<；P>；PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To improve the liquid permeability from an upper-layer absorbent body to a lower-layer absorbent body, while retaining the absorbing speed in the upper-layer absorbent body and improving the mutual balance in an absorbent article having the absorbent body formed by superposing the upper-layer absorbent body on the lower-layer absorbent body. <；P>；SOLUTION: The upper-layer absorbent body 4A includes at least pulp fibers and synthetic fibers. Also, the ratio of the pulp fibers to the synthetic fibers is specified to be 80-20:20-80 in the weight conversion. The upper-layer absorbent body 4A is superposed on the lower-layer absorbent body 4B without an adhesive, and an embossment is formed from the upper face and/or the circumferential outer part of the upper-layer absorbent body 4A toward the lower-layer absorbent body 4B. <；P>；COPYRIGHT: (C)2007,JPO&INPIT
