Abstract

Electrode catalyst slurry and a tubular conductive layer with leading wire are adhered on the inner and outside surface of a tubular proton membrane to be heated and pressed, where the leading wire of the tubular conductive layer and a conductive coating are formed into a whole without electroplating while avoiding the characteristic change of the electrode catalyst; and where the leading wire is led along the surface of the membrane with the characteristics of avoiding jamming the spindle space and of no side floss.
