The sprayable olefin-based hot melt adhesive and absorbent articles comprising the adhesive are disclosed. The sprayable olefin-based hot melt adhesive is particularly suitable for spraying at low application temperatures. The sprayable low application temperature hot melt adhesives have high green strength, excellent bond strength and aging performance. Moreover, the sprayable low application temperature hot melt adhesives allows for thin bond lines without bleed-through and burn-through risks for heat-sensitive substrates.

An enhanced, co-formed fibrous web structure is disclosed. The web structure may have a co-formed core layer sandwiched between two scrim layers. The core layer may be formed of a blend of cellulose pulp fibers and melt spun filaments. The scrim layers may be formed of melt spun filaments, and the filaments forming one or both scrim layers may have a number average diameter of 4.5 μm or less. Filaments of one or both of the scrim layers, and optionally the core layer, may also be meltblown filaments. Alternatively, the filaments forming the scrim layers may constitute from 1 to 13 percent of the weight of the structure. Alternatively, the scrim layers may have a combined basis weight of from 0.1 gsm to less than 3.0 gsm. A method for forming the structure, including direct formation of layers, is also disclosed.

A multi-layer film includes a first-seal layer and a second-seal layer. The multi-layer film may be used to form a package for consumer-care products.

Provided is a multilayer co-extruded film comprising at least two different elasticity layers with at least one first elasticity layer and at least one second elasticity layer having higher elasticity than the at least one first elasticity layer, wherein the first elasticity layer comprises a combination of an olefin-based elastomer and a crystalline olefin polymer, and wherein the residual strain after 100% elongation during 10 min at 23° C. of the multilayer co-extruded film is less than 15%.

The invention relates to a hot melt adhesive composition comprising a polymer component, the polymer component comprising at least one styrene-butadiene-styrene block copolymer P having a styrene content from 35 to 50% by weight; a styrene-butadiene diblock content from 50 to 80% by weight; and a viscosity of a 15% by weight toluene solution at 25° C. of 20 to 40 mPa.s, and at least one styrene block copolymer other than a styrene-butadiene-styrene block copolymer, wherein said styrene-butadiene-styrene block copolymer P is at a content from 10 to 40% by weight relative to the total weight of the polymer component. The invention also relates to the use of said composition as an adhesive for bonding two substrates, and to articles comprising at least one interior or exterior surface coated with said composition.

The invention relates to an installation and a method for selectively producing a single- or multi-ply nonwoven includes an inclined wire former configured to deposit a sheet of wet-laid fibre material on a first circulating belt, a further belt configured to receive the sheet of wet-laid fibre material from the first circulating belt, a roller card arranged downstream in the material transport direction and configured to introduce a roller card web into the installation, a hydroentanglement arranged downstream in the material transport direction and including at least one water beam configured to entangle, bond and/or structure a single sheet of fibres or a plurality of sheets of fibres, and a dryer arranged downstream in the material transport direction.

Textile backsheets including a nonwoven fabric and film, such as a vapor-permeable and liquid impermeable (VPLI) film or a non-permeable film, are provided, wherein the nonwoven fabric is directly or indirectly bonded to the film. Methods of making such textile backsheets and absorbent articles including the textile backsheets are also provided.

Disclosed is a new multi-layer nonwoven interlining and the production process thereof. The process allows a multi-layer nonwoven interlining to be obtained simultaneously with a single process on a single production line. The process includes a fiber opening step, a fiber feeding step, a carding step, a levelling step of the additional layer by the thermal treatment, and a point bonding step of the carded web and additional layer. As a result of the process, a structure is obtained where the carded web is point-bonded onto the additional layer.

A method for manufacturing a disposable absorbent pant includes forming an elasticized multilayer web and joining a third nonwoven web to it and optionally sandwiching leg and waist elastic members between one or more layers of the elasticized multilayer web and/or the third nonwoven web to form disposable absorbent pants.

A multi-layered product having an embossed interior layer is disclosed along with a method of making the product. The multi-layered product has a first layer with an interior surface, a second layer with an interior surface, and a third layer sandwiched between the first and second layers. The third layer has a first surface and a second surface and has a thickness therebetween. The third layer is embossed into a waffle pattern having a plurality of protrusions and a plurality of recesses. Each of the plurality of protrusions and recesses is adjacently aligned and horizontally offset from one another. The plurality of protrusions forms a horizontal plane, at the first surface, which is positioned above a horizontal plane formed by the plurality of recesses, at the first surface. The product also has an adhesive which secures the three layers together.
