The present layered stretchable sheet includes: a plurality of attachment portions at which a pair of non-woven fabrics and a film are thermally bonded together, wherein each one of the attachment portions includes at least one thermal bonding area where the pair of non-woven fabrics and the film are thermally bonded together; at least one boundary line that defines the thermal bonding area; a first vent that is defined by a first opening of the film appearing in a stretched state of the film along the boundary line and that exerts air permeability; and a second vent that is defined by a second opening where a part of the film is absent, the second opening being adjacent to the thermal bonding area and being delimited by the boundary line, wherein the second vent exerts air permeability both in the stretched state and in a non-stretched state.

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.

A disposable absorbent article is described herein. The disposable absorbent article includes a topsheet, a backsheet, and an absorbent system disposed between the topsheet and the backsheet. At least a portion of the has a plurality of conforming features such that the absorbent article has a blot residual value of less than 30 mg and a bending stiffness of less than 12.

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, wherein the intensive property is one or more of thickness, basis weight, or volumetric density, and wherein the first surface has a TS7 value of less than about 15 dB V2 rms.

Disclosed herein are nucleotide analogs, methods of synthesizing nucleotide analogs and methods of treating diseases and/or conditions such as a HBV and/or HDV and/or HIV infection with one or more nucleotide analogs.

Disclosed is a nonwoven laminate having a texture for improved absorption and distribution of body liquids in sanitary products. The absorption and distribution effect is caused by perforations distributed in a pattern-like manner in combination with elevations present on one side of the nonwoven laminate.

An absorbent has longitudinal and lateral centerlines, first, second, and target regions, the target region being disposed between the first second regions. Each of the first, second target regions extend laterally across the disposable absorbent article. The disposable absorbent article also has a topsheet; a backsheet; an absorbent core disposed between the topsheet and backsheet; a fluid management layer disposed between the topsheet and absorbent core; and a target zone disposed in the target region. The target zone has a first plurality of conforming features in at least the absorbent core or a combination of the absorbent core and at least one of the topsheet or fluid management layer. The absorbent article also has a long fiber network.

A process of making an absorbent article is disclosed. A liquid permeable topsheet web extending substantially continuously in a machine direction a backsheet web, and an intermediate layer are provided. The topsheet web has first and second surfaces. The backsheet web extends substantially continuously in the machine direction. The intermediate layer has a first and second surface. The topsheet and intermediate layer are aligned in a face to face relationship such that the second surface of the topsheet in in contact with the first surface of the intermediate layer and simultaneously mechanically deformed which combines the topsheet with the intermediate layer. The topsheet web and intermediate layer are nested together such that a majority of the three-dimensional protrusions formed in the topsheet web coincide with and fit together with a majority of the three-dimensional protrusions formed in the intermediate layer to provide a topsheet/intermediate layer laminate web having three-dimensional protrusions.

An absorbent article for minimizing detachment between a top sheet and absorbent body, for stably maintaining an absorption performance, while maintaining a satisfactory feel on a skin of the top sheet. The top sheet has a plurality of raised sections extended in a lengthwise direction at predetermined intervals in a widthwise direction, and a plurality of furrow sections extended in the lengthwise direction between the raised sections. The furrow section has a first recess section including a first bottom section, and a plurality of second recess sections inside the first recess section. The second recess section includes a second bottom section having a highest fiber density of the top sheet. A portion at a second surface of a top section of the raised section is not joined to an absorbent body. The second bottom section of the second recess section of the furrow section is joined to the absorbent body.

A non-woven functional core cover for use in combination with an absorbent core, where said functional core cover comprises at least a first fraction comprising lyocell fibres, and characterised in that a majority of said fibres are oriented in the same direction. Thus, the absorbent core cover may be considered an absorbent article component. Thereby, a functional core cover having improved wicking properties and improved wet integrity is realised, the advantages allowing reducing the amount of fluff used in the mix with SAP. A reduction of material used in the absorbent core improves the feeling of wearing the absorbent product, e.g. a baby diaper, which in turn facilitate the movement of the baby. The wicking properties cause liquid to be distributed better across the surface of the core cover, such that more of the absorbent core is exposed to the expelled liquid.
