Airlaid composite sheet material and method

Provided is a composite sheet that is particularly useful as an AQDL component in absorbent articles. The composite sheet includes a fluid acquisition component and an airlaid component. The airlaid component may include one or more airlaid layers that are successively formed overlying each other. Each of the airlaid layers are adjacent to, and in direct contact with, immediately adjacent layers of the airlaid component so that adjacent layers are in fluid communication with respect to each other. The fluid acquisition component includes a nonwoven fabric comprising a carded nonwoven fabric comprised of a plurality of staple fibers that are air through bonded to each other to form a coherent nonwoven fabric. The airlaid layer(s) include a blend of cellulose and non-cellulose staple fibers. The staple fibers may be bicomponent fibers having a polyethyelene sheath and a polypropylene or polyethylene terephthalate core, and mixtures of such fibers.

Wetness indicator textile

The technology described herein relates to a pair of long pants garment panel comprising a pattern of a durable water-repellant (DWR) coating that is selectively applied on to the pant legs of the pair of long pants. The pattern is comprised of a plurality of discrete shapes that are isolated from one another. In other words, the textile material surrounding each discrete shape in the plurality of discrete shapes is not coated by the DWR coating. A size of the plurality of discrete shapes in the pattern is gradually decreased moving up the pant legs starting from a hemmed edge up to a knee area. The pattern is visible during wet conditions and not visible during dry conditions.

THIN-FILM TYPE HIGHLY MOISTURE-TRANSMISSIVE FIBER SHEET
20190145047 · 2019-05-16 · ·

A thin film-type high moisture transferable fiber sheet includes a thin film coating layer formed on one side of the hydrophilic fiber sheet, in which the thin film coating layer is formed such that a hydrophobic coating agent is coated on a portion of the one side of the fiber sheet in a thin film-type.

WETNESS INDICATOR ARTICLE
20190133225 · 2019-05-09 ·

The technology described herein relates to a three-layer outerwear garment panel comprising an outer layer, a middle membrane layer that is water resistant, and an inner layer. A water-repellant coating such as a durable water-repellant (DWR) coating is selectively applied to the outer layer, leaving areas of the outer layer free from the water-repellant coating. When precipitation hits the garment, the water is absorbed in the non-coated portions to reveal a pattern of shapes formed by the non-coated portions.

MULTI-LAYERED COATED FABRIC FOR PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT
20240225152 · 2024-07-11 ·

A coating fabric and method of manufacturing the same are provided. A coated fabric includes a base coating layer. The base coating layer defines a smooth coating to resist liquid penetration to the fabric. The coated fabric also includes a middle foam coating layer that is deposited on at least a portion of the base coating layer. The middle foam layer defines a middle layer foam density and is configured to absorb at least a portion of liquid. The coated fabric further includes an outer foam coating layer that is deposited on at least a portion of the middle foam coating later. The outer foam layer defines an outer layer foam density and is configured with holes to allow liquid to penetrate to the middle foam layer. The middle layer foam density is less than the outer layer foam density. A corresponding method of manufacturing is also provided.

FULLY COATED GLOVE HAVING MOISTURE WICKING PROPERTY
20240277089 · 2024-08-22 ·

A fully coated glove having a moisture wicking property is provided, which includes a palm body, a moisture wicking layer, and a shielding layer. Each of the moisture wicking layer and the shielding layer is prepared by using a raw material including waterborne polyurethane or solvent-based polyurethane. The moisture wicking layer is a foam layer with a thickness of 0.1 mm to 0.3 mm; the shielding layer is a non-foam layer with a thickness of 0.03 mm to 0.2 mm. The preparation process includes following steps: molding of the palm body; preparing the moisture wicking layer that is foamed by coating; water washing; drying; preparing the shielding layer that is not foamed by coating; drying; demolding of the finished product; and packaging. Polyurethane is used as the raw material of the coating in the glove provided by the present disclosure, so as to associatedly combine the foam layer and non-foam layer.
