ABSTRACT:
A method of manufacturing a microstructure includes filling a microchannel with a slurry including a sol-gel binder, removing a portion of the slurry from the microchannel such that a slurry layer is disposed on or between the plurality of microchannel walls, and heating the microstructure for a sufficient time and at a sufficient temperature to cure and bind the slurry layer to the microchannel walls.
