Absorbent articles comprising absorbent members comprising absorbent materials having improved absorbent property

An absorbent article comprising:

• (a) a liquid pervious topsheet;
• (b) a liquid impervious backsheet;
• and (c) an absorbent core positioned between said topsheet and said backsheet, wherein said absorbent core comprises an absorbent member comprising at least one region which comprises an absorbent material, wherein said absorbent material comprises a mixture of (1) a plurality of absorbent gelling particles comprising a water-insoluble, water-swellable polymer, and (2) an absorbent property modification polymer reactive with at least one component included in a urine, wherein said plurality of absorbent gelling particles are spontaneously connective through said absorbent property modification polymer in response to an application of urine, and wherein when said absorbent material swells by absorbing a urine and is formed into a predetermined layer of the swollen absorbent material, said layer of the swollen absorbent material has a Saline Flow Conductivity (SFC) value of at least 20.times.10.sup.-7 cm.sup.3 sec/g in the SFC test.
