The thermal and mechanical properties of a functionally graded lanthanum hexaaluminate‐alumina ceramic are described. The gradation of functionality is based on different volume fraction of lanthanum hexaaluminate, varying from 0 to 80 vol% and corresponding porosity from 2 to 32 vol%. The highest volume fraction of lanthanum hexaaluminate enables a five time reduced thermal diffusivity as compared to alumina. The fracture toughness and elastic modulus is highest for a 20 vol% lanthanum hexaaluminate‐alumina composite.
