    Abstract: The present invention addresses the problem of providing a gas diffusion electrode substrate which is excellent in suppressing reduction of power generation performance at high current density and can suppress fracturing or structural breakage during conveyance, and which can be stably produced. The present invention is: a porous carbon sheet including at least carbon fibers, the carbon sheet having a thickness of 30-95 µm, a gas permeation resistance of 0.5-8.8 Pa, and a tensile strength of 5-50 N/cm; and a gas diffusion electrode substrate having a microporous layer including at least an electroconductive filler on at least one surface of a porous carbon sheet including at least carbon fibers, the thickness of a large-pore part being 3-60 µm when the gas diffusion electrode substrate is divided into a small-pore part and a large-pore part in the thickness direction thereof.

    Abstract: One purpose of the present invention is to provide a carbon sheet suitable for use in gas diffusion electrode base materials such that, in a gas diffusion electrode base material, anti-flooding properties are superior because of large improvements in gas diffusibility and drainage properties, high electricity generating performance can be expressed even when operated at comparatively low temperatures and in a high current density region, and further, mechanical properties, conductivity, and heat conductivity are superior. One embodiment of this carbon sheet for achieving the purpose above is a porous carbon sheet containing carbon fiber and a binder, wherein the carbon sheet is characterized in that when measuring the depth distribution of the surfaces and letting surface layer area ratio X be the proportion of the surface area for parts with a depth of 20 µm or less in a measured surface area on one surface and surface layer area ratio Y be the proportion of the surface area for parts with a depth of 20 µm or less in a measured surface area on the other surface, the surface layer area ratio X is larger than the surface layer area ratio Y and that difference is 3 - 12%.
