Advanced porous ceramics also called ceramic foams are being utilized in a broad range of applications in order to mitigate several environmental biological and transportation related issues facing society ceramic materials offer many distinct advantages over other materials such as polymers or metals.
The aim of this chapter is to review the mechanical properties of macro porous ceramics.
These properties have many uses comprehending macroscaled devices mesoscaled materials and microscaled pieces.
They withstand chemical erosion that occurs in other materials subjected to acidic or caustic environments.
A ceramic material is an inorganic non metallic often crystalline oxide nitride or carbide material.
The following issues are of particular interest to this paper.
