1. A method for making an electrochemical cell electrode comprising the steps of:

  • applying a uniform layer of dry, powdered, carbon/hydrophobic polymer floc on the surface of a porous electrode substrate with virtually no floc within the pores of the substrate by positioning the substrate under a chamber having a bottom edge wherein the said bottom edge of the chamber fits against the edge of the substrate, dispersing the floc as a cloud of powder in the chamber over said surface of said positioned substrate and pulling the floc onto said surface by drawing a continuous vacuum under the substrate until the desired amount of powder has been deposited, wherein said substrate is graphitized carbon paper made from carbon fibers;

    compacting the applied floc layer; and

    ,sintering the compacted layer.
