| Summary: | Recently, porous ceramics have received much attention from researchers because of their excellent thermal and chemical stabilities compared to their counterparts (such as porous polymers and metals), despite their inferior mechanical instability. Among the various types of porous ceramics, reticulated porous ceramics have significant industrial potential because of their synergistic high porosity and permeability. However, to the best of our knowledge, there is insufficient data on the processing conditions or preparing optimal reticulated porous alumina. Therefore, we prepared and characterized reticulated porous alumina specimens by controlling various processing conditions, namely average particle size, solid loading, binder, and dispersant. The data obtained were used to assess whether the compressive strength of the reticulated porous alumina could be enhanced and to discuss the potential of these materials for various applications.
