摘要:
Absorbent article such as disposable diapers, incontinent briefs, diaper holders and the like, that have a unique elastic waist feature that improves the dynamic fit of the elasticized waistband as well as the containment characteristics of the absorbent article. The elastic waist feature preferably comprises an interconnecting panel zone, a first flexural hinge zone joining the interconnecting panel zone with the containment assembly, an elasticized waistband, and a second flexural hinge zone joining the elasticized waistband with the interconnecting panel zone. The elasticized waistband comprises a shaping panel zone; a waistline panel zone; and a predisposed, resilient, waistband flexural hinge zone joining the shaping panel zone and the waistline panel zone. The waistband flexural hinge zone is predisposed to allow the panel zones to flexurally bend about a defined axis or zone and is resilient to provide a restoring force/moment that returns the panel zones to their preceeding in-use configuration, especially when the elasticized waistband has been pretensioned by a closure system. The closure system dynamically creates/maintains lateral tension through the elasticized waistband thereby allowing the elasticized waistband to more dynamically expand and contract with the motions of the wearer. The absorbent article additionally preferably comprises a pair of elasticized side panels disposed in the second waist region. The elasticized side panels preferably comprise a "zero strain" stretch laminate and an extension panel. The present invention also relates to alternative waist features comprising "an expansive tummy panel" elasticized waistband.
摘要:
A binder is applied to particles which are then combined with fibers to bind the particles to the fibers. The particles have functional sites for forming a hydrogen bond or a coordinate covalent bond. The fibers have hydrogen bonding functional sites. The binder comprises binder molecules. The binder molecules have at least one functional group that is capable of forming a hydrogen bond or a coordinate covalent bond with the particles, and at least one functional group that is capable of forming a hydrogen bond with the fibers. Particularly suitable binders include glycerin, a glycerin monoester, a glycerin diester, a polyglycerin oligomer, propylene glycol, a polypropylene glycol oligomer, urea, and combinations thereof. A substantial portion of the particles that are adhered to the fibers may be adhered in particulate form by hydrogen bonds or coordinate covalent bonds to the binder, and the binder may in turn be adhered to the fibers by hydrogen bonds. Fibers containing particles bound by this method are easily densified.
摘要:
Particles, such as superabsorbent particles, are bound to fibers, such as cellulosic fibers, by a binder that has a volatility less than water. The binder has a functional group capable of forming a hydrogen bond with the fibers, and a functional group that is capable of forming a hydrogen bond or a coordinate covalent bond with the particles. The binder is activated or reactivated by addition of heat, liquid, or mechanical energy. Therefore, fibers treated with binder may be shipped to a distribution point before particles are bound to the fibers. The binder may be a polymeric binder selected from the group consisting of polyethylene glycol, polypropylene glycol, poly (caprolactone) diol, polyacrylic acid, polyamides and polyamines. The polymeric binder has a hydrogen bonding functionality or coordinate covalent bond forming functionality on each repeating unit of the polymeric binder. Alternatively, the binder may be a non-polymeric organic binder that includes a functionality such as a carboxylic acid, an aldehyde, an alcohol, an amino acid, an amide, and an amine, wherein there are at least two such functionalities on the molecule. Particles attached to the fibers in this manner are firmly adhered and are not easily dislodged. Fibrous products produced by this method include fibers to which particles are bound, and fibers which have been treated with the binder but to which particles are not bound.

摘要:
Absorbent articles having a unique elastic feature improving the dynamic fit as well as containment characteristics. The elastic feature preferably comprises an elastomeric member and a segment of the backsheet; a portion of the backsheet segment coincides with at least a portion of the elastomeric member; this portion of the backsheet segment being mechanically prestrained. Mechanical prestraining of the backsheet segment improves not only the extension of the elastomeric member, but also the heat-shrink contraction of preferred elastomeric members.

摘要:
Provided are a water absorption treatment material with excellent water disintegrability and a method for manufacturing the water absorption treatment material. A water absorption treatment material is a water absorption treatment material that absorbs a liquid, and includes a granule. The granule contains a foaming agent. Upon the water absorption treatment material absorbing a liquid, gas bubbles are produced in the granule as a result of a reaction of the foaming agent, and the granule collapses.
摘要:
An absorbent core for absorbent articles such as diapers comprising a core wrap comprising a top side and a bottom side, an absorbent material between the top side and the bottom side of the core wrap, a first and second longitudinally-extending channel-forming areas disposed on opposite sides of the longitudinal axis and substantially free of absorbent material preferably through which the top side of the core wrap is preferably attached to the bottom side of the core wrap. The core has a central absorbent zone between the first and the second channel-forming areas and a first and second lateral absorbent zones disposed laterally outwardly. The basis weight of the absorbent material in the central absorbent zone is higher than the basis weight of the absorbent material in each of the lateral absorbent zones for at least a first transversal section (S1). This relation is inverted along a second transversal section (S2) of the core. The first and second sections have each a length in the longitudinal direction of at least 10 mm.
