THIN, HIGH CAPACITY MULTI-LAYER ABSORBENT CORE

摘要

A thin, high capacity, multi-layer absorbent material. An upper layer displays intake properties while a lower layer displays distribution properties. The upper and lower layers are both high density combinations of fluff pulp and superabsorbent material, with the lower layer having a higher density than the upper layer. The upper layer is suitably drum-formed, the lower layer is suitably air-laid, and additional layers can be either inserted between the upper and lower layers or added on top of the upper layer. The absorbent material can be used to provide discreet absorbent protection in absorbent articles, such as diapers, training pants, feminine hygiene products, incontinence products, and swim wear.
