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, wherein the intensive property is one or more of thickness, basis weight, or volumetric density, and wherein the first surface has a TS7 value different than a TS7 value of the second surface.

Absorbent article having waist gasketing element
An absorbent article for wearing about the lower torso of a wearer includes a first waist region having a first waist edge, a second waist region having a second waist edge, and a crotch region disposed between the first and second waist regions. The article further includes a chassis having a topsheet, a backsheet, and an absorbent core disposed between the topsheet and backsheet. A waist gasketing element is joined to the chassis and disposed in one of the first waist region or the second waist region. The waist gasketing element has a top layer and a bottom layer, and first area, A1. The top layer is bonded to the bottom layer in a closure bond region by a closure bonding technique. The closure bond region has an aggregate closure bond area, BA, which is at least about 10% of the first area, A1.
Natural baby diaper including bamboo fiber
Disclosed are natural baby products and related methods of use. Disposable baby hygiene products, particularly disposable baby hygiene products made with natural, sustainable, environmentally-responsible, and/or biodegradable materials include disposable baby diapers made with bamboo and other natural, sustainable, environmentally-responsible, and/or biodegradable materials and disposable baby swim diapers made with natural, sustainable, environmentally-responsible, and/or biodegradable materials.
Absorbent Articles Having Fully Removable Fastening Members
An absorbent article includes a topsheet, a backsheet, and an absorbent core positioned at least partially intermediate the topsheet and the backsheet. The absorbent article includes a first waist region, a second waist region, and a fully removable fastening member configured to join a portion of the first waist region to the second waist region. The fastening member includes a first end region comprising a first end, a second end region comprising a second end, a first fastener on a first surface of the fastening member and in the first end region, and a second fastener on the first surface and in the second end region. The fastening member includes a grasp region either partially laterally outboard of the first fastener or laterally outboard of the first fastener in the first end region. The grasp region has a different physical property than a remainder of the fastening member.
Absorbent article with cover nonwoven fabric having improved air permeability
An absorber, a liquid impervious sheet covering a back surface side of the absorber and having air permeability, and a cover nonwoven fabric covering a back surface side of the liquid impervious sheet are provided. The cover nonwoven fabric has a large number of holes penetrating the front surface and back surface at intervals in a region overlapping with the liquid impervious sheet. Edge portions of the holes bend-up toward a front surface side. In a region having the holes in the cover nonwoven fabric, rows of the holes, which are aligned in the front-back direction at intervals in the front-back direction narrower than the dimension in the front-back direction of each of the holes, are repeatedly formed at predetermined intervals in the width direction, and the interval of the adjacent two holes in the width direction is wider than the dimension in the front back-direction of the hole.
THREE DIMENSIONAL NONWOVEN AND ABSORBENT ARTICLES HAVING THE SAME
The present disclosure relates to a three dimensional nonwoven comprising a protruded area comprising a first area having a first light reflectance and a second area having a second light reflectance. The three dimensional nonwoven comprises a recess comprising a third area having a third light reflectance, wherein the first light reflectance is different from the second light reflectance, as measured according to Light Reflectance Test. The present disclosure also related to an absorbent article comprising the three dimensional nonwoven.
ABSORBENT ARTICLE WITH CLOSURE MECHANISM
Embodiments relate to an absorbent pant that includes longitudinally opposing first and second waist regions and a crotch region between the first and second waist regions. Longitudinally opposing first and second waist panels are disposed in the first and second waist regions and connect to form a waist opening and a pair of leg apertures. A fastening zone area is disposed on at least one surface of the absorbent pant. In a wrapped configuration, at least one of the waist panels is configured to be laterally folded inward to engage the fastening zone area such that at least one of the leg apertures is at least partially sealed.
STRETCHABLE MEMBER AND DISPOSABLE WEARABLE ARTICLE HAVING STRETCHABLE MEMBER
A stretchable member has a second sheet layer with an exposed portion, first sheet layer, and elastic sheet interposed therebetween. The second and the first sheet layers are joined at multiple sheet joining portions arranged at intervals through joining holes penetrating the elastic sheet or via the elastic sheet, and vent holes each opened at least in a spread state by displacement of the edge of each joining hole away from the circumferential edge of each sheet joining portion in the stretchable direction ED. The colors of the external surface of the elastic sheet and of portions of the external surface of the first sheet layer observed through the vent holes are observable through the second sheet layer, and the color difference ΔE between the colors of the external surface of the elastic sheet and of the external surface of the first sheet layer is 30 or more.
