Meaning "what soaks up efficiently or effectively," the term "absorbent" has a number of mainly practical usages in contemporary English. One such use is modeled in the following sentence: "She threw aside the rag while calling out that something much more absorbent was going to be needed to clean up the mess -- and quickly, too."
