PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an absorbent article capable of immediately absorbing excreted fluid and dispersing the fluid and easily diffusing moisture and heat while maintaining flexibility of an absorber.SOLUTION: A sanitary napkin 1 as one embodiment of the invention includes: a fluid-permeable surface layer 2 on a skin-contact surface a leak-proof layer 4 on a skin-noncontact surface side and an absorption layer 3 between the surface layer 2 and the leak-proof layer 4. The absorption layer 3 includes: separation parts 6 each having a groove 61 on the skin-contact surface side and a low-absorption part 32 partitioned by the separation parts 6 and having a basis weight higher than that of the separation parts 6. In the low-absorption part 32, compressed concave parts 8 toward the skin-contact surface side are formed on the skin-noncontact surface side.COPYRIGHT: (C)2014,JPO&INPIT【課題】吸収体の柔軟性を維持しながら、排泄された液を素早く吸収し拡散させることができ、かつ、湿気及び熱を放散し易い吸収性物品を提供すること。【解決手段】本発明の一実施形態である生理用ナプキン1は、肌当接面に液透過性の表面層2、非肌当接面側に防漏層4、表面層2と防漏層4の間に吸収層3を有する。吸収層3は、肌当接面側に溝61を備える離間部6と、離間部6によって区画された離間部6よりも高坪量である小吸収部32とを有している。小吸収部32には、非肌当接側面に、肌当接面側へ向かう圧搾凹部8が形成されている。【選択図】図2
