<;P>;PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an absorbent article which is fitted softly and well to the excretion section etc., which keeps the good fitting property even during wearing it, and which is excellent in the retracting property of a liquid. <;P>;SOLUTION: The absorbent article 1 includes a skin abutting surface 2, a non-skin abutting surface 3 and an absorber 4 interposed between both of the surfaces. The absorber 4 includes a layered part 40 where an upper absorption layer 41 and a lower absorption layer 42 are layered, and the upper absorption layer 41 is positioned on the side of the skin abutting surface. The layered part 40 of the absorber 4 is constituted in such a way that the apparent density of the lower absorption layer 42 is lower than that of the upper absorption layer 41 under loading of 0.5g/cm<;SP>;2<;/SP>;, and the apparent density of the lower absorption layer 42 is not lower than that of the upper absorption layer 41 under loading of 20g/cm<;SP>;2<;/SP>;. <;P>;COPYRIGHT: (C)2006,JPO&NCIPI본 발명의 흡수성 물품(1)은 피부당접면(2), 비(非)피부당접면(3) 및 이들 양면 사이에 개재된 흡수체(4)를 가진다. 흡수체(4)는 상부흡수층(41)과 하부흡수층(42)이 적층된 적층부분(40)을 가지고, 상부흡수층(41)이 피부당접면측에 위치하고 있다. 흡수체(4)의 적층부분(40)은 0.5g/cm2 하중하에서는 하부흡수층(42)의 겉보기 밀도(apparent density)가 상부흡수층(41)의 겉보기 밀도보다도 낮고, 20g/cm2 하중하에서는 하부흡수층(42)의 겉보기 밀도가 상부흡수층(41)의 겉보기 밀도와 동일하게 되거나 또는 상부흡수층(41)의 겉보기 밀도보다도 높게끔 이루어져 있다.
