<p>An article comprises a stretchable absorbent composite (30) that includes a quantityof superabsorbent particles (32) which are operatively contained within a matrixof elastomeric polymer fibers (34). In particular aspects, the composite articlecan include at least about 60 wt% of the superabsorbent particles and not morethan about 40 wt% of the elastomeric polymer fibers, based on a total weight ofthe composite. In other aspects, the composite article can provide a high stretchability.Additional aspects can provide a low shake-out. Particular configurationscan, for example, provide a stretchability value of at least about 30%. Additionalaspects can include a configuration that provides a shake-out value of not morethan about 2%. In other aspects, the invention can provide a shake-out value ofnot more than about 1.2%. In further aspects, the absorbent composite can includesuperabsorbent particles having a coating of treatment-material that is thermallyprocessible. Additional aspects ca n include a treatment-material which iswater soluble.</p> |
