The leg gasketing system may include an inner cuff and an outer cuff. The inner cuff may include an inner cuff folded edge and an inner cuff material edge and the outer cuff may include an outer cuff folded edge and an outer cuff material edge such that the web of material is folded laterally inward to form the outer cuff folded edge and folded laterally outward to form the inner cuff folded edge.

To provide a pad that folds in three in the front-back direction maintaining the shapes of a large number of convex portions protruding on a front-face sheet that prevents the deterioration of liquid diffusibility. The left front side portion and the left back side portion are folded inward with a first left side folding line which is extending in the front-back direction as the center for the folding and which is provided close to the left side with respect to the left side narrowing edge, and the right front side portion and the right back side portion are folded inward with a first right side holding line which is extending in the front-back direction and which is provided close to the right side with respect to the left side narrowing edge.

Patterned fibrous substrates having a plurality of individual fibers, a first region, and a second region are provided. The patterned fibrous substrates have a plurality of individual fibers of the first region having a first diameter and a plurality of individual fibers of the second region have a second diameter, wherein the first diameter is less than the second diameter. The individual fibers of the first region and the individual fibers of the second region are substantially free of bonds, other than primary bonds. The first region has a first C.I.E. L* score, and the second region has a second C.I.E. L* score, according to the Color Test Method. The first C.I.E. L* score is different than the second C.I.E. L* score.

An absorbent article has a liquid pervious topsheet, a liquid impervious backsheet, an absorbent core disposed between the topsheet and backsheet; first and second opposing longitudinal side edges, a front waist region and a back waist region; and a first and second back ear extending outwardly from the first and longitudinal side edges in the back waist region, respectively. The first and second back ears have an engineering strain greater than about 8% at about or below 2N of force when measured according to the Back Ear Extension Test, and a roughness Ra lower than about 300 μm when measured according to the Roughness Test.

The present disclosure relates to an environmentally friendly sanitary napkin including: a permeable inner sheet configured to come into contact with a skin and allow secretions to pass therethrough; an impermeable waterproof outer sheet having the same size and shape as those of the inner sheet and bonded to the inner sheet by fusion; an absorbent pad fixedly inserted between the inner sheet and the waterproof outer sheet and configured to absorb secretions such as menstrual blood that passes through the inner sheet; and an adhesive pad inserted into an appropriate position between the absorbent pad and the waterproof outer sheet, and provided on the absorbent pad and the lower surface of the waterproof outer sheet, and configured to fix the sanitary napkin by adhesion to the inside of underwear, wherein the inner sheet, the waterproof outer sheet, the absorbent pad and the adhesive pad are degradable in water or are biodegradable.

The environmentally friendly sanitary napkin of the present disclosure is degradable by a large amount of water in a septic tank when flushed down a toilet bowl after use, and is biodegradable in soil, thus preventing environmental pollution problems.

In addition, the environmentally friendly sanitary napkin may exhibit antimicrobial effects against harmful bacteria in the vagina and exhibit an excellent effect on sanitariness by suppressing the generation of odor caused by secretions.

A disposable absorbent article may include a topsheet, a backsheet, an absorbent core disposed between the topsheet and the backsheet, and a leg gasketing system. The leg gasketing system may include an inner cuff and an outer cuff. The inner cuff may include an inner cuff folded edge and an inner cuff material edge and the outer cuff may include an outer cuff folded edge and an outer cuff material edge such that the web of material is folded laterally inward to form the outer cuff folded edge and folded laterally outward to form the inner cuff folded edge.

In an absorbent product, an absorbent core includes an upper absorber including a super absorbent material fixedly attached between upper and lower absorber sheets. The upper absorber includes material existence regions that are arranged in the width direction and to which the super absorbent material is fixedly attached, and a material non-existence region in which the super absorbent material does not exist is arranged between each pair of adjacent material existence regions. In each material non-existence region, the upper and lower absorber sheets are entirely joined together. In at least one material non-existence region, the top sheet and the upper absorber sheet are partly joined together. The load applied when the nonwoven fabric of the top sheet is stretched 3% in the width direction is twice or more of the load applied when the nonwoven fabric of the upper absorber sheet is stretched 3% in the width direction.

An absorbent core for use in an absorbent article including a high loft central layer having deposited on two different surfaces thereon a first superabsorbent polymer SAP1 and a second superabsorbent polymer SAP2 in the form of particles that are at least partially distributed within the high loft layer. The SAP1 has a higher capacity than SAP2 and the permeability of SAP2 is more than 5×10-7 cm3.Math.s/g.

Patterned fibrous substrates having a plurality of individual fibers, a first region, and a second region are provided. The first region is visually discernable from the second region. The first region has a first region fluid permeability score (PS1), and the second region has a second region fluid permeability score (PS2). The first region fluid permeability score (PS1) is different than the second region fluid permeability score (PS2). The first region fluid permeability score (PS1) and the second region fluid permeability score (PS2) are both greater than 5 Darcy.
