NOVELTY - The assembly (10) has cathode side gasket layer (6) and anode side gasket layer (7) are formed on surfaces of solid polymer electrolytic membrane (1), so that catalyst layers are adjoined and peripheral portion of electrolytic membrane is covered. Cathode side gas diffusion layer (4) and anode side gas diffusion layer (5) are formed on surfaces of outward of catalyst layers, so that catalyst layers are covered. Other cathode side gasket layer (8) and other anode side gasket layer (9) are formed, so that electrolytic membrane and gas diffusion layers are surrounded.    USE - Membrane electrode assembly for polymer electrolyte fuel cell for electric vehicle.    ADVANTAGE - The uneven shape and non-uniformity on adhesive or surface of adhesive agent which arise when only adhesive or adhesive agent is used can be eliminated, and the interval of catalyst layer and other gasket layer can be filled. The damage of electrolytic membrane can be prevented while membrane electrode assembly with high sealing performance can be realized. The thickness of gasket layer can be made as equal as the thickness of fibrous material, so that the thickness of gasket layer and thickness of catalyst layer can be equalized. The fall of sealing performance of the membrane electrode assembly can be prevented.    DETAILED DESCRIPTION - The cathode catalyst layer (2) and anode catalyst layer (3) are formed on both surfaces of solid polymer electrolytic membrane, so that peripheral portion of electrolytic membrane is exposed. The gasket layers are made of fibrous material impregnating adhesive or adhesive agent. An INDEPENDENT CLAIM is included for manufacturing method of membrane electrode assembly for polymer electrolyte fuel cell.
