POROUS CARBON SHEET AND PROCESS FOR PRODUCTION THEREOF

摘要

A porous carbon sheet obtained by binding separate carbon short fibers with a carbonization product of a resin, wherein the pore mode diameter of the sheet is 45 to 90 µm and the mean fiber diameter of the carbon short fibers is 5 to 20 µm. The sheet can be produced by thermoforming a precursor fiber sheet comprising carbon short fibers of 15 to 30 g/m 2 in basis weight and a thermosetting resin of 30 to 80 g/m 2 in basis weight by hot plates having a certain clearance and carbonizing the thermosetting resin contained in thermoformed precursor fiber sheet.
