- the shape of the high basis weight portion 4 of the absorbent core 70 in the form shown in FIG. 7 is an oval shape in which the shape of the front end portion and the rear end portion of the high basis weight portion 4 in the above-described embodiment is a substantially semicircular shape.
- a napkin of a comparative example was produced in the same manner as in the napkin of Example 1, except that a sanitary napkin was produced using the absorbent core.
- the absorbent core 70 was provided with a plurality of horizontal grooves 28, vertical grooves 27, peripheral grooves 29, and boundary grooves 60 and 61. The basis weight and thickness of these grooves are the same as in Examples 1 and 2.
- the vertical groove 27 and the peripheral groove 29 each have a groove width of 1.5 mm.
- the groove width of the boundary grooves 60 and 61 was 2 mm, which is the same as the width of the lateral groove 28.
- the three vertical grooves 27 formed in the intermediate core section 22 are located on the same straight line as the five vertical grooves 27 located in the front core section 21 and the rear core section 23, respectively.
- the dimensions in the width direction of each of the block portions 71 provided on the intermediate core portion 21 and the rear core portion 23 were equal in width.
- the basis weight and thickness of the high basis weight part 4 and the low basis weight part 25, and the thickness, density and width of the high basis weight and high thickness part 41 and the high basis weight and low thickness part 42 were the same as those in Example 1.
- the simulated blood was adjusted to have a viscosity of 8 mPa ⁇ s measured using a B-type viscometer (manufactured by Toki Sangyo Co., Ltd., model number TVB-10M, measurement condition: rotor No. 19, 30 rpm, 25 ° C., 60 seconds).
- the ratio of blood cells / plasma of defibrinated horse blood was used.
- the sanitary napkin to be evaluated was fixed on sanitary shorts and attached to a dynamic model of a human body.
- a dynamic model of a human body a movable female lumbar model capable of walking motion of both legs was used.
- a three-axis tactile sensor (Touchence Corp., Shokkakuchip TS type) was installed at the groin of the dynamic model, and rubbing with the napkin at the groin was measured for one minute after starting the walking motion. One minute later, the walking motion was terminated, and the maximum shear force during walking was defined as the rubbing amount. The smaller the maximum shear force, the smaller the rubbing with the napkin in the groin.
- rubbing between the napkin and the skin can be reduced.
