Abstract
An absorbent article includes a chassis comprising a topsheet, a backsheet, and an absorbent core disposed between the topsheet and backsheet. The absorbent core contains superabsorbent polymer material and about 10% or less by weight of cellulosic fibers. The backsheet comprises a film comprising a plurality of micropores. The film comprises odor absorbing material disposed in one or more of the micropores.
Claims19
An absorbent article comprising:
- a chassis comprising a topsheet, a backsheet, an absorbent core disposed between the topsheet and the backsheet, and one or more adhesive materials forming an aggregate adhesive content;
- wherein the absorbent core comprises an absorbent particulate polymer material and about 10% or less, by weight of the absorbent core, of cellulosic fibers;
- wherein the backsheet comprises a monolayer film comprising a plurality of micropores, wherein the film comprises zeolites disposed in one or more of the micropores, wherein the zeolites disposed in the one or more of the micropores is at least partially incorporated into the film, and wherein the zeolites form an aggregate odor absorbing content;
- and
- wherein a ratio of the aggregate odor absorbing content to the aggregate adhesive content is from about 0.5% to about 10%.
An absorbent article comprising:
- a chassis comprising a topsheet, a backsheet comprising a film comprising a plurality of micropores, and an absorbent core disposed between the topsheet and the backsheet;
- one or more adhesives forming an aggregate adhesive content;
- and
- an odor absorbing material disposed in at least one of the micropores of the backsheet, wherein the odor absorbing material is at least partially integral with the backsheet, and wherein the odor absorbing material forms an aggregate odor absorbing content;
- wherein a ratio of the aggregate odor absorbing content to the aggregate adhesive content is from about 0.5% to about 10%.
An absorbent article for wearing about the lower torso of a wearer, the absorbent article comprising:
- a first waist region, a second waist region, a crotch region disposed between the first and second waist regions;
- a chassis comprising a topsheet, a backsheet comprising a plurality of micropores, and an absorbent core disposed between the topsheet and the backsheet;
- a first elasticized waist feature joined to the chassis and disposed in the first waist region;
- a second elasticized waist feature joined to the chassis disposed in the second waist region;
- and
- one or more adhesive materials forming an aggregate adhesive content;
- wherein the backsheet comprises an odor absorbing material comprising zeolites, wherein the odor absorbing material is disposed in at least one of the plurality of micropores of the backsheet, wherein the odor absorbing material is at least partially integrated into the backsheet, and wherein the odor absorbing material forms an aggregate odor absorbing content;
- and
- wherein a ratio of the aggregate odor absorbing content to the aggregate adhesive content is from about 0.5% to about 10%.
