Magnesium Alloy Controllable Hydro Reactive

Tung-Lin Tsai Controllable Hydro Reactive Medical Product

Magnesium Alloy

Magnesium is a controllable hydro-reactive magnesium alloy developed for medical use. The alloy is composed of magnesium, zinc and calcium, elements that the human body can absorb. Adjusting the mixing entropy of the alloy allows the degradation rate to be controlled precisely, while corrosion resistance and mechanical properties are improved. The material degrades slowly and evenly until it is absorbed and carried away by body fluids. The alloy is used in a single-use hemostatic clip that needs no second surgery for removal. No additional surface treatment is required.

Magnesium Alloy Controllable Hydro Reactive by Tung-Lin Tsai was selected as an outstanding illustration of industrial design by the A' Design Award. Magnesium Alloy Controllable Hydro Reactive earned the Bronze A' Design Award in Medical Devices and Medical Equipment Design in 2021. The A' Medical Devices and Medical Equipment Design Award is a highly prestigious, international, juried design award which rewards superior design of stethoscopes, wheelchairs, defibrillators, MRI machines, surgical instruments, prosthetics, ultrasound devices, pacemakers and more.
