Conventional metallic materials such as stainless steel, zinc-rich alloys, cobalt-based alloys, and titanium alloys often present limitations, including stress-shielding effects and the release of hypothetically harmful metal ions. On that account, Mg-based bioactive materials have garnered significant attention due to their critical functions in enzymatic reactions and degradational activity during tissue healing. Researchers have been actively developing and characterizing Mg-based biomaterials with tailored compositions to precisely regulate degradation kinetics, biodegradability, and tissue regeneration potential to revolutionize surgical procedures. However, the uncontrolled degradation of Mg can lead to premature loss of mechanical integrity, excessive release of metal ions, and excessive hydrogen gas evolution in peri-implant tissues, all of which can compromise biocompatibility and implant functionality. To address these limitations, innovative protective strategies such as surface coatings and alloying modifications have been discussed for their role in enhancing the durability and biocompatibility of Mg-based implants. This review further highlights the emerging field of magnesium nanoparticles, showcasing their biocompatibility and tunable release properties, making them promising candidates in targeted drug delivery, bioimaging, and wound healing applications. Furthermore, the anticancer potential of magnesium oxide (MgO) nanoparticles is investigated, with particular emphasis on their ability to inhibit cancer cell proliferation and induce apoptosis, thereby opening novel prospects in oncological research and therapy. In conclusion, this comprehensive analysis accentuates diverse applications and promising avenues of Mg in medicine and biomedical sciences. By exploring its role as a biomaterial, advancements in implant technology, protective layers, and nanoparticle-based systems, this contribution underscores the capacity of Mg to drive innovative medical solutions and interestingly contribute to improved patient outcomes and healthcare advancements.</p>","PeriodicalId":100919,"journal":{"name":"MetalMat","volume":"2 2","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-05-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1002/metm.70003","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144492800","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Studying negative thermal expansion (NTE) materials has been a hot issue in modern physics and material science because mechanisms of NTE cannot be understood by general thermal expansion theory, and NTE materials have the potential to fabricate zero thermal expansion materials by combination with positive thermal expansion (PTE) materials. NTE materials with a wide working temperature range are mainly ceramics or insulators. However, in 2022, uniaxial NTE along the <i>c</i>-axis in a wide temperature range was observed in CuAl₂-type tetragonal CoZr₂ superconductor. Since superconductors with a wide temperature range of NTE are quite rare, the discovery has attracted attention and plays an important role in leading further studies.

To address this issue, Bi₂Se₃-modified porous MXene (Bi₂Se₃-MXene-P) films with highly porous structure were selectively prepared using a template method, the prepared films exhibit large specific surface area, good conductivity, high volumetric capacity, and excellent flexibility. The introduction of Bi₂Se₃ acts as the spacers can not only effectively prevent the restacking of single-layer MXene but also enlarge the interlayer distance of MXene, leading to increased surface area and improved electrolyte electron transportation. More importantly, Bi₂Se₃ can provide more active sites to further improve the electrochemical performance in capacitor application. Benefiting from these properties, the Bi₂Se₃-MXene-P film electrode shows outstanding volumetric capacities of 1407.6 F cm⁻³ at 0.5 A g⁻¹ in 1M AlCl₃ electrolyte. To assess the electrochemical behavior for practical applications, the Bi₂Se₃-MXene-P//Al soft-pack devices were assembled. Volumetric capacities of the Bi₂Se₃-MXene-P//Al soft-pack devices decreased from 214.1 F cm⁻³ at 0.5 A g⁻¹ to 115.7 F cm⁻³ at 5 A g⁻¹. Additionally, when it switched back to 0.5 A g⁻¹, the volumetric capacity could recover to 210.1 F cm⁻³ demonstrating its excellent rate capability. Moreover, the Bi₂Se₃-MXene-P//Al soft-pack Al-ion device exhibits the capacitance retention of 77.4% after 5000 charge–discharge cycles.
