ABSORBENT ARTICLE INCLUDING UNDERGARMENT FASTENER ADHESIVE HAVING IMPROVED ADHESIVE PATTERN.

摘要

An absorbent article comprises an absorbent core and a backsheet associated with the absorbent core. The backsheet has a garment facing side and a first end edge in the first end region. The absorbent article further comprises adhesive attachment means disposed on the garment facing side of the backsheet for securing the absorbent article to an undergarment. The adhesive attachment means has an adhesive pattern which includes (a) a central adhesive section disposed on or along the longitudinal center line. The central adhesive section has a first end in the first end region. The adhesive pattern further includes (b) a pair of side adhesive sections each disposed transversely outboard of the central adhesive section, respectively. Each of the side adhesive section has a first end in the first end region. The first ends of each side adhesive section extends substantially to the first end edge of the backsheet. The first end of the central adhesive section is at least about 5 mm away from the first end edge of the backsheet such that an adhesive free area is formed between the first end of the central adhesive section and the first end edge of the backsheet.
