Magnesium alloys are a promising new class of degradable biomaterials with a comparable stiffness to bone, reducing the adverse effects of stress shielding. The use of biologically degradable magnesium implants removes the need for a second repair or replacement operation. There is a increasing interest in capitalizing on the specific design capabilities of additive manufacturing to advance the medicine boundaries. Due to the high chemical reactivity which poses a risk of combustion, magnesium alloys are difficult to print 3D though. Alloying will slow down an order of magnitude or more, which may not yet be enough for many applications. In addition , the low vaporization temperature of magnesium and traditional biocompatible alloying elements further increases the difficulty of printing fully dense structures that meet the requirements of strength and corrosion. The purpose of this study is to survey current techniques for the construction of 3D printing magnesium and provide guidance on best additive practices for these alloys.
