Absorbent structure and absorbent article containing said absorbent structure

Abstract

The present invention relates to an absorbent structure and an absorbent article containing said absorbent structure. The absorbent structure, having a sequence of layers connected together, comprises a first outer absorbent layer made from airlaid material, a second outer absorbent layer made from airlaid material, and a fluid storage layer made from airlaid material arranged between the first and second outer absorbent layers, wherein the airlaid material of the first outer absorbent layer comprises first cellulose fibres, the airlaid material of the second outer absorbent layer comprises second cellulose fibres and the airlaid material of the fluid storage layer comprises third cellulose fibres and super-absorbent components, wherein the first and second cellulose fibres have a lower pH value than the third cellulose fibres and the pH value of the first and second cellulose fibres is less than 5.0.
