A substantially flat disposable absorbent article for wearing adjacent a body discharge area having a longitudinal centreline and a lateral centreline orthogonal thereto and defining longitudinal and lateral directions respectively. The disposable absorbent article comprises a liquid pervious topsheet, a backsheet joined to the topsheet and an absorbent core intermediate the backsheet and the topsheet. The absorbent core comprises a layer of compressed, cellulose based, linear fibres for expanding the article into a tridimensional structure while being worn by a user. The layer of compressed, cellulose based, linear fibres is activated by body fluids. <IMAGE> <IMAGE> |
