
