Abstract:
A process of making an absorbent article comprising the steps of providing a liquid permeable topsheet web extending substantially continuously in a machine direction, the topsheet web having a first and second surface, a liquid impermeable backsheet web extending substantially continuously in the machine direction and an acquisition layer having a first and second surface The process comprises the step of aligning the topsheet web and the acquisition layer in a face to face relationship such that the second surface of the topsheet in in contact with the first surface of the acquisition layer. The process comprises the step of simultaneously mechanically deforming and combining the topsheet web together with the acquisition layer. The topsheet web and acquisition layer are nested together such that a majority of the three-dimensional protrusions formed in the topsheet web coincide with and fit together with a majority of the three-dimensional protrusions formed in the acquisition layer to provide a topsheet/acquisition layer laminate web having three-dimensional protrusions.
Abstract:
An absorbent article comprises a liquid permeable three-dimensional material, a liquid impermeable backsheet, and an absorbent core positioned at least partially intermediate the liquid impermeable backsheet and the three-dimensional material. The absorbent core comprises an absorbent material having one or more channels defined therein. The absorbent article may comprise other layers positioned at least partially intermediate the absorbent core and the liquid permeable three-dimensional material that also may comprise one or more channels. Any of the layers of the absorbent article may comprise indicia and/or color.

Abstract:
An absorbent article for personal hygiene comprises a longitudinal axis, a transversal axis perpendicular to the longitudinal axis, a liquid permeable topsheet, a liquid impermeable backsheet and an absorbent core. The absorbent core is located between the topsheet and the backsheet. The absorbent core comprises an absorbent material. The absorbent material comprises at least 80% of superabsorbent polymers, up to substantially 100% of superabsorbent polymers, by total weight of the absorbent material. The absorbent article further comprises an acquisition layer. A width of the acquisition layer in a direction parallel to the transversal axis is less than a width of the topsheet in a direction parallel to the transversal axis. The absorbent article further comprises a topsheet/acquisition layer laminate comprising the liquid permeable topsheet and the acquisition layer in a face to face relationship. The topsheet/acquisition layer laminate comprises three-dimensional protrusions extending from a plane of the topsheet/acquisition layer laminate. The three-dimensional protrusions are formed from the fibers of the topsheet and the acquisition layer.
