ABSORBENT ARTICLES COMPRISING GARMENT-FACING LAMINATES
An absorbent article is provided. The absorbent article comprises a liquid permeable topsheet on a wearer-facing side of the absorbent article and a garment-facing laminate on a garment-facing side of the absorbent article. The garment-facing laminate comprises a first nonwoven layer and a second layer joined to the first nonwoven layer. The first nonwoven layer comprises a plurality of apertures. At least 3 of the plurality of apertures in a repeat unit have a different Effective Aperture Area, according to the Aperture Test herein, a different shape, or a different Absolute Feret Angle, according to the Aperture Test herein. The absorbent article comprises an absorbent core disposed at least partially intermediate the liquid permeable topsheet and the garment-facing laminate.
Super Absorbent Polymer Film and Absorbent Article Comprising the Same
The present disclosure relates to a super absorbent polymer film having excellent moisture absorption and to an absorbent article excellent in feeling capable of reducing skin rashes and other irritations generated when warmed by the wearer's body by including the super absorbent polymer film to improve external dampness.
WEARABLE ARTICLE HAVING ARTWORK
Disclosed is a wearable article comprising a main body and a ring-like elastic belt comprising an outer cover layer, a backsheet, a front belt artwork region; and a back belt artwork region; and wherein one or both of the front and back belt artwork regions comprises a belt artwork; a transitional region on the front waist panel and the back waist panel where the outer cover layer exists; and a crotch artwork region on the crotch panel comprising a crotch artwork; wherein at least some of the belt artwork and some of the crotch artwork are printed on the backsheet, wherein when the opacity of the outer cover layer is OC and the opacity of one or both of the front belt and the back belt comprising the belt artwork is OB, respectively, the difference between OC and OB is less than about 20%.
Multilayered nonwoven fabrics and method of making the same
A nonwoven composite fabric including a first nonwoven layer composed substantially of meltblown fibers, the fibers within the first nonwoven layer having diameters that vary in accordance with a first distribution, a second nonwoven layer composed substantially of meltblown fibers, the fibers within the second nonwoven layer having diameters that vary in accordance with a second distribution, and a third nonwoven layer composed substantially of meltblown fibers, the third nonwoven layer disposed between the first and second nonwoven layers, the fibers within the third nonwoven layer having diameters that vary in accordance with a third distribution that is greater than the first and second distributions.
ABSORBENT SANITARY ARTICLE AND A METHOD FOR PRODUCING THE SAME
An absorbent sanitary article includes a chassis having a front section and a rear section, a micro-hook front panel integrally formed on a portion of a backsheet in the front section of the chassis and two back side panels attached to the rear section of the chassis and having respective micro-loop areas configured for forming a hook-and-loop connection with the micro-hook front panel.
DISPOSABLE WEARABLE ARTICLE
A disposable wearable article has a top sheet constituting a surface for use, a liquid-impervious sheet provided on the under face side, and an absorbent element interposed therebetween, wherein the top sheet is formed of perforated nonwoven fabric having a number of holes arranged at intervals and each penetrating two sides of the fabric. The absorbent element includes an absorber body and a packing sheet covering the absorber body. The packing sheet is formed of laminated nonwoven fabric having a spunbonded layer and a melt-blown layer, and a moisturizer composed mainly of glycerin is applied to an exterior surface of the top sheet.
Pants-type disposable diaper
A pants-type disposable diaper (1) having a front body part (P), a back body part (Q) and a crotch part (R) positioned therebetween and formed in a pants shape, comprising an absorbent body (7) situated at least at the crotch part (R) and comprising a top sheet, a back sheet and an absorbent core (10) disposed therebetween, and an exterior member (2) provided on an outer side of the absorbent body (7) and situated at least at the front body part (P) and the back body part (Q), wherein the exterior member (2) comprises an outer sheet (5) and an inner sheet (6) provided on a skin-facing side of the outer sheet (5), and the outer sheet (5) is made of a nonwoven fabric having a meltblown nonwoven layer and a printed part is provided to the skin-facing side of the outer sheet (5).
Patterned apertured webs
A patterned apertured web is disclosed. The patterned apertured web includes a plurality of land areas in the patterned apertured web and a plurality of apertures defined in the patterned apertured web. At least some land areas of the plurality of land areas surround at least some apertures of the plurality of apertures. The patterned apertured web has an Effective Open Area in the range of about 3% to about 30%, according to the Aperture Test herein. The plurality of apertures include a first set of apertures defining a first shape and a second set of apertures defining a second shape. The first shape is positioned within the second shape.
Strand-based laminates in absorbent articles
Absorbent articles comprising a multilayer outer cover comprising a first outer layer and a second outer layer comprising a component that exhibits at least partial elastic recovery after mechanical activation in the machine direction; an inner layer, disposed between the first outer layer and the second outer layer, the inner layer comprising elastic strands; and wherein at least one of the first outer layer and second outer layer is laminated to the inner layer.
LAMINATE FOR USE IN AN ABSORBENT ARTICLE
A laminate including a substrate layer and a fibrous layer. The fibrous layer includes cellulose fibers and irregularly shaped lumps of a hotmelt material. The lumps of hotmelt material may at least partially bond the cellulose fibers together, thus increasing the integrity and resilience of the fibrous layer.
