An absorbent article.

摘要

An absorbent article, such as a sanitary napkin, which is designed to absorb menstrual fluid including a liquid-impermeable baffle (14), a first absorbent layer (12) and a second absorbent layer (13). The second absorbent layer (13) is positioned between the baffle (14) and the first absorbent layer (12) and has a higher transverse wicking rate than the first absorbent layer (12). The absorbent article can be visually inspected to determine if it is near its maximum fluid capacity before leakage occurs.
