Articles comprising impregnated thermoplastic members and method of manufacturing the articles |
摘要 |
An article, including disposable articles and durable articles, includes one or more shaped thermoplastic members, which can be at least partially impregnated into one or more fibrous substrates forming a composite material of the article having regions of breathability, elasticity, and/or stiffening to provide desired functions of the article. The shaped thermoplastic members have a profiled thickness and/or basis weight providing variation in material properties. A percent variation of the profiled thickness of the thermoplastic member can vary from about 5% to about 95%. A process for manufacturing the composite material of the present invention is also disclosed. |

1. A method of making a composite material comprising at least one shaped thermoplastic member impregnated into at least one fibrous substrate, the method comprising the steps of:
providing a first fibrous substrate; depositing a first thermoplastic material on the first fibrous substrate using a rotogravure printing device to form a first shaped thermoplastic member having a profiled thickness providing variation in material properties, wherein a percent variation of the profiled thickness of the thermoplastic member can vary from about 5% to about 95%; providing a second substrate; depositing a second thermoplastic material on the second fibrous substrate to form a second shaped thermoplastic member; combining the first substrate and the second substrate to form the composite material, wherein the first thermoplastic member is at least partially impregnated into the first substrate; and impregnating the first and second shaped thermoplastic member into the first and second substrates by advancing the composite material through a pair of nip rolls. |
