The present disclosure relates to an array of disposable inserts (25,26) for an absorbent assembly (1), the array comprising: a first package comprising a plurality of first inserts (25) for an absorbent assembly (1), configured to be arranged on or at least partially within an outer shell (2); a second package comprising a plurality of second inserts (26) for absorbent assembly (1), configured to be arranged on or at least partially within an outer shell (2); each first and second insert (25,26) comprising a topsheet (8), a backsheet (9) and an absorbent core (10) comprising absorbent material (23) arranged in between the topsheet (8) and backsheet (9);
the first insert (25) comprising a first absorbency as measured by method and the second insert (26) comprising a second absorbency as measured by method; wherein, the first absorbency is greater than the second absorbency. The disclosure also pertains to an absorbent assembly (1) and to an array of absorbent assemblies (1).

A liquid-absorbent disposable male brief, including a brief defining an elastic waistband, a pair of elastic leg bands, and an enclosure extending there between, a fly formed through the enclosure and positioned between the leg bands and defining a first flap and a second flap, a liquid absorbent pad positioned within the enclosure and secured thereto, and at least a first and a second liquid absorbent fly flap liner, each respective fly flap liner operationally connected to a respective flap.

A particulate water-absorbent resin composition is provided which can suppress the odor of trimethylamine in addition to the odor of acetaldehyde, in other words, which can simultaneously suppress complex odors. In this particulate water-absorbent resin composition, which contains a hydrazide compound support and a particulate water-absorbent resin, the median particle diameter of the particulate water-absorbent resin is 100-600 m.

The present invention provides a water absorbent resin composition which suppresses acetaldehyde odor, while being suppressed in coloring with time. A water absorbent resin composition which contains a hydrazide compound carrier and a water absorbent resin, wherein: the degree of yellowing is 10 or less if 2.0 g of this water absorbent resin composition is held at a temperature of 70° C. at a relative humidity of 90% for 7 days; and if 10.0 g of this water absorbent resin composition and 900 ml of a nitrogen gas having an acetaldehyde concentration of 20 ppm are sealed in a hermetically sealed bag having a volumetric capacity of 2 liters, the acetaldehyde concentration of the gas in the hermetically sealed hag measured after a lapse of one hour is 15 ppm or less.

The present invention relates to an odor control material consisting of a water-insoluble particulate odor control agent and a thermoplastic water-soluble carrier matrix encapsulating the odor control agent. The carrier matrix dissolves when in contact with an aqueous solution, such as urine and the odor control material is obtained by means of thermoforming. The invention relates also to a method for the preparation of the odor control material and the use of the odor control material in absorbent products. The present odor control material minimizes dusting problems caused by particulate odor control agents in production processes.

The present invention is intended to provide an absorbent article that is excellent in anti-odor effect at the time of disposal. A pants-type disposable diaper includes an anti-odor tape that has a first gas barrier layer coupled to the pants-type disposable diaper and a second gas barrier layer that is stuck in a separable manner to either front or back surface of the first gas barrier layer via an adhesive agent containing an anti-odor agent. The anti-odor tape takes an anti-odor measure by separating the second gas barrier layer from the first gas barrier layer to expose the adhesive agent to the outside at the time of disposal of the pants-type disposable diaper.

Odor control articles (10) including hydrophobic polymers of intrinsic porosity (HPIM) and their use in personal care products and hygienic products is disclosed. The odor control article (10) includes a HPIM and a colorant. The odor control article (10) may be applied to a substrate (11), and more specifically to a liquid absorbent member (30), to form an odor-absorbing member (20). The substrate (11) may absorb liquid. The odor-absorbing member (20) may be placed in such products as diapers (200), incontinence pads (60) and refrigerator pads. A method of making an odor control suspension with HPIMs including the use of surfactants is also disclosed. The odor control suspension may also be applied to a substrate (11).

An absorbent article comprising a complexed or encapsulated malodor control composition having at least one volatile aldehyde and an acid catalyst, and methods of use thereof, are provided. The malodor control composition is suitable for a variety of absorbent articles, including use in diapers, toddler training pants, adult incontinence garments, sanitary napkins, pantiliners, interlabial devices, hemorrhoid pads, and the like.

Cellulosic pulp structures integrating unreacted quantities of an inorganic peroxide and a destabilizing acid, as binary components of an odor control system, absorbent articles incorporating such structures, and various methods of forming the same, are disclosed herein. The components are adapted to react in the presence of an aqueous fluid to produce hydrogen peroxide, thereby providing an antimicrobial and odor mitigating effect.

The present disclosure generally relates to an absorbent pad for use in a garment. The absorbent pad includes: a liquid impermeable barrier layer; a functional layer attached to the barrier layer, the functional layer comprising a liquid absorbent component; a liquid impermeable peripheral sealing element bonded to peripheries of the functional layer and barrier layer; and a peripheral attaching element having a first portion and a second portion, the first portion bonded to the peripheral sealing element. The second portion of the peripheral attaching element is detached from the peripheral sealing element and is arranged to be attached to a fabric body of the garment, thereby attaching the absorbent pad to the garment.
