ABSTRACT:
(1) In a fuel cell stack structure wherein a stack is formed by stacking cells each of which is formed by sandwiching an MEA between two separators, an adhesive layer33ais provided between the two separators sandwiching the MEA, without a constant thickness structure or pseudo constant thickness structure provided between the separators. (2) An adhesive layer33bis provided between adjacent cells, without a bead gasket provided therebetween. (3) The adhesive layers33a, 33bhave a Young's modulus of 100 MPa or less.
