The invention relates to a hygiene product for personal use, which comprises at least an impermeable breathable outer first layer (11), a liquid-absorbing second layer (12) and a third layer (13) of non-woven fabric intended to be in contact with the skin of the user. The hygiene product can be a sanitary towel, dressing, tampon, absorbent nappy, nursing pad or similar product or use. The absorbent second layer (12) comprises a hydrophilic cotton core formed by separated fibers facing or oriented in all directions. The absorbent second layer (12) and/or cotton non-woven third layer (13) of the product preferably incorporate a plurality of microcapsules (3) containing active ingredients (32) for treating the skin, said ingredients being encapsulated in an outer cover (31) of biocompatible material that degrades during the use of the hygiene product and releases the active ingredients (32) during the use of the hygiene product (1).

An absorbent article capable of giving a sense of higher security to a user is provided. The absorbent article includes nonwoven fabric. The nonwoven fabric includes organic cotton fibers. The organic cotton fibers form a plurality of fiber lumps in the nonwoven fabric. The fiber lumps are configured to be visible from the outside. The light transmittance of the portion corresponding to the fiber lumps in the nonwoven fabric is lower than the light transmittance of a portion where the fiber lumps are not present in the nonwoven fabric.

An absorbent article capable of giving a sense of security to a user is provided. The absorbent article includes a nonwoven fabric. The nonwoven fabric includes organic cotton fibers and thermoplastic synthetic fibers. The organic cotton fibers form a plurality of fiber lumps in the nonwoven fabric. The surface of the organic cotton fibers is not coated with a petroleum-derived oil agent.

The present invention discloses a absorbent article configured for attachment to the interior of an child potty/bed pan or to be worn on an user. The absorbent article composes an absorbent core, first absorbent channel layer, intermediate channel layer and top permeable layer composes made up of permeable materials and further comprises an material capable of converting an liquid substance to an gel-like substance. Specifically, regions of the absorbent core first absorbent channel layer and intermediate channel layer may comprise an super absorbent polymer (SAP) material such as hydrogel, sodium polyacrylate, polyacrylate absorbents, or an biodegradable material such as an powder corn starch or wheat mixture or an combination of super absorbent polymer (SAP) and an biodegradable material.

An apertured nonwoven web is provided. The apertured nonwoven web comprises carded fibers, a first side, and a second side. The apertured nonwoven web defines a plurality of apertures therein. The apertures may each have a first side aperture size and a second side aperture size, and a ratio of the first side aperture size to the second side aperture size may be between about 1.15:1 to about 1:1.15. The plurality of apertures may have an aperture size regularity of about 1% to about 15%. The plurality of apertures may have an aperture shape regularity between about 1% to about 12%.

The present invention provides an absorbent which is suppressed in leakage and back-flow of an absorbed liquid. An absorbent which contains a water absorbent resin, wherein: the water absorbent resin has a saline holding capacity of 45 g/g or more and a five-minute value of DW under no pressure of 45 ml/g or more; and the weight per square meter of the water absorbent resin in the absorbent is 50 g/m.sup.2 to 350 g/m.sup.2.

An absorbent article capable of giving a sense of higher security to a user is provided. The absorbent article includes nonwoven fabric. The nonwoven fabric includes organic cotton fibers. The organic cotton fibers form a plurality of fiber lumps in the nonwoven fabric. The fiber lumps are configured to be visible from the outside. The light transmittance of the portion corresponding to the fiber lumps in the nonwoven fabric is lower than the light transmittance of a portion where the fiber lumps are not present in the nonwoven fabric.

An absorbent article includes an absorber including cells, each of which is surrounded by bonded portions of a front surface side sheet and a back surface side sheet and in each of which the front surface side sheet and the back surface side seat are not bonded, and including superabsorbent polymer particles contained in each of the cells. The bonded portions are arranged in dotted line shapes according to a pattern in which same-sized octagonal portions having all interior angles of 135, and having two pairs of opposite sides whose facing directions are mutually orthogonal are equal in length, and diamond-shaped portions each having equal length of all sides and being formed in portions among the octagonal portions, are arranged without any space in the front-back direction (LD) or the width direction (WD).

An absorbent article is provided. The absorbent article includes a nonwoven, liquid permeable topsheet, a liquid impermeable backsheet, and an absorbent core disposed at least partially intermediate the topsheet and the backsheet. The topsheet includes a layer of fibers and has a plurality of apertures defined in the layer of fibers. At least some of the apertures have a side wall having a portion disposed an angle in the range of about 55 degrees to about 90 degrees, in the range of about 60 degrees to about 80 degrees, or in the range of about 63 degrees to about 75 degrees, according to the 2D X-Ray CT Scan Test herein.

Technical problem

A disposable diaper having excellent performances in both the absorbable capacity and the absorption rate, is provided.

Solution to problem

The above problem is solved by a pad type disposable diaper 200, in which a top sheet 22 is formed of a thermoplastic nonwoven fabric, and absorbent bodies 23A and 23B are formed of a lower layer absorbent body 23B and an upper layer absorbent body 23A provided on a front surface of the lower layer absorbent body 23B, wherein a slit 40 having a predetermined width is provided in the upper layer absorbent body 23A at least at a crotch portion C2 so as to extend in a front-back direction, and the slit 40 having the predetermined width is not provided in the lower layer absorbent body 23B, the top sheet 22 includes a depressed portion 30 that is depressed into the slit 40, and multiple low permeation portions 80 are provided with intervals at least in the depressed portion 30, the low permeation portions 80 being portions in which fibers are welded to each other in a state of being compressed in a thickness direction.
