Conductive member, a method for manufacturing the same and a method for manufacturing a separator for use in a fuel cell

A method for manufacturing a separator for use in a fuel cell comprising:

• a first conductive sheet molding step for molding a first conductive sheet by forming a conductive material to have a sheet-shaped structure;
• a second conductive sheet molding step for molding a second conductive sheet by forming a conductive material to have a sheet-shaped structure;
• a resin sheet molding step for molding a resin sheet containing a thermoplastic resin, wherein at least one of the first conductive sheet and the second conductive sheet contains a compressive conductive material of which volume is reduced by being applied with pressure,
• an adhering step for adhering the resin sheet, which is sandwiched by the first and second conductive sheets, to the first and second conductive sheets with a heat-press method and
• a groove defining step for defining a fluid passage groove on a surface of the one of the first and second conductive sheets, which is opposed to an adhered surface of the one, by pushing a mold possessing a reverse pattern of the groove.
