Two kinds of Mg-Zn-Mn-Ca alloys with and without cerium were designed and fabricated. In-vitro degradation tests and electrochemical evaluations were carried out to compare their biocorrosion behavior in Hank's solution at 37 °C. After adding cerium, the continuous network distributed Ca2Mg6Zn3 phases in Mg-2Zn-0.5Mn-1Ca alloy (Alloy I) were separated due to the emerging non-continuously distributed Mg2Ca phase and Mg12CeZn phase. This change led to corrosion acceleration of Mg matrix at the initial stage but also sped up the formation of compact corrosion products for Mg-2Zn-0.5Mn-1Ca-1.5Ce alloy (Alloy II), and therefore enhanced its biocorrosion resistance. Cerium containing Alloy II has the potential to be used as future biomaterials.
