However, when implementing the above method, clogging of the structure or lack of strength properties often occurs depending on the adhesion conditions of the ceramic slurry. It is possible to form homogeneous microscopic vents without any pores, to be able to impart high skeletal strength, to reduce the number of steps and to be able to commercialize the product at low cost.

Among these, as a means to suppress clogging, 1.
A method has been proposed in which the amount of ceramic slurry deposited is reduced in each operation and the process from deposition to drying is repeated (Japanese Patent Application Laid-open No. 59-3059). In order to obtain skeletal strength, it is necessary to repeat the operation at least four times, which poses the problem of prolonging the process.

If the amount of adhesion is increased by repeated filling, it will cause pore clogging, and in this method, the pores are not filled with ceramic components after the organic components have decomposed and disappeared, so there is a problem that the tissue strength cannot be increased.
