Abstract
An absorbent article such as a diaper, a training pant, an adult incontinence article, a bed mate, or the like is capable of rapidly transporting urine away from its acquisition zone. In particular the absorbent article stores a fraction of the acquired liquid outside of its acquisition region which fraction remains relatively unchanged between 20 percent and 100 percent load of the article. A process for handling urine in the absorbent article comprises a step of transporting a relatively constant fraction of the acquired liquid away from the acquisition zone of the article.
