PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an absorber which exhibits absorption properties most suitable for wide-ranging use of an absorption product, and can freely configure each of functions such as fluid diffusion and fluid absorption.SOLUTION: A composite absorber includes: an absorbing layer primarily consisting of a super absorbent polymer held and exposed on the surface of a nonwoven fabric substrate and a fiber net-like hot melt adhesive for covering the surface of the absorbing layer. The composite absorber is integrally combined with another composite absorber having the same structure or different structure, or a sheet material by means of a hot melt adhesive so as to form a multifunctional multi-layered absorber wherein the functions of layers are different from each other.COPYRIGHT: (C)2014,JPO&INPIT【課題】吸収製品の多岐に渡る用途に最適な吸収特性を有するとともに、液の拡散および吸収の各機能を自由に設定できるような吸収体を提供する。【解決手段】 不織布状基材の表面に露出した状態で担持された高吸水性樹脂を主体とする吸収層、およびこの吸収層の表面を被覆する繊維ネット状ホットメルト接着剤からなる複合吸収体に、同一構造の、あるいは異なる構造の複合吸収体あるいはシート材料を、ホットメルト接着剤により相互に一体化して構成した、各層が異なる機能を有する多機能複層吸収体。【選択図】図3
