A porous particle with a non-polymeric masking powder on at least a portion of its outer surface is disclosed. The non-polymeric masking powder is not attached to the outer surface of the porous particle with a polymeric binder, and the masked porous particle is hydrophobic. Absorbent articles, for example, diapers and sanitary napkins, and absorbent components of absorbent articles that include a plurality of the masked porous particles are also disclosed. A method of making the masked porous particle is also disclosed.本發明揭示一種在外表面之至少一部分上具有非聚合遮蓋粉末之多孔性顆粒。該非聚合遮蓋粉末未藉由聚合物黏合劑附著至該多孔性顆粒之該外表面,且該被遮蓋多孔性顆粒為疏水性的。亦揭示例如尿布及衛生棉之吸收性物品以及吸收性物品之包括複數個被遮蓋多孔性顆粒之吸收性組件。亦揭示一種製造該被遮蓋多孔性顆粒之方法。200‧‧‧多孔性顆粒201‧‧‧黏土205‧‧‧夾層黏土220‧‧‧被遮蓋多孔性顆粒
