Abstract Aluminum lattice structures have the advantages of lightweight, high specific strength/stiffness and excellent plasticity, while alumina ceramic lattice structures usually show high strength and significant brittleness. Therefore, alumina/aluminum interpenetrating composites can combine two distinct mechanical properties and show superior performance, which is beneficial to applications in aerospace and military industries. In this study, alumina ceramic lattice structures were prepared by additive manufacturing (AM) and used as infiltration skeleton. The molten aluminum was then infiltrated into alumina ceramic lattice structures. By this method, the alumina/aluminum ordered structure composites were prepared.
