  • Patent number: 7553577
    Abstract: A fuel cell separator unit having a crosslinked rubber layer is fabricated by coating a rubber-containing coating agent on the periphery of the surface of a separator to form a thin, unvulcanized rubber layer, and then vulcanizing or crosslinking the thin rubber layer. A tightly sealed fuel cell is constituted by providing both sides of the main body of the fuel cell with separator units fabricated in the manner described above. When a fuel cell separator fabricated through a crosslinking by radioactive ray irradiation, the performance of the fuel cell is not hindered by the ingredient(s) of a rubber packing. The present invention provides a fuel cell sealing structure which ensures a perfect sealing. According to the present invention, a step of attaching a thin rubber packing is no longer necessary.
