PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a non-woven fabric which can absorb and infiltrate liquid efficiently because liquid is hard to flow on the non-woven fabric when the liquid is poured on the non-woven fabric.SOLUTION: A non-woven fabric 1 comprises a basement 10 expanding in a shape of an about plane and plural convex parts 12 projecting from the basement. Each convex part comprises a peripheral surface part 12S standing up from the basement to a thickness direction Th of the non-woven fabric and shaping a peripheral surface 12SP in the basement side as a proximate end 12EB, and a top part 12T formed in a tip side 12ET of the peripheral surface part located in the other side with respect to the proximate end of the peripheral surface part. The peripheral surface part comprises projecting part 12P projecting into an outside DO of the peripheral surface from the peripheral surface, in at least one part of the peripheral surface.COPYRIGHT: (C)2016,JPO&INPIT【課題】不織布上に液体が注液されたときに、不織布上で液体が流れにくく、それにより液体を効率的に吸収かつ浸透させることができる。【解決手段】略平面状に拡がる基部10と、基部から突出する複数の凸部12とを備えた不織布1に関する。それぞれの凸部が、基部側を基端12EBとして基部から不織布の厚さ方向Thに起立して周面12SPを形成する周面部12Sと、周面部の基端とは反対側に位置する周面部の先端側12ETに形成される頂部12Tとを備えている。周面部は、周面の少なくとも一部に、周面から周面の外方側DOに突出する突出部12Pを備えている。【選択図】図2
