PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an absorbent article which is excellent in the liquid absorbency, moisture permeability and gas permeability of an absorber and suppresses the user from having stuffiness or rash.SOLUTION: An absorber 4 has a first area 45 extending in a longitudinal direction X and a second area 46 which adjoins the first area 45 in a lateral direction Y and extends along the first area 45, the basis weight of an absorbent material such as a water-absorbing polymer is smaller in the second area 46 than in the first area 45. An opening 47 penetrating in the second area 46 in a thickness direction is formed in the second area 46. A fusion part 48 of core wrap sheets 41, 42 is formed at least in a part of the opening peripheral edge of the opening 47.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1COPYRIGHT: (C)2016,JPO&INPIT【課題】吸収体の液吸収性、透湿性、通気性に優れ、ムレやカブレが生じ難い吸収性物品を提供すること。【解決手段】吸収体4は、縦方向Xに延びる第一領域45と、該第一領域45と横方向Yにおいて隣接して該第一領域45に沿って延びる第二領域46とを有し、該第二領域46は、該第一領域45に比して吸水性ポリマー等の吸収性材料の坪量が小さい。第二領域46に、該第二領域46を厚み方向に貫通する開口部47が形成されている。開口部47の開口周縁部の少なくとも一部に、コアラップシート41,42同士の融着部48が形成されている。【選択図】図1
