PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an absorbent article and the like in which an elastic member in a stretched state and an elastic member in a non-stretched state are alternately disposed and that can suppress visual incongruity and deterioration in a fitting feeling by retaining a position and a shape of the elastic member in the non-stretched state.SOLUTION: The absorbent article includes: a central elastic material 44 disposed at an outward direction of an absorber in a state stretched in the longitudinal direction and an elastic material cover sheet 43 that comes into contact with an outward face of the central elastic material. The elastic material cover sheet 43 covers a stretch area where the central elastic material stretches and a non-stretch area where the central elastic material does not stretch. An adhesive for fixing the central elastic material in a stretched state is applied to the central elastic material in the stretch area. The adhesive is applied to at least the non-stretch area on the outward face of the elastic material cover sheet 43, and the adhesive applied to the outward face is penetrated into an inward face of the elastic material cover sheet 43.COPYRIGHT: (C)2014,JPO&INPIT【課題】伸長状態の弾性部材と非伸長状態の弾性部材を交互に配置でき、かつ非伸長状態の弾性部材の位置や形状を保持して、見た目の違和感や装着感の悪化を抑制できる吸収性物品等を提供する。【解決手段】吸収性物品は、吸収体よりも外方向において前後方向に伸長した状態で配置される中央弾性材44と、中央弾性材の外方向側の面に当接する弾性材被覆シート43と、を備える。弾性材被覆シート43は、中央弾性材が伸長する伸長領域と、中央弾性材が伸長しない非伸長領域と、を覆う。伸長領域の中央弾性材には、伸長状態で固定されるための接着剤が塗布されている。弾性材被覆シート43の外方向側の面には、少なくとも非伸長領域において接着剤が塗布され、かつ弾性材被覆シート43の内方向側の面には、外方向側の面に塗布された接着剤が透過している。【選択図】図9
