Abstract

An absorbent structure is provided comprising peat moss in combination with mechanical wood pulp, said wood pulp having a Canadian Standard Freeness of from about 30-600 and present in the ratios, by weight of wood pulp to peat moss, of greater than about 0.35. The absorbent structure, which may also contain other absorbent materials such as long-fibered chemical wood pulp, rayon or the like, exhibits improved absorbent properties in both liquid-holding capacity and liquid- retention capacity and maintains its structural integrity.
