PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an absorber which can suppress breaking and deformation due to shear stress.SOLUTION: An absorber 3 includes a first absorbent layer 11, an intermediate layer 13, and a second absorbent layer 12. The first absorbent layer includes a first base material 21, a first water-absorbing material 23 including a high water-absorbing polymer, and a first adhesive agent 22/24 for fixing the first water-absorbing material. The second absorbent layer includes a second base material 26, a second water-absorbing material 28 including a high water-absorbing polymer, and a second adhesive agent 27/29 for fixing the second water-absorbing material. The absorber has a bonding region 7 in which the first base material and the intermediate layer are bonded by the first adhesive agent, and the second base material and the intermediate layer are bonded by the second adhesive agent in a thickness direction in a plane view. In the bonding region, the first adhesive agent and the second adhesive agent are brought into contact with each other, and the first base material and the second base material are bonded with each other.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 3COPYRIGHT: (C)2020,JPO&INPIT【課題】せん断応力による破断や型崩れを抑制可能な吸収体を提供する。【解決手段】吸収体3は、第1吸収層11と、中間層13と、第2吸収層12と備える。第1吸収層は、第1基材21と、高吸水性ポリマーを含む第1吸水材23と、第1吸水材を固定する第1接着剤22/24とを含む。第2吸収層は、第2基材26と、高吸水性ポリマーを含む第2吸水材28と、第2吸水材を固定する第2接着剤27/29とを含む。吸収体は、平面視で、第1基材と中間層とが第1接着剤で、及び、第2基材と中間層とが第2接着剤で、それぞれ厚さ方向に互いに接合された接合領域7を有する。接合領域において、第1接着剤と第2接着剤とが互いに接触して、第1基材と第2基材とが互いに接合される。【選択図】図3
