摘要:
The present invention relates to an open-celled foam comprising: (a) an aqueous-based polymer dispersion, said polymer dispersion comprising a polyethylene copolymer and an ethylene-acrylic acid copolymer; and (b) from about 5% to about 15% of a foaming composition, said foaming composition comprising at least a foaming agent and a stabilizing agent; further comprising a particulate superabsorbent polymer material within the voids and pores of said open-celled foam and the method of making the same.

Fibrous articles are disclosed containing an additive composition. The additive composition, for instance, may include a water-soluble film forming component and water-soluble modifying components that is deposited at least at the surface of a fibrous web. In some aspects, the additive composition includes polymers that demonstrate a certain LCST and melting temperature. In another aspect, the additive composition is applied to the fibrous web during the heated drying phase, such as with a Yankee dryer. The fibrous web with additive composition is then creped. The additive composition may improve the perceived softness of the web without substantially affecting the absorbency of the web in an adverse manner.

Superabsorbent polymer materials are provided including absorbent polymers having a fast vortex time, desirably about 10 seconds or less, and a stiffness index of at least about 0.7, as determined by test procedures described herein. The absorbent polymers can be modified to obtain a faster vortex time by a method including providing an absorbent polymer having a first vortex time, absorbing water with the absorbent polymer, freeze-drying the swollen absorbent polymer to remove at least a portion of the absorbed water, and obtaining a modified absorbent polymer having a second vortex time. The ratio of the first vortex time to the second vortex time is at least about 5, and desirably the modified absorbent polymer has a stiffness index of at least about 0.7.

Disclosed are absorbent composites, useful in an absorbent article, having high liquid intake rates. The absorbent composites may also have a rapid liquid lock-up. Absorbent composites of this invention have an intake rate of at least about 1.9 cc liquid/second at an 80% absorbent composite saturation level and a liquid lock-up fraction of at least about 0.70 at 50% superabsorbent material saturation. The absorbent composites of this invention can be a freeze-dried composite, an airformed absorbent composite, or other fibrous or non-fibrous absorbent composites.
摘要:
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:
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:
A method of estimating a concentration of DNA molecules in a biological sample includes storing a number of a plurality of reaction sites in a memory and distributing the biological sample among the plurality of reaction sites. The method also includes determining a number of the plurality of reaction sites characterized by a presence of one or more of the DNA molecules and computing a portion of the plurality of reaction sites characterized by the presence of the one or more of the DNA molecules. The method further includes estimating the concentration of the DNA molecules as a function of the portion of the plurality of reaction sites and computing a confidence interval for the estimated concentration of DNA molecules.
摘要:
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.
