Absorbent article

摘要

Provided is an absorbent article capable of suppressing leakage in the widthwise direction from an absorbent article (1) of a bodily fluid (31) which has seeped from an absorbent body (4) as a result of the application of pressure to the absorbent article (1). The present invention is an absorbent article (1) having a lengthwise direction (Y-direction) and a widthwise direction (X-direction), and provided with a liquid-permeable top sheet (2) provided on the skin-side, a liquid-impermeable backsheet (3) provided on the garment-side, and a liquid-holding absorbent body (4) provided between the top sheet (2) and the backsheet (3) and including edges extending in the lengthwise direction on both sides in the widthwise direction, wherein: at least areas outside both edges of the absorbent body (4) in the widthwise direction thereof include a plurality of first channels (21) and a plurality of second channels (22) for channeling bodily fluid (31) which has seeped from the absorbent article (4); the plurality of first channels (21) extend in the lengthwise direction and are arranged in the widthwise direction; and the plurality of second channels (22) connect adjacent first channels (21).

主权项

1. An absorbent article having a lengthwise direction, a widthwise direction, a skin contact side and a non-skin contact clothing side, the absorbent article comprising a liquid-permeable top sheet provided on the skin side, a liquid-impermeable back sheet provided on the clothing side and a liquid-retaining absorbent body including edges extending in the lengthwise direction and opposed in the widthwise direction and provided between the top sheet and the back sheet,
wherein the absorbent article includes, at least laterally outside of both absorbent body edges in the widthwise direction, a plurality of first fluid channels and a plurality of second fluid channels for inflow of body fluid that has exuded from the absorbent body, the plurality of first fluid channels extending in the lengthwise direction and being aligned in the widthwise direction, the plurality of second fluid channels connecting the adjacent first fluid channels, wherein the top sheet includes a plurality of first protrusions extending in the lengthwise direction and aligned in the widthwise direction, a plurality of second protrusions connecting the adjacent first protrusions, and bottom sections at sections that are to form bases of the first protrusions and the second protrusions, in at least a portion of a region in which the absorbent body is provided, the top sheet further includes a blood modifying agent layer provided on the skin side, in at least the portion of the region in which the absorbent body is provided, wherein each protrusion of the first protrusions comprises a first protruding side and a laterally opposed second protruding side, the first protrusions having a plurality of openings arranged in the lengthwise direction on first and second protruding sides, in at least the portion of the region in which the absorbent body is provided, and wherein the blood modifying agent of the blood modifying agent layer has an IOB of 0.00 to 0.60, a melting point of no higher than 45° C. and a water solubility of no greater than 0.05 g in 100 g of water at 25° C.
