摘要 |
This invention provides an absorbent article configured for controlled deformation when worn by a user. The absorbent article includes a cover positionable adjacent the user, a barrier layer coupled to the cover and an absorbent layer interposed between the cover and the barrier layer. The absorbent layer of the present invention further defines at least two elongated gaps extending in a longitudinal direction, the gaps being laterally spaced on opposed sides of a centerline of the absorbent article, where each of the gaps defines a deformation zone to facilitate controlled deformation.
