Claims20
An absorbent article comprising an odour control material, said odour control material comprising at least one inclusion complex of cyclodextrin with an organic compound which is dispersed in a matrix having an HLB between about 6 to about 8.
An absorbent article comprising:
- a) a liquid permeable topsheet, a backsheet, and an absorbent element comprised between the topsheet and the backsheet, each of the topsheet, backsheet and absorbent element having a body facing side and a garment facing side;
- and
- b) an odour control material, said odour control material comprising at least one inclusion complex of cyclodextrin with an organic compound which is dispersed in a matrix having a HLB between about 6 to about 8;and
- wherein the complexed cyclodextrin has less than 20% moisture by weight of the complexed cyclodextrin particles prior to their inclusion into the matrix.
An absorbent article comprising:
- a) a liquid permeable topsheet, a backsheet, and an absorbent element comprised between the topsheet and the backsheet, each of the topsheet, backsheet and absorbent element having a body facing side and a garment facing side;
- and
- b) an odour control material, said odour control material comprising at least one inclusion complex of cyclodextrin with an organic compound which is dispersed in a matrix having a HLB between about 6 to about 8;
- wherein the complexed cyclodextrin are solid particles in a matrix comprising a carrier selected from the group consisting of fatty ethoxylates, fatty propoxylates, polysorbates, glycerol esters, block polymers and copolymers, sucrose esters, and combinations thereof;
- wherein the complexed cyclodextrin has less than 20% moisture by weight of the complexed cyclodextrin particles prior to their inclusion into the carrier;
- and
- wherein the odour control material releases an organic compound upon being wetted.
