Abstract:
1. A method for manufacturing a fuel cell separator by forming a resinous coat and a metallic coat on a surface of a separator base material having a power generation region facing a membrane-electrode assembly and a peripheral region including openings which function as manifolds, comprising: a resinous coat forming step of forming a resinous coat on the surface of the peripheral region of the separator base material, and a metallic coat forming step of simultaneously forming a metallic coat on a surface of the power generation region of the separator base material and a surface of the separator base material exposed at a bottom of extremely small holes contained in the resinous coat, wherein: the metallic coat forming step is an electroplating treatment to perform electro-deposition of metal on the surfaces of the separator base material.
