SANITARY NAPKING WITH COMPOSITE COVER

摘要

A cover (14) for a sanitary napkin or other absorbent product is provided which includes an outer layer of a hydrophobic material (30). The outer layer (30) contains fluid passageways which are small enough so that the outer layer alone will not pass liquid therethrough. A second, liner layer (32) is bonded to the interior surface of the outer layer (30) and is comprised of a nonwoven web which is at least slightly wettable so as to draw liquids through the passageways of the outer layer. The liner layer (32) contains large capillaries so that at least a majority of the liquid entering the liner layer from the fluid passageways will pass through the liner to the absorbent core (11) of the product.
