To provide an absorbent article capable of suppressing spreading of even a high viscous liquid on a skin contact surface of a surface sheet, and reducing adhesion of the high viscous liquid to the skin.SOLUTION: There is provided the absorbent article comprising: a liquid permeable surface sheet having a skin contact surface; and an absorber provided on a non-skin contact surface side of the surface sheet, the surface sheet comprises a nonwoven fabric formed of: a plurality of ridge parts which are arranged on the skin contact surface side in a protruded manner, and have a hollow area on the non-skin contact surface side; and bottom parts provided between the adjacent ridge parts. Each ridge part comprises a top part and a wall part for supporting the top part, and the wall part is configured so that, a number of fibers for unit area is smaller than that in the top part and the bottom part, and the top part has hydrophilic property on the surface on the skin contact surface side which is lower than that on the wall part.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1【課題】高粘性液体であっても、表面シートの肌当接面での広がりを抑制でき、肌への付着を低減することが可能な吸収性物品に関する。【解決手段】肌当接面を有する液透過性の表面シートと、前記表面シートの非肌当接面側に配置された吸収体とを備えた吸収性物品であって、前記表面シートは、前記肌当接面側に突出して配列され、前記非肌当接面側に中空領域を有する複数の畝部と、隣り合う畝部間に設けられた底部とを有する不織布からなり、前記複数の畝部のそれぞれは、頂部と、前記頂部を支持する壁部とを備え、前記壁部は、単位面積当たりの繊維の本数が前記頂部及び前記底部より少なく、前記頂部は、前記肌当接面側の表面の親水度が前記壁部に比し低い。【選択図】図1
