The present invention aims to provide nonwoven fabric for sanitary materials having high water absorbability and high diffusing capacity for liquids such as water and chemicals as well as high bulkiness, flexibility, and anti-see-through property, and also provides sanitary material products produced therefrom including a water absorbing sheet for sanitary napkins. The nonwoven fabric for sanitary materials may comprise nonwoven fabric of polyester based fiber with a flattened multilobar cross section containing 6 or more convex portions along the cross-sectional circumference, the polyester based fiber with a flattened multilobar cross section having a flatness of 2.0 to 3.0, a degree of irregularity of 1.0 to 5.0, and a convex ratio of 0.6 to 0.9, and the polyester based fiber with a flattened multilobar cross section being joined by heat-weldable fiber.

An absorbent member is intended for insertion in diapers to boost the absorptive capacity. The construction increases the flow of fluid to the diaper, yet in preferred embodiments, blocks the reflow of fluid pressed of the diaper from reaching the wearer to reduce the propensity to cause or aggravate diaper rash.

An absorbent article having a longitudinal axis and a transverse axis is provided. The article has a topsheet and backsheet, together forming a chassis that is symmetrical about the transverse axis. An absorbent core is disposed between the topsheet and the backsheet, with a perimeter of the chassis extending beyond the surface area of the core. The absorbent core is asymmetrical about the transverse axis. In one embodiment, less than 50% of the surface area of the absorbent article is mechanically compressed. In another embodiment, the absorbent article has an in-use flexibility of less than 170 mN, preferably less than 130 mN. In a further embodiment, the absorbent article has a stiffness measured in the core free area of less than 0.4 g*cm.

A disposable sanitary pad to removably attach with an undergarment of a user for absorbing the body fluids and cleansing proposes includes a central pad portion having a number absorbent layers and a fluid pervious layer attached to a fluid impervious flexible base using an attachment means. An exterior surface of the fluid impervious flexible base is provided with adhesive strips at a top, bottom, and center portion and at corners to allow the users to attach the disposable sanitary pad by longitudinally covering the crotch area of the undergarment. A pair of flexible wings having adhesives is attached to side portions of the fluid impervious flexible base to maintain a laterally stretched position of the disposable sanitary pad covering the crotch area of the undergarment. A pouch having deodorized wet wipes is removably attached to the central pad portion for handling and disposal of the disposable sanitary pad with hygienic after use.

A nonwoven material includes a plurality of fibers forming a nonwoven fibrous with a perforated zone having a plurality of apertures. A width of the perforated zone is defined between side portions of the perforated zone, and the width of the perforated zone tapers at a first end portion of the perforated zone.
