PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a disposable diaper for enhancing the adhesion to an abdominal side skin thereby to prevent leakage from the abdominal side.SOLUTION: An absorbent body 10 is jointed, at least at a junction area 30 along a peripheral edge of an absorber 13, to an exterior sheet 20, and is formed with a non-junction area 31 on the inner side of the junction area 30. Elastic members 25 and so on, which are arranged on an abdominal side, are arranged to extend in the non-junction area 31, and an elastic member 25 arranged in a diaper longitudinal end side is more inactivated in elasticity in a narrow inactivation region 33 than the elastic member 25 arranged on the center side of a diaper longitudinal direction, at a center portion in a diaper width direction. At an abdominal end part of the diaper longitudinal direction, a portion close to an end portion in the diaper width direction of a gather nonwoven cloth 15 is fixed by a gather fixing part 37 on a side of an absorber 13, but a portion on the central side of the diaper width direction and lying over the non-junction area 31 is not fixed on the side of the absorber 13 by a gather non-fixing portion 38.COPYRIGHT: (C)2016,JPO&INPIT【課題】腹側の肌との密着性を高め、腹側からの漏れを防止する。【解決手段】吸収性本体10は、少なくとも吸収体13の周縁に沿った接合領域30にて外装シート20に接合されるとともに、接合領域30より内側に非接合領域31が形成される。腹側に配置された弾性伸縮部材25…は、非接合領域31に延在して配置されるとともに、おむつ幅方向の中央部において、おむつ長手方向中央側に配置された弾性伸縮部材25よりおむつ長手方向端部側に配置された弾性伸縮部材25の方が幅狭の非活性化領域33にて伸縮性を非活性化される。ギャザー不織布15は、おむつ長手方向の腹側の端部において、おむつ幅方向端部寄り部分がギャザー固定部37にて吸収体13側に固定されるとともに、これよりおむつ幅方向中央側であって、非接合領域31と重なる部分がギャザー非固定部38にて吸収体13側に固定されていない。【選択図】図5
