An absorbent barrier sheet (10) includes an integral fabric web (12) and a vinyl barrier material (14) intimately connected to and across the integral fabric web (12). The web (12) includes an upper portion (16) and a lower portion (18), with the upper portion including a plurality of hydrophobic first yarns (20) and the lower portion including a plurality of fluidretaining second yarns (22). In addition, the web (12) has a middle portion (24) which includes a set of ground yarns (26) and parts of the hydrophobic and fluid-retaining yarns (20, 22), with the ground yarns (26) integrating the hydrophobic and fluid-retaining yarns (20, 22) of the upper and lower portions (16, 18), thereby forming the integral fabric web (12). The vinyl barrier material (14) is intimately connected to and across the fluid-retaining lower portion (18) of the integral fabric web (12). In this fashion, fluid at the top of the absorbent barrier sheet (10) tends to wick downward towards the fluid-retaining portion (18), whereby the top of the sheet tends towards dry. And because the sheet (10) includes the vinyl barrier material (14), the bottom of the sheet (10) remains dry. |
