<p>A method of producing an absorbent structure that includes hydrophilic fibres and particles of superabsorbent material, comprising forming an air-laid structure from fibres and superabsorbent particles. At least a part of the air-laid structure is moistened to a moisture content in the moistened region of at least 15 % calculated on the total weight of the structure within the moistened region, whereafter the structure is dried to a moisture content of at most 12 %. The moisture treatment improves the tensile strength of the absorbent structure. Liquid dispersion in the structure is also improved.</p> |
