PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide non-woven fabric which can absorb liquid quickly with a few amount of returned or remained liquid, is bulky and has good cushioning properties.SOLUTION: Non-woven fabric 10 has a joining area 3 to which a first layer 1 and a second layer 2 are laminated and joined partially, and a part of the second layer 2 between the joining areas 3 is convexity. The first layer 1 contains spiral crimped fiber crimping in a spiral and non-spiral crimped fiber not crimping in a spiral, and the fiber diameter of the non-spiral crimped fiber is bigger than the fiber diameter of the spiral crimped fiber.COPYRIGHT: (C)2015,JPO&INPIT【課題】液戻り量や液残り量が少なく、液体を素早く吸収できる嵩高でクッション性のよい不織布を提供すること。【解決手段】本発明の一実施形態である不織布10は、第1層1と第2層2が積層され部分的に接合された接合部3を有し、第2層2における前記接合部3間が凸状をなしている。第1層1が螺旋状に捲縮した螺旋状捲縮繊維及び螺旋状に捲縮していない非螺旋状捲縮繊維を含み、前記非螺旋状捲縮繊維の繊維径が前記螺旋状捲縮繊維の繊維径よりも大きい。【選択図】図1
