Abstract
A method for manufacturing a carbon sheet, particularly for an electrode of a fuel cell, includes the steps of forming a sheet by mixing carbon fibers and a bonding agent; drying the formed sheet; immersing the dried formed sheet in a water repellent material particle dispersed dilute solution; removing the formed sheet from the water repel material particle dispersed dilute solution; baking the formed sheet for fixing water repel material particles thereon contained in the water repel material particle dispersed dilute solution; and oxidizing the bonding agent for removing the same from the formed sheet during the baking.
