DISPERSIBLE ABSORBENT PRODUCTS AND METHODS OF MANUFACTURE AND USE

摘要

Provided are highly dispersible absorbent products, comprising an absorbent structure and preferably a water soluble barrier layer, wherein the absorbent products have a high rate of dispersibility, can exhibit low residual by-product in urinals upon flushing, resist strikethrough of absorbed fluid onto the hand of the user, and can absorb a sufficient amount of fluid without becoming overloaded or leaking. In one embodiment, provided is a ring rolled cellulosic sheet having a water soluble polymeric film laminated thereto. Also provided is a method of making such dispersible absorbent products comprising mechanically weakening an absorbent structure. Also provided are packaged products comprising a package and a plurality of dispersible absorbent products or articles. Also provided is a method for absorbing residual urine that can be both discreet and convenient, comprising absorbing residual urine subsequent to urination with a dispersible absorbent product of the present invention and depositing product in a toilet or preferably a urinal.
