PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a nonwoven fabric which is hardly twisted and has high cushioning properties when used as a surface sheet of an absorbent article.SOLUTION: A nonwoven fabric 10a includes: first protrusion parts 11 each protruding to a first surface side Z1 of a sheet body in a plan view of the nonwoven fabric and having an internal space and second protrusion parts 12 each protruding to a second surface side Z2 opposite to the first surface side Z1 and having an internal space. In the nonwoven fabric 10a, the multiple first protrusion parts 11 and the multiple second protrusion parts 12 are alternately and consecutively arranged via wall parts 13 and 14 in each of different directions intersecting each other in the plan view of the nonwoven fabric 10. The first protrusion parts 11 are integrated with the second protrusion parts 12 in the wall parts 13 (14). The wall parts 13 (14) connecting the first protrusion parts 11 with the second protrusion parts 12 include crimped parts 16 where the wall parts are compressed.COPYRIGHT: (C)2015,JPO&INPIT【課題】本発明は、不吸収性物品の表面シートに用いた場合に、ヨレ難く、高いクッション性を有する不織布を提供する。【解決手段】シート体の不織布を平面視した第1面側Z1に突出し内部空間を有する第1突出部11と、前記第1面側Z1とは反対側の第2面側Z2に突出し内部空間を有する第2突出部12とを有し、前記第1突出部11および前記第2突出部12とは該不織布10の平面視交差する異なる方向のそれぞれに壁部13、14を介して交互に連続して複数配された不織布10aであり、前記第1突出部11と前記第2突出部12とが前記壁部13(14)で一体化され、前記第1突出部11と前記第2突出部12とを繋ぐ壁部13(14)は、該壁部が圧せられた圧着部16を有する不織布10aを提供する。【選択図】図3
