A laminate sheet includes a water-vapor permeable polyurethane film having a hard segment phase and a first spunbond nonwoven fabric disposed at one side in a thickness direction of the water-vapor permeable polyurethane film. The first spunbond nonwoven fabric contains stretchable fibers containing a thermoplastic polyurethane and non-stretchable fibers containing a polyolefin. The melting point of the hard segment phase is 65□ or more and 140□ or less.

A dental appliance for positioning a patient's teeth includes a removable orthodontic tooth positioning appliance having teeth receiving cavities shaped to directly receive at least some of the patient's teeth and apply a resilient positioning force to the patient's teeth. The appliance includes a hard polymer layer having a hard polymer layer elastic modulus disposed between a first soft polymer layer having a first soft polymer layer elastic modulus and a second soft polymer layer having a second soft polymer layer elastic modulus. The hard polymer layer elastic modulus is greater than each of the first soft polymer layer elastic modulus and the second soft polymer layer elastic modulus. At least one of the first soft polymer layer and the second soft polymer layer has a flexural modulus of greater than about 35,000 psi.

A polymeric film, sheet, or extrusion coating is formed as a multilayered structure having at least one A layer and at least one B layer. The polymeric film, sheet, or extrusion coating is able to include at least 30% recycled content resin while also exhibiting improved stiffness and strength relative to films with purely virgin polymers. One embodiment of the present invention further presents improved oxygen barrier properties relative to existing films, sheets, or extrusion coatings. Due to the strong structural properties, the polymeric film, sheet, or extrusion coating allows for the inclusion of recycled content into applications where recycled content has previously not been able to be included, such as flexible food, pharmaceutical, or cosmetics packaging.

A multi-ply tissue paper product includes at least three plies. The tissue paper product includes a first inner ply being a creped ribbed ply and having a basis weight of 10 to 30 gsm, and a first outermost ply and a second outermost ply on each side of said inner ply, the first and second outermost plies being non-ribbed plies, wherein a creped ribbed ply is a ply including ribs and valleys providing an average core roughness Rk in the range 10 to 300 μm, and peaks being 4 to 12 per cm as measured along said first direction; and wherein a non-ribbed ply is a ply displaying no parallel ribs and valleys extending continuously along any direction of the ply or displaying parallel ribs and valleys extending continuously along any direction of the ply, the ribs and valleys providing peaks being less than 4 per cm.

A spunbond nonwoven laminate has a stack of at least two and at most four spunbond nonwoven layers each formed by or consisting of crimped continuous filaments. A degree of crimping of the filaments in each of the spunbond nonwoven layers is different from a degree of crimping in each of the other spunbond nonwoven layers and each of the crimped filaments of the spunbond nonwoven layers has a crimp with at least two loops per centimeter of length. The crimped filaments of the spunbond nonwoven layers are multicomponent filaments each having at least one first plastic component and at least one second plastic component with each of the plastic components being present in the respective filament in a proportion of at least 10 wt %.

An absorbent article is provided. The absorbent article comprises a liquid permeable topsheet on a wearer-facing side of the absorbent article and a garment-facing laminate on a garment-facing side of the absorbent article. The garment-facing laminate comprises a first nonwoven layer and a second layer joined to the first nonwoven layer. The first nonwoven layer comprises a plurality of apertures. At least 3 of the plurality of apertures in a repeat unit have a different Effective Aperture Area, according to the Aperture Test herein, a different shape, or a different Absolute Feret Angle, according to the Aperture Test herein. The absorbent article comprises an absorbent core disposed at least partially intermediate the liquid permeable topsheet and the garment-facing laminate.

The presently disclosed subject matter relates to multi-layer nonwoven materials and their use in absorbent articles. More particularly, the presently disclosed subject matter relates to layered structures that have high absorbency performance while having less absorbent mass than other commercially available materials.

An enhanced, co-formed fibrous web structure is disclosed. The web structure may have a co-formed core layer sandwiched between two scrim layers. The core layer may be formed of a blend of cellulose pulp fibers and melt spun filaments. The scrim layers may be formed of melt spun filaments, and the filaments forming one or both scrim layers may have a number average diameter of 4.5 μm or less. Filaments of one or both of the scrim layers, and optionally the core layer, may also be meltblown filaments. Alternatively, the filaments forming the scrim layers may constitute from 1 to 13 percent of the weight of the structure. Alternatively, the scrim layers may have a combined basis weight of from 0.1 gsm to less than 3.0 gsm. A method for forming the structure, including direct formation of layers, is also disclosed.

A pouch (1) for semi-dense or liquid products and method for manufacturing are disclosed. The pouch (1) comprising a first half (5) and a second half (6) of a flexible sheet material, the flexible sheet material comprises at least an outer layer (10), a tie layer (15) and porous layer (20), the porous layer carrying at least partly a semi-dense or liquid product (25), whereby the first half (5) and the second half (6) form walls of the pouch, their respective porous layers (20) facing a product space formed by the first half (5) and the second half (6) and whereby a sealed seam (30) joins the first half (5) and the second half (6) of the flexible sheet material and peelably seals the pouch, the sealed seam (30) being formed by the tie layer (15) fully impregnating the porous layer (20) in the area of the sealed seam (30) forming a peelable seal.

The present invention provides a sheet-type beauty pack having a convenient use and expected to provide moisture and nutrients to the skin of the face and the like, has a sufficient far infrared ray effect due to a natural material containing minerals, removes impurities, and has a wrinkle alleviation effect due to skin lifting, by applying a beauty pack, which uses a cosmetic material of a natural material containing minerals, in a paste state to a sheet such as nonwoven fabric. The sheet-type beauty pack comprises: a first release paper; a nonwoven fabric of which one surface is laminated with the first release paper and of which the other surface is coated with a cosmetic material in the paste state; and a second release paper laminated on the other surface, coated with the cosmetic material, of the nonwoven fabric.
