“…Porous silicon nitride [ 21 ] excels by a unique combination of various mechanical, thermal, chemical, and electric properties such as its light weight, high strain and damage tolerance, high hardness and wear resistance, low thermal expansion coefficient, high-temperature resistance, good thermal shock resistance, oxidation and corrosion resistance, good biocompatibility, and favorable dielectric properties. Its fabrication routes include pressureless sintering [ 27 ], freeze drying [ 28 ], gel casting [ 29 , 30 ], the addition of sacrificial pore formers [ 31 ], the use of replica templates [ 32 ], three-dimensional printing [ 33 ], slip [ 34 ] and tape casting [ 35 ], microwave sintering [ 36 ], and other techniques.…”
