<p>The invention relates to an infant or adult diaper (10) comprising a topsheet (22), a backsheet (24), and an absorbent core (20) therebetween; and a first and a second longitudinally extending elastic cuff (30a, 30b), the first and the second elastic cuff (30a, 30b) being positioned on either longitudinal side of the topsheet (22) and opposing each other. The diaper (10) has a crotch region (B), between a front region (A) and a back region (C), and the first and second elastic cuff (30a, 30b) each have a crotch region (Β'), between a front region (Α') and a back region (C), these regions (Α',Β', C) being generally positioned in or adjacent to the respective regions (A, B, C) of the diaper (10). The first and the second elastic cuff (30a, 30b) each have a proximal edge (32), attached to the diaper, and a distal edge (34), at least the crotch region (Β') of which is not attached to the diaper (10) and forms a free flap (38a, 38b). The diaper (10) comprises a cuff connector (70) being attached to both the first and the second elastic cuff (30b), the cuff connector (70) extending in a generally transverse direction and being able to extert a force between the first and the second elastic cuff (30a, 30b). The cuff connector (10) comprises a cuff connector material, which:•- has a transverse strain of about 0.8 at a first cycle extension force of about 1.0 N or less, as measured according to the in-use two-cycle hysteresis test; and•- has about 30% set or less after having been extended to a transverse strain of about 0.8, as measured according to the in-use two-cycle hysteresis test; and•- is elastically extensible in the transverse direction to a strain of at least about 0.8, as measured according to the in-process two-cycle hysteresis test at 22°C</p> |
