[0075] By means of a ruler provided on the surface of the first slide groove or the second slide groove, the flexible bag body is moved to the left or forward by a preset distance in the horizontal direction, and then moved to the right or backward by a preset distance in the horizontal direction, so as to form an accommodating space in a certain proportion to the outer dimensions of the matrix material to be impregnated between the first mold shell and the second mold shell;
[0076] Then, the sol solution is introduced into the flexible bag body in sequence, the bag is immersed, excess sol solvent is removed, an aging solution is introduced, the bag is aged, and excess aging solution is removed.
[0077] The beneficial effect of adopting the previous step is that the flexible bag body that has been evacuated is placed in a containing space that is in proportion to the outer shape of the matrix material, which further helps to ensure that the outer dimensions of the flexible bag body are in proportion to the outer shape of the matrix material when the sol solution is added to the flexible bag body, and further helps to avoid waste of the sol solution and the aging solution.
