IMPROVED BARRIER PERFORMANCE OF ABSORBENT ARTICLE COMPONENTS

摘要

The present invention is directed to absorbent articles comprised of one or more components exhibiting an improved barrier to basis weight performance. The improved barrier performance of the aforementioned absorbent article components is a result of supplying a strong and durable nonwoven substrate layer followed by deposition of a nano-denier, essentially continuously filament barrier layer onto the nonwoven substrate layer thereby providing absorbent articles that exhibit enhanced barrier performance in comparison to conventional absorbent articles.
