Corrosion behaviors of Mg in HBSSs with different concentrations of NADH at 37nd fa(a) Structure of NADH under physiological conditions (pHncentrati(b) The amount of hydrogen gas evolved during the corrosion of Mg immersed in HBSSs with different concentrations of NADH (black: 0 mM, red: 1 mM, blue: 2.5 mM, and green: 5 mM). (c) Concentrations of Mg2+ ions released from Mg immersed in HBSSs for 4, 8, 24 and 48 h (black: pure Mg without NADH and red: pure Mg with 2.5 mM NADH). (d–f) OCPs (d), representative potentiodynamic polarization curves (e), corrosion potentials (Ecorr) and corrosion current densities (Icorr) (f) of Mg immersed in HBSSs with different concentrations of NADH. The results of a statistical analysis based on ANOVA one-way test are shown (*Indicates p < 0.05 for differences in values of samples and untreated control group).
