PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a non-woven fabric for an exterior sheet of an absorbent article, the non-woven fabric encapsulating humidity inside the exterior sheet as well as making humidity be discharged from a liquid impermeable sheet to make a wearer hardly sense stuffy feeling between the absorbent article and clothing.SOLUTION: A non-woven fabric 13 for an exterior sheet 6 of an absorbent article 1 comprising a liquid impermeable sheet 5 having humidity permeability has a thickness direction T and planar direction P and a first face 15 and second face 17. The non-woven fabric 13 includes: thermoplastic resin fibers 19； and cellulosic fibers 21, at least some of which constitute a plurality of fiber wads 23. The non-woven fabric 13 includes a plurality of void parts 27, each of which is adjacent to a first area 25 of each of the plurality of fiber wads 23, the first area facing the first face 15. Each of the plurality of fiber wads 23 is not connected to the thermoplastic resin fibers 29.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 4【課題】液不透過性シートから湿気を排出させるとともに、湿気を外装シート内に封じ込めることにより、着用者が、吸収性物品と、着衣との間に蒸れを感じにくい、吸収性物品の外装シート用の不織布を提供すること。【解決手段】透湿性を有する液不透過性シート５を備える吸収性物品１の外装シート６用の不織布１３であって、不織布１３が、厚さ方向Ｔ及び平面方向Ｐ、並びに第１面１５及び第２面１７を有し、不織布１３が、熱可塑性樹脂繊維１９と、セルロース系繊維２１であって、その少なくとも一部が、複数の繊維塊２３を構成しているセルロース系繊維２１とを含み、不織布１３が、複数の繊維塊２３のそれぞれの、第１面１５と向かい合う第１領域２５に隣接する、複数の空隙部２７を備え、複数の繊維塊２３のそれぞれが、熱可塑性樹脂繊維２９と接合されていない不織布１３。【選択図】図４
