“…A soft PZT powder Pb(Zr x Ti 1-x )O 3 with x = 0.44 − 0.52 and spray granules with an average grain size of d 50 = 1.8 µm (NCE51, Noliac Group, Kvistgaard, Denmark) was used to fabricate the cellular composite according to the design of Eichhorn et al [16,33] with 23 unit cells. The ceramic building blocks were produced using a PZT injection mold with a filler content of 48.3 vol-% [16,34,35] and cast into three different 3D silicone forms [35,36] generated by casting 3D-printed positive forms (Printing material "DL260", 3D printer "028 J", both DWS Systems, Zane, Italy) (Figure 1). Filling and cooling were carried out at 120 • C and with a cooling rate of 1 K min −1 in a tempering furnace ("Type K1252", Heraeus Holding GmbH, Hanau, Germany) to reduce thermal induced stress.…”
