Abstract

A membrane electrode assembly includes: an electrolyte membrane; a cathode and an anode, each being stacked on the electrolyte membrane; and subgaskets bonded to a peripheral region of the electrolyte membrane, which is outside an active area, in which each of the cathode and the anode are stacked on the electrolyte membrane. The electrolyte membrane is disposed in at least a portion of the peripheral region of the electrolyte membrane, which is outside the active area, with a water discharge blocking region for preventing water in the electrolyte membrane from diffusing and being discharged to outside.
