Provided is an absorbent article which includes a backsheet, a liquid-pervious topsheet and an absorbent core sandwiched between the backsheet and the topsheet. At least the backsheet is made from a water-decomposable material. The backsheet is formed of a fibrous sheet that contains water-dispersible fibers and water-insoluble carboxymethyl cellulose. The water-insoluble carboxymethyl cellulose has a degree of etherification (D.S.) falling between 0.3 and 0.6, and is modified so that the hydrogens of at least 95% of carboxylic acids therein are substituted with metal.

1. A water-decomposable absorbent article, comprising: a water-decomposable backsheet having two ends, a water-decomposable liquid-pervious topsheet having two ends different from the two ends of said backsheet, a water-decomposable absorbent core sandwiched between the backsheet and the top
1. A water-decomposable absorbent article, comprising: a water-decomposable backsheet having two ends, a water-decomposable liquid-pervious topsheet having two ends different from the two ends of said backsheet, a water-decomposable absorbent core sandwiched between the backsheet and the topsheet, and a water-swellable adhesive layer provided on a garment facing surface of the backsheet for securing the absorbent article to a garment, the adhesive layer being formed in a predetermined pattern to occupy 10 to 50% of the garment facing surface of the backsheet, the backsheet being formed of a spunlaced nonwoven fabric having a basic weight within the range from 10 to 50 g/m 2, the nonwoven fabric comprising water-dispersible fibers having a length of at most 20 mm and water-insoluble carboxymethyl cellulose having a degree of etherification within the range from 0.43 to 0.6 and being modified so that hydrogens of at least 95% of carboxylic acids therein are substituted with metal, a content of the water-insoluble carboxymethyl cellulose being from 1 to 30% by weight of the nonwoven fabric, the nonwoven fabric having a surface strength of at least 4 in terms of wax number, a breaking strength of at least 9.8 N/25 mm relative to a tensile load applied thereto in a horizontal direction of the sheet, a breaking strength of at least 1.5 N/18 mm in a vertical direction, and a water-decomposability of at most 120 seconds.2. The absorbent article as set forth in claim 1, wherein the metal is at least one selected from the group consisting of calcium, sodium, magnesium, zinc, manganese, lithium, barium, and aluminum.3. The absorbent article as set forth in claim 1, wherein the water-dispersible fibers are fibers of at least one selected from the group consisting of pulp, regenerated cellulose, abaca, and linter pulp.4. The absorbent article as set forth in claim 1, wherein a water-soluble thermoplastic resin layer is applied to the absorbent side of said backsheet.5. The absorbent article as set forth in claim 1, wherein the garment facing surface of said backsheet is liquid-impervious and coated with a water-soluble resin.6. A water-decomposable absorbent sanitary napkin, comprising: a water-decomposable backsheet having two ends, a water-decomposable liquid-pervious topsheet having two ends different from the two ends of said backsheet, a water-decomposable absorbent core sandwiched between the backsheet and the topsheet, and a water-swellable adhesive layer provided on a garment facing surface of the backsheet for securing the sanitary napkin to a garment, the adhesive layer being formed in a predetermined pattern to occupy 10 to 50% of the garment facing surface of the backsheet, the backsheet being formed of a spunlaced nonwoven fabric having a basic weight within the range from 10 to 50 g/m 2, the nonwoven fabric comprising water-dispersible fibers having a length of at most 20 mm and water-insoluble carboxyethyl cellulose having a degree of etherification within the range from 0.43 to 0.6 and being modified so that hydrogens of at least 95% of carboxylic acids therein are substituted with metal, a content of the water-insoluble carboxyethyl cellulose being from 1 to 30% by weight of the nonwoven fabric, the nonwoven fabric having a surface strength of at least 4 in terms of wax number, a breaking strength of at least 9.8 N/25 mm relative to a tensile load applied thereto in a horizontal direction of the sheet, a breaking strength of at least 1.5 N/18 mm in a vertical direction, and a water-decomposability of at most 120 seconds.
