Abstract
Disclosed is an absorbent article including a sheet which is composed of: a resin layer having a plurality of apertures and forming a liquid-receiving face of the sheet; and a fibrous layer underlying the resin layer. The fibrous layer contains hydrophobic fibers and hydrophilic fibers shorter than the hydrophobic fibers. At least a part of the hydrophilic fibers form aggregates that disperse in the fibrous layer, and at least a part of the aggregates are bonded to the surfaces of the hydrophobic fibers.
Claims9
An absorbent article comprising a topsheet, a backsheet and an absorbent core positioned between the topsheet and the backsheet, wherein
- the topsheet includes:
- a resin layer having a plurality of apertures and forming a liquid-receiving face of the topsheet;
- and a fibrous layer underlying the resin layer, and
- the fibrous layer contains hydrophobic synthetic fibers and hydrophilic fibers shorter than the hydrophobic fibers, and at least a part of the hydrophilic fibers are formed into aggregates, wherein the aggregates are separate from each other and are uniformly dispersed in the fibrous layer, and are bonded to surfaces of the hydrophobic fibers.
An absorbent article comprising a topsheet, a backsheet and an absorbent core positioned between the topsheet and the backsheet, and having leakage-preventing side walls on a liquid-receiving side of the article, the leakage-preventing side walls extending in a longitudinal direction of the article and lying opposite one another in a width direction of the article, wherein
- the leakage-preventing side wall includes:
- a resin layer having a plurality of apertures and forming a liquid-receiving face of the side wall;
- and a fibrous layer underlying the resin layer, and
- the fibrous layer contains hydrophobic synthetic fibers and hydrophilic fibers shorter than the hydrophobic fibers, and at least a part of the hydrophilic fibers are formed into aggregates, wherein the aggregates are separate from each other and are uniformly dispersed in the fibrous layer, and are bonded to surfaces of the hydrophobic fibers.
