A gasket is provided on a porous sheet in one body. The gasket is thin and has an excellent sealability, and processability when the gasket is built in layer-built fuel cells. The gasket is made of liquid rubber and has a hardness not more than 60 (JIS A). Liquid perfluoro rubber and liquid silicone

A gasket is provided on a porous sheet in one body. The gasket is thin and has an excellent sealability, and processability when the gasket is built in layer-built fuel cells. The gasket is made of liquid rubber and has a hardness not more than 60 (JIS A). Liquid perfluoro rubber and liquid silicone rubber is preferably used for the gasket. And gasket can be made by injection molding.

1. A method for making a gasket on a sheet for a layer-built fuel cell, said method comprising the steps of; preparing at least two molds having a groove by which the gasket is formed, wherein the molds have a sealing means around a peripheral portion thereof, a passage through which air can flow

1. A method for making a gasket on a sheet for a layer-built fuel cell, said method comprising the steps of; preparing at least two molds having a groove by which the gasket is formed, wherein the molds have a sealing means around a peripheral portion thereof, a passage through which air can flow out of the molds and an inlet on one of the molds through which the liquid rubber can flow into the groove, placing a porous carbon sheet between the two molds and closing the molds so that the sealing means on one of the molds contacts a surface of the other of the molds, closing the inlet by a closing means installed in a tip of an injection nozzle so as to make a closed space closed by an o-ring and by the tip, sucking air out from the closed space until a degree of vacuum reaches a predetermined value, and injecting liquid rubber into the molds; the injection molding being carried out at an injection pressure within a range of about 2 to about 30 Mpa. 2. The method for making the gasket on the sheet according to claim 1, wherein the predetermined value is not more than 20 Torr. 3. The method for making the gasket on the sheet according to claim 1, wherein the predetermined value is not more than 10 Torr. 4. The method for making the gasket on the sheet according to claim 1, wherein the injection pressure is in the range of about 2 to 20 MPa.
