Zinc (Zn), alongside Magnesium (Mg) and Iron (Fe), constitutes one of the three families of biodegradable metals. Zinc, as an abundant trace element, ranks sixth among all the essential metallic elements crucial for sustaining life within the human body. Zinc exhibits an intermediate biodegradation rate, falling between that of Fe (relatively slow) and Mg (relatively high) which positions it as a promising material for use in biodegradable implants.
