ABSTRACT:
Porous carbon sheets suitable for use as fuel cell electrode support plates are produced by stabilizing acrylic filament precursors through the controlled addition of oxygen thereto. The stabilized filaments are thereafter chopped into short lengths, felted and pressed into sheets with the pressing step being performed at a temperature determined by the oxygen content of the stabilized filaments. The sheets are thereafter pyrolyzed to produce the desired porous substrate material.
