INTER-LABIUM PRODUCT AND SURFACE-SIDE SHEET CAPABLE OF DISINTEGRATION IN WATER FOR THE INTER-LABIUM PRODUCT

摘要

An inter-labium product capable of disintegration in water, fitted to the inter-labium part; and a surface-side sheet for inter-labium product that simultaneously realizes comfortability at wearing of the inter-labium product and capability of water disintegration such that the inter-labium product is disintegrated when thrown in flush water of water closet after use. The surface-side sheet for use in an inter-labium product fitted to the inter-labium part is comprised of hydrophilic fibers composed of single fibers and fibril fibers having fuzzes branched from the surface thereof, wherein at least some of the branched fuzzes link the single fibers and the fibril fibers to each other. Thus, not only can the wet tensile strength be increased but also inter-fibrous bonds are slowly decomposed in the presence of a large amount of water to thereby enable disposal of the inter-labium product in a flush toilet. Furthermore, since no resin is used, the inter-labium product is free from resin leaching to thereby avoid problems, such as itching and skin roughness, caused by the resin leaching.
