Layer materials treated with surfacant-modified chelating agents

摘要

A thermoplastic layer material has at least one odor-reducing surface which is wettable to aqueous liquids and capable of controlling a wide variety of malodors. The thermoplastic layer material is treated with a surfactant-modified chelating agent prepared by mixing or chemically reacting an odor-control chelating agent with a surfactant-producing compound. The layer material thus treated can be used in a wide variety of personal care and medical absorbent products, as well as other applications.
