Interpenetrating phase composites (IPCs) with 3D printed alumina microlattices infiltrated with epoxy have been fabricated. Mechanical analysis shows that the IPCs under quasi-static compression generally exhibit fracture behaviour similar to that of their ceramic-lattice constituent but in a gradua...
