Abstract:
An absorbent article capable of giving a sense of security to a user is provided. The absorbent article includes a nonwoven fabric. The nonwoven fabric includes organic cotton fibers and thermoplastic synthetic fibers. The organic cotton fibers form a plurality of fiber lumps in the nonwoven fabric. The surface of the organic cotton fibers is not coated with a petroleum-derived oil agent.
Abstract:
A generally thin, flexible sanitary napkin capable of handling medium to high menstrual flows which has a central absorbent hump is disclosed. The hump comprises a longitudinally-oriented elongated medial absorbent hump that projects from the body surface of the sanitary napkin. The sanitary napkin preferably has surrounding absorbent regions outboard of the hump with a caliper of less than or equal to about 5 millimeters. The sanitary napkin preferably has a caliper at the point of maximum amplitude of the hump that is greater than twice the caliper of the surrounding regions. The hump preferably has a caliper of at least about 0.15 inch (about 3.5-4 millimeters). The longitudinal central region of the sanitary napkin preferably has a flexure-resistance that is greater than that of the surrounding regions.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to absorbent articles such as sanitary napkins worn by women. More particularly, the present invention relates to absorbent articles, such as thin sanitary napkins, that are stretchable, especially in the longitudinal direction.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to absorbent articles such as sanitary napkins, panty liners, and incontinence pads. More particularly, the present invention relates to absorbent articles, such as sanitary napkins, that have longitudinal side edge components that naturally wrap the sides of a wearer's panties which provide an alternative to conventional side flaps.
Abstract:
An absorbent article is disclosed which contains an absorbent positioned between a fluid permeable cover and a fluid-impermeable baffle. The baffle can be either a nonwoven web or have a nonwoven web secured to it. The nonwoven web hs a high coefficient of friction so as to hold the absorbent article stationary relative to an adjacent undergarment and thereby retain the absorbent article in a comfortable position relative to the body of the user. The nonwoven web is a dry, soft, non-tacky, fibrous material which can have an elastomeric component. The nonwoven web can partially or totally cover the exterior surface of the absorbent article which is away from the body of the user.
Abstract:
Leakage resistant waste barriers for use on absorbent articles are prepared by coating a portion of a nonwoven sheet with a water insoluble or water impermeable hot melt adhesive composition.

Abstract:
A sanitary napkin having a gas permeable nonwoven baffle is provided in which a composite baffle is formed by joining webs of a meltblown polyolefin and a spunbonded polyolefin with the spunbonded polyolefin web providing a surface for garment attachment adhesive reception.
Abstract:
A non-occlusive, non-adherent dressing for wounds, the dressing comprising an imperforate (i.e. continuous) flexible film for contacting the wound, and an absorbent pad backing the wound-contacting film and extending beyond a substantial portion of the periphery of the film, the dressing having vapor transport cavity approximating that of intact human skin. The absorbent pad removes wound exudate from the proximate area of the wound without the pad coming into contact with the open wound itself. The final construction, comprising the film and absorbent backing, permits a measurable amount of moisture vapor to be transmitted (greater than 0.06 mg/cm.sup.2 /hr), thereby greatly reducing the degree of maceration and other problems that may be produced by a fully occlusive dressing.

Abstract:
Absorption products such as compresses, sanitary napkins, diapers or the like which comprise an absorption body furnished with a covering and an at least substantially moisture-impermeable layer which is provided between said body and said covering on the side of the body facing away from the user. The at least substantially moisture-impervious layer comprises short hydrophobic fibers loosely applied and essentially unbound to one another.
