Since the density of the core wrap 40b is higher than the density of the top sheet 50, the body fluid is easily guided from the top sheet 50 side to the absorber 40 side (non-skin facing surface side). Therefore, body fluid can be drawn into the absorber 40 side while diffusing in the front-rear direction, and it is easy to effectively utilize the absorption performance over the entire area of the absorber 40 in the thickness direction.

The basis weight can be calculated by dividing each weight by the area, and the density can be calculated by dividing each weight by the volume (thickness ⁇ area).
  • the inter-fiber distance of the core wrap 40b is smaller than the inter-fiber distance of the top sheet 50. Since the inter-fiber distance of the core wrap 40b is smaller than the inter-fiber distance of the top sheet 50, the body fluid is easily guided from the top sheet 50 side to the absorber 40 side (non-skin facing surface side). In general, when the inter-fiber distance is large, a gap formed between the fibers is large, and body fluid is easily guided into the gap. Since the inter-fiber distance of the top sheet 50 is relatively large, body fluid quickly passes (permeates) in the thickness direction of the top sheet 50. On the other hand, when the interfiber distance is small, the gap formed between the fibers is small.
  • the gap formed between the fibers is small, the interval between adjacent fibers is narrow, so that the body fluid spreads (diffuses) not only in the thickness direction but also in the plane direction through the adjacent fibers. Therefore, when the body fluid quickly passes through the top sheet 50 in the thickness direction and reaches the core wrap, the body fluid passes through the gap in the thickness direction and reaches the absorption core while diffusing in the plane direction. Therefore, the body fluid is easily guided from the top sheet 50 side to the absorber 40 side (non-skin facing surface side).
