Abstract:
A method of producing a fuel cell separator includes pressing a compact part-forming material that includes a carbonaceous powder and a thermosetting resin binder at a temperature equal to or higher than the softening temperature of the thermosetting resin binder and less than the curing temperature of the thermosetting resin binder to obtain a compact part-forming preformed sheet, preparing a porous part-forming powder that includes a carbonaceous powder and a thermosetting resin binder, placing the compact part-forming preformed sheet and the porous part-forming powder in a forming die that has a concave-convex forming surface corresponding to the shape of a gas passage so that the concave-convex forming surface faces the porous part-forming powder, and hot-pressing the compact part-forming preformed sheet and the porous part-forming powder using the forming die at a temperature equal to or higher than the curing temperature of the thermosetting resin binder included in the compact part-forming material or the curing temperature of the thermosetting resin binder included in the porous part-forming powder, whichever is the higher.
