Method for making fluid distribution materials

摘要

The present invention relates to a method of and an apparatus for providing fluid distribution materials with improved wicking properties in a preferential fluid distribution direction, and which exhibit for vertical wicking both good wicking height and wicking flux. Such materials are realised by starting from prior art materials, and submitting these to a special post formation mechanical treatment, Such fluid distribution materials are particularly useful in absorbent core structures such as used in disposable absorbent articles like baby diapers, incontinence products or catamenial products.
