An underpants-type disposable diaper in which an inlet of a dorsal side barrier is easily opened wider. The above problem is solved by an underpants-type disposable diaper in which a barrier sheet extends to a back side of a position on a front side of a back end of an absorber from the position and extends outward in a width direction from positions of both side edges of the absorber in the width direction is included, the barrier sheet has a free part not bonded to a member on a back surface side and a fixed part bonded to the member on the back surface side, a pocket-shaped dorsal side barrier having an inlet opening to a crotch side is formed by the free part of the barrier sheet, and a torsion hardness of a predetermined part including a back end portion of the absorber is 0.18 to 0.32 N.Math.cm/cm.

The present invention relates to an absorbent article comprising: topsheet; a backsheet; an absorbent core disposed in the central region of the absorbent between the top sheet and the backsheet; at least one elongate liquid response barrier member provided on an interior surface of the absorbent article in the peripheral region of the absorbent article and positioned along an outer edge of the absorbent article, either adjacent to or spaced apart from said outer edge, the at least one elongate liquid response barrier member comprising absorbent material and being configured and arranged such that the absorbent material expands upon absorbing liquid and upon expansion of the absorbent material the at least one elongate liquid response barrier member forms a barrier or a seal between the at least one elongate liquid response barrier member and a portion of the body of a wearer of the absorbent article; and wherein the absorbent article further comprises at least one elongate liquid conducting member extending from the central region of the absorbent article to the at least one elongate liquid response barrier member.

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.

An absorbent article includes: front waistline region; rear waistline region; crotch region disposed between front waistline region and rear waistline region; absorbent body that straddles crotch region, front waistline region, and rear waistline region; front exterior body disposed in front waistline region on non-skin surface side of absorbent body. Absorbent body includes absorbent core and front end part extending toward front side from absorbent core, a liquid-impermeable sheet and a liquid-permeable body sheet overlapping liquid-impermeable sheet in thickness direction are disposed at the front end part of absorbent body. Absorbent article includes: sheet non-bonding region where liquid-impermeable sheet and body sheet are not bonded; and body non-bonding region where absorbent body and front exterior body are not bonded. Front end part includes duplicating region where sheet non-bonding region and body non-bonding region overlap to each other.

A disposable absorbent article, having a front-back direction that is perpendicular to a width direction and a thickness direction that extends from a skin contact surface side to a non-skin contact surface side of a wearer, includes: an absorbent constituent; a liquid-permeable topsheet that is disposed on the skin contact surface side of the absorbent constituent; and a leakage-preventing sheet that is disposed on at least one of an outside, in the thickness direction, of the absorbent constituent, and an outside, in the width direction, of the absorbent constituent. The leakage-preventing sheet includes a water repelling layer including a nonwoven fabric. The nonwoven fabric of the water repelling layer includes fiber and has an average fiber diameter of 0.5 to 10 m. The water repelling layer includes a water repelling section where a group of particles adhere to a surface of the fiber.

A disposable absorbent article for wearing about the lower torso of a wearer is provided. The disposable absorbent article has a chassis including: a topsheet; a backsheet containing a polymeric film; and an absorbent core disposed between the topsheet and the backsheet. The polymeric film is at least 20 mm more narrow than the chassis. The disposable absorbent article has an opacity strengthening patch disposed on the backsheet, wherein the opacity strengthening patch is connected to one of the group consisting of the leg gasketing system, the polymeric film layer, and the backsheet by an adhesive. The adhesive includes: an amorphous polyolefin composition and a heterophase polyolefin composition having an amorphous character and crystalline blocks. The adhesive is substantially tackifier-free.

A flow of an excretion liquid into a side pocket is accomplished with a simple structure using an imperforated sheet. A side pocket extending in a front-back direction LD is disposed in an absorbent article on a lateral side of an absorber. The side pocket is surrounded by a side cover portion reaching the back surface side of the absorber from above a side of a top sheet via an upper portion, an outer side, and a lower portion of the side pocket. A portion located above the side of the top sheet in the side cover portion includes a non-bonded portion not bonded to the top sheet and a bonded portion located on both front and back sides of the non-bonded portion. A gap between the side cover portion and the top sheet in the non-bonded portion is open above the top sheet and toward the side pocket.
