Abstract

A metallic filter (1) includes a microstructured architecture (2) defined in a three-dimensional space having orthogonal axes, microstructured architecture (2) includes a metallic network (10) formed by a plurality of longitudinal connecting strands (12), namely extending along a longitudinal axis direction (X), and a network (20) of pores formed of a plurality of longitudinal interstices (22) located along connecting strands (12). Each longitudinal interstice corresponding to a subset of pores (24) of the network (20) of pores. The subset of pores (24) for which the pores are aligned along the longitudinal axis (X), the longitudinal interstices (22) thereby defining an axis of anisotropy of the microstructured architecture.
