Abstract The study concerning the effects of inflammation on the corrosion behaviour of biodegradable Zn was carried out for the first time. Simulated inflammatory solutions containing H2O2 or Fenton’s reagent were prepared for electrochemical measurements and immersion tests. It turned out that H2O2 can significantly influence the mechanism underpinning Zn degradation, the degree of which varied with H2O2 concentration, and acted differently in PBS and Hank’s solution. Meanwhile, Fenton reactions also exerted a noticeable impact on Zn corrosion and the corrosion product formation. A proposal is thus put forward that degradation as biological consequences should be considered in evaluating biodegradable Zn.
