PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an absorbent article in which, even when compression force in a width direction is applied from a thigh part of a wearer, a thick area of an absorbent core is hardly bent in a direction separating from a skin of a wearer, and which can achieve excellent leakage prevention property in sleeping.SOLUTION: An absorbent article 1 of the present invention comprises a surface sheet 2, a rear surface sheet 3, and an absorbent core 4, in which the absorbent core 4 has a center thick area 41 which is thicker than parts in the surrounding of the center thick area, and which forms a ridge part 12 on a skin contact surface side of the article. An outside low basis weight groove part 51 is provided on an adjacent portion of the center thick area 41 or on the center thick area 41, and inside low basis weight groove parts 52, 53 are provided on a width direction center side of the outside low basis weight groove parts 51. The outside low basis weight groove part 51, the inside low basis weight groove parts 52, 53 are formed on each of both sides of a longitudinal direction center line CL and there are a front part in which, an interval between corresponding grooves decreases gradually toward a front direction, and a rear part in which the interval between the corresponding grooves decreases gradually toward a rear direction. On a maximum width part D of the center thick area 41, a width of the outside low basis weight groove parts 51 is wider than widths between the inside low basis weight groove parts 52 and between the inside low basis weight groove parts 53.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 2COPYRIGHT: (C)2017,JPO&INPIT【課題】着用者の大腿部から幅方向の圧縮力が加わっても、吸収性コアの厚肉領域が、着用者の肌から離れる方向に屈曲しにくく、就寝時にも優れた漏れ防止性が得られる吸収性物品を提供すること。【解決手段】本発明の吸収性物品1は、表面シート2、裏面シート3及び吸収性コア4を備え、吸収性コア4は、周囲に位置する部分より厚みが厚く、物品の肌当接面側に隆起部12を形成する中央厚肉領域41を有し、中央厚肉領域41の隣接部位又は該央厚肉領域41に外側低坪量溝部51、外側低坪量溝部51より幅方向中央側に内側低坪量溝部52,53を有し、外側低坪量溝部51及び内側低坪量溝部52,53は、長手方向中央CL線の両側に形成され、前方に向かって対応する溝部間の間隔が漸減する前部、及び後方に向かって同間隔が漸減する
