A BODYSIDE COVER FOR AN ABSORBENT ARTICLE

摘要

A bodyside cover (12) for an absorbent article (10) includes two different materials (26, 30) to provide good functionality. The bicomponent cover (12) includes an apertured first material (26), which is positioned along the longitudinal central axis (x-x) of the absorbent article (10), and a nonperforated second material (30) secured (34) to at least a portion of the first material. The first material (26) has a rewet value which is less than, or equal to, the rewet value of the second material while the second material (30) is softer than the first material. The first material (26) is positioned below the principal point of fluid discharge and represents the primary fluid-receiving region of the cover. The second material (30) is situated away from the principal point of fluid discharge and represents the secondary fluid-receiving region of the cover (12).
