1 - 14 . (canceled) 15 . A feedstock composition comprising: from 50 percent to 80 percent by volume curable liquid polymeric binder, and from 20 percent to 50 percent by volume metal particles having a relative apparent density in a range from 5 percent to 35 percent of a theoretical density of the particles, based on total volume of the feedstock composition. 16 . A feedstock composition comprising: solid pore-forming polymer particles, and from 20 percent to 50 percent by volume metal particles having a relative apparent density in a range from 5 percent to 35 percent of a theoretical density of the particles, based on total volume of the feedstock composition. 17 . A porous sintered metal body formed by an additive manufacturing method and comprising sintered metal particles and having a porosity in a range from 50 percent to 80 percent. 18 . The porous sintered metal body of claim 17 , wherein the metal particles are dendritic particles. 19 . The porous sintered metal body of claim 17 , wherein the metal particles are fibrous particles. 20 . The porous sintered metal body of claim 17 having a multi-layer structure that is visible using an optical microscope. 21 . The feedstock composition of claim 15 , wherein the metal particles have an apparent density below 2.0 grams per cubic centimeter. 22 . The feedstock composition of claim 15 , wherein the feedstock comprises at least 95 weight percent metal particles. 23 . The feedstock composition of claim 16 , wherein the metal particles have an apparent density below 2.0 grams per cubic centimeter. 24 . The feedstock composition of claim 16 , wherein the feedstock comprises at least 95 weight percent metal particles. 25 . The feedstock composition of claim 16 , wherein the solid pore-forming polymer particles have an average size less of less than 100 μm. 26 . The porous sintered metal body of claim 17 , wherein the porous sintered metal body is a three-dimensional non-tubular filter membrane. 27 . The porous sintered metal body of claim 17 , wherein the porous sintered metal body is an annular filter membrane having a shape comprising a three-dimensional tube. 28 . The porous sintered metal body of claim 28 , wherein the three-dimensional tube has a circular cross-section when viewed in a direction of an axis of the tube. 29 . The porous sintered metal body of claim 28 , wherein the three-dimensional tube has a non-circular cross-section when viewed in a direction of an axis of the tube.
