Water-Degradable Environmentally Friendly Sanitary Napkin
20230121410 · 2023-04-20 ·

The present disclosure relates to an environmentally friendly sanitary napkin including: a permeable inner sheet configured to come into contact with a skin and allow secretions to pass therethrough; an impermeable waterproof outer sheet having the same size and shape as those of the inner sheet and bonded to the inner sheet by fusion; an absorbent pad fixedly inserted between the inner sheet and the waterproof outer sheet and configured to absorb secretions such as menstrual blood that passes through the inner sheet; and an adhesive pad inserted into an appropriate position between the absorbent pad and the waterproof outer sheet, and provided on the absorbent pad and the lower surface of the waterproof outer sheet, and configured to fix the sanitary napkin by adhesion to the inside of underwear, wherein the inner sheet, the waterproof outer sheet, the absorbent pad and the adhesive pad are degradable in water or are biodegradable.

The environmentally friendly sanitary napkin of the present disclosure is degradable by a large amount of water in a septic tank when flushed down a toilet bowl after use, and is biodegradable in soil, thus preventing environmental pollution problems.

In addition, the environmentally friendly sanitary napkin may exhibit antimicrobial effects against harmful bacteria in the vagina and exhibit an excellent effect on sanitariness by suppressing the generation of odor caused by secretions.

PEEL AND PLACE DRESSING FOR NEGATIVE-PRESSURE THERAPY
20230190533 · 2023-06-22 ·

A dressing for treating a tissue site with negative pressure may comprise a cover having an adhesive, a manifold, a perforated polymer film, and a perforated silicone gel having a treatment aperture. The cover, the manifold, the perforated polymer film, and the perforated silicone gel may be assembled in a stacked relationship with the cover and the perforated silicone gel enclosing the manifold. The perforated polymer film may be at least partially exposed through the treatment aperture, and at least some of the adhesive may be exposed through the perforated silicone around the treatment aperture.

Shaped nonwoven

A nonwoven fabric. The nonwoven fabric can include a first surface and a second surface and a visually discernible pattern of three-dimensional features on one of the first or second surface. Each of the three-dimensional features can define a microzone comprising a first region and a second region. The first and second regions can have a difference in values for an intensive property, and wherein in at least one of the microzones the first region exhibits a Contact Angle of greater than 90 degrees, as measured by the Contact Angle Test Method detailed herein.

Absorbent article

An objective is to provide an absorbent article that can prevent backflow and can reduce water retention in a front sheet as much as possible. In an incontinence pad 1 for use with a medium or larger volume that absorbs 20 cc or a larger volume of urine, a front sheet 3 is formed by coating a water repellent on a spunlace nonwoven fabric that is made of 100 wt. % of cotton fiber. On a skin facing surface side, in a plan view, recess part lines 20, 21 of a diamond-shaped lattice pattern are formed from many first recess part lines 20 that go along a predetermined inclination angle direction and are formed with a constant gap in the pad longitudinal direction and many second recess part lines 21 that go along the inclination angle direction obtained by reversing the first recess part lines 20 in a width direction by the pad longitudinal direction and are formed with a constant gap in the pad longitudinal direction, partition areas 22 of a diamond-shaped lattice shape partitioned by these recess part lines 20, 21 are arranged adjacently in the longitudinal direction and the width direction. Furthermore, many open holes 10 penetrating through both sides are formed at least at an excretion hole corresponding part H.
