A method for producing an absorbent structure in an absorbent article, such as a wound dressing and like article, which is produced by using absorption material in reel form directly in the product, without first defibering the absorbent material, and thereafter forming a mat. The material has good wicking and swelling properties which are well adapted to the function of the product; a high degree of surface dryness is obtained among other things. In addition to cellulose fibres, the absorbent structure may also include superabsorbent material and/or binding fibres among other things. The pulp mat is very thin, therewith obviating the need to further compress the product. With regard to certain product applications, the material is softened mechanically prior to its use as absorption material. |
