Abstract
There is disclosed an absorptive article including a liquid-permeable surface material on a liquid receiving side. The surface material is formed of a nonwoven fabric including an upper layer to face the skin of a wearer, and a lower layer positioned under the upper layer. At least the fibers forming the upper layer contain titanium oxide. The fibers forming the lower layer have a lower elongation percentage and a higher tensile strength, as measured according to the JIS L 1013, than those of the fibers forming the upper layer.
