摘要:
A process is disclosed for topically applying additive compositions to planar substrates, such as tissue webs. In one embodiment, the process is designed to apply relatively high viscous compositions to base sheets at high speeds in a manner that prevents the additive composition from penetrating into the sheet. The additive composition having the relatively high viscosity can be applied to the base sheet in one embodiment using an offset gravure printing process. The applicator roll includes a pattern of raised elements. The raised elements define a surface having at least one dimension that is less than 500 microns. The raised elements are also spaced closely together in order to prevent fiber buildup on the roll during relatively fast processing speeds.

The present invention relates to a personal care absorbent article comprising at least two substrates each having an internal and external surface, wherein at least one substrate is a fluid permeable bodyside substrate selected from spunbond, meltblown, coform, airlaid, bonded-carded web, spunlace materials and combinations thereof; at least one substrate is an impermeable backsheet; and an absorbent core disposed in between said substrates; wherein at least the external surface of at least one substrate has applied to it a benefit agent selected from an additive composition wherein said additive composition is a polymer dispersion selected from polyolefin dispersions, polyisoprene dispersions, polybutadiene-styrene block copolymer dispersions, latex dispersions, polyvinyl pyrrolidone-styrene copolymer dispersions, polyvinyl alcohol-ethylene copolymer dispersions, and combinations thereof; an enhancement component selected from microparticles, expandable microspheres, fibers, additional polymer dispersions, scents, anti-bacterials, moisturizers, medicaments, soothers and combinations thereof; and combinations thereof.
摘要:
An airlaid substrate may have a positive increase in thickness through the addition of thermally expandable microspheres into the substrate. In one application, the substrate may be converted to sheets used as wet or dry wipes.
摘要:
The present invention relates to a surface of a substrate, or the substrate itself, exhibiting superhydrophobic characteristics when treated with a formulation comprising a hydrophobic component, nano-structured particles and water. The superhydrophobicity can be applied either over the entire surface, patterned throughout or on the substrate material, and/or directly penetrated through the z-directional thickness of the substrate material.
摘要:
Sheet-like products, such as tissue products made from a low-density web, are disclosed containing an additive composition. The additive composition, for instance, comprises an aqueous dispersion containing an alpha-olefin polymer, and an ethylene-carboxylic acid copolymer. The additive composition may be applied to the surface of the web so that it does not thoroughly or even substantially penetrate the web. For instance, the additive may be applied to one or both surfaces of the web by gravure printing, press coating, spraying or the like. The additive composition may improve the strength of the tissue web and/or improve the perceived softness of the web.
摘要:
Substrates such as tissue and nonwovens have an additive composition applied topically thereto. The additive composition, for instance, comprises a frothed aqueous dispersion or solution which is topically applied to the web through a creping process after the web has been formed. The additive composition may be applied in-line to the web as a creping adhesive during a creping operation. In the alternative, the additive composition may be added in an off-line converting process that crepes a dry pre-formed substrate material. The additive composition may improve bulk and softness of the tissue.

The present invention provides a soft, bulky, and absorbent hydroentangled nonwoven including regenerated cellulose fibers and staple or wood pulp fibers and a method of making the same that includes the steps of a) placing regenerated cellulose fibers on a forming surface; b) depositing staple or wood pulp fibers on the regenerated cellulose fibers; c) hydroentangling the regenerated cellulose fibers and the staple or wood pulp fibers together to form a hydroentangled composite; d) drying the hydroentangled composite; then, e) creping the hydroentangled composite with a frothed creping solution or dispersion.

摘要:
A hybrid absorbent foam includes an integrated hybrid foam layer having an open surface, a closed surface, and a foam body extending between the open and closed surfaces. The integrated hybrid foam layer has an open-cell content of at least 50%, while the closed surface provides a barrier to aqueous liquids. The integrated hybrid foam layer is formed as a single layer, and has a substantially uniform polymer composition throughout its thickness. The integrated hybrid foam layer combines the functions of liquid absorbency, retention, and barrier into a single layer, and is useful in a wide variety of absorbent articles.
