Definitions
- the present invention refers to an absorbent article such as a diaper, pant diaper, incontinence guard, sanitary napkin, wound deressing or the like of the kind comprising a liquid permeable topsheet, a liquid impervious backsheet and an absorbent body arranged therebetween.
- Absorbent articles of the above mentioned kind are intended to absorb body liquids such as urine and blood. They usually comprise a liquid pervious topsheet, intended to be facing the wearer during use, in the form of a nonwoven material for example a spunbond material. It is also known to incorporate a liquid acquisition layer between the topsheet and the absorbent body, said liquid acquisition layer having the ability to quickly receive large amounts of liquid, to distribute it and temporarily store it before it is absorbed by the underlying absorbent body.
- a porous relatively thick acquisition layer for example in the form of a fibrous wadding, a carded fibrous web or other type of fibrous material has a high momen- taneous liquid receiving capacity and can temporarily store liquid before it is absorbed by the absorbent body. The same applies for porous foam materials. The liquid is then drained successivley to the underlying absorbent body, after which the acquisition layer again has capacity to receive liquid from a repeated wetting.
- absorbent articles comprising such porous acquisition layer are for example disclosed in US-A-3,371,667, EP-A-0,312,118 and EP-A-0,474,777.
- topsheet materials used for absorbent articles of this kind usually a nonwoven material of synthetic fibers, e g a spunbond material, often has a lower acquisition rate for liquid than the acquisition layer, at which liquid can leak from the article before it reaches the acquisition layer.
- the problem can of course be solved by using a topsheet material which is very open and by that has a high liquid permeability.
- Such an open topsheet material can however cause problems with a too low strength and sharp fiber ends from the acquisition layer may penetrate the open topsheet material and irritate the user.
- the object of the present invention is to provide a material having a high acquisition rate for liquid also at repeated wettings, has a high strength and wear resistance, high comfort and can be produced at a low cost.
- the material layer can be used as a liquid acquisition layer under a topsheet material, as a topsheet material or as an integrated topsheet/liquid acquisition layer. Description of the drawings
- Figure 1 is a plan view of an absorbent article in the form of an incontinence guard.
- Figure 2 is a section according to the line II-II in Figure 1.
- Figure 3 is a plan view of an absorbent article in the form of a diaper.
- Figure 4 shows schematically a piece of a fibrous material layer according to the invention.
- Figure 5 shows on an enlarged scale a section according to the line IV-IV in Figure 3.
- Figure 6-9 are schematic exploded cross-sectional view of four different embodiments of the article according to the invention.
- Figure 10 is a schematic view of a device for demonstrating liquid acquisition of an absorbent article folded as it will be used in between the legs of the wearer.
- Figure 1 and 2 show schematically an example of an incontinence guard 1 comprising a liquid pervious topsheet 2, a liquid impervious backsheet 3 and a absorbent body 4 enclosed therebetween.
- a porous resilient liquid acquisition layer 5 is arranged between the liquid pervious topsheet 2 and the absorbent body 4.
- the liquid pervious topsheet 2 can comprise a nonwoven material, for example a spunbond material of synthetic filaments, a meltblown material, a thermobonded material or a bonded carded fibrous material.
- the liquid impervious backsheet 3 can consist of a plastic film, a nonwoven material which is coated with a liquid impervious material or a hydrophobic nonwoven material which resists liquid penetration.
- the topsheet 2 and the backsheet 3 have a larger surface area than the absorbent body 4 and the liquid acquisition layer 3 and extend outside the edges thereof.
- the layers 2 and 3 are interconnected within the projecting portions, for example by gluing or welding with heat or ultrasonic.
- the absorbent body 4 can be of any conventional kind. Examples of common absorption materials are cellulosic fluff pulp, tissue layers, highly absorbent polymers (so called superabsorbents), absorbent foam materials, absorbent nonwoven materials and the like. It is common to combine cellulosic fluff pulp with superabsorbents in an absorbent body. It is also common to have absorbent bodies comprising layers of different materials with different properties concerning liquid acquisition capacity, liquid distribution capacity and liquid storage capacity.
- the thin absorbent bodies which are common in for example baby diapers and incontinence guards often consist of a compressed mixed or layered structure of cellulosic fluff pulp and superabsorbent.
- an incontinence guard of the kind shown in Figure 1 is mainly intended to be used by persons suffering from a relatively light incontinence and is easily worn in ordinary underpants.
- the fastening means 6 serve to keep the incontinence guard in place in the underpants during use.
- glue patterns for example transverse, are of course possible as well as other types of fastening means such as hook and loop, snap fasteners, girdles, special underpants or the like.
- An incontinence guard of the kind disclosed in Figure 1 is mainly intended to be used by persons suffering from relativley light incontinence and can easliy be worn in a pair of ordinary underpants.
- the fastening means 6 serves to keep the incontinence guard in place during use.
- the incontinence guard is hour glass shaped with broader end portions 7 and a more narrow crotch portion 8 located between the end portions.
- the crotch portion 9 is the portion of the incontinence guard that is intended during use to be worn in the crotch between the legs of the wearer and serve as a receiving portion for the discharged body fluid.
- an absorbent article in the form of a diaper which like the above described incontinence guard comprises a liquid pervious topsheet 2, a liquid impervious backsheet 3 and an absorbent body 4 enclosed therebetween and further an acquisition layer 5 applied between the topsheet 2 and the absorbent body 4.
- the topsheet is provided with a hole 16 opposite the intended wetting area, ar which the acquisition layer 5 is exposed directly towards the user in this area. Instead of one hole 16 several smaller holes may be arranged.
- the diaper is intended to enclose the lower part of the user's trunk as a pair of absorbent pants. It has a front portion 7a intended during use to be worn against the front part of the user's body, a back portion 7b intended during use to be worn against the back part of the user, and a therebetween a narrower crotch portion 8 intended to be worn in the crotch part between the legs of the user.
- a front portion 7a intended during use to be worn against the front part of the user's body
- a back portion 7b intended during use to be worn against the back part of the user
- a narrower crotch portion 8 intended to be worn in the crotch part between the legs of the user.
- Other fastening means such as hook and loop means (Velcro), hooks etc. are of course possible.
- the incontinence guard and the diaper shown in the drawings and described above only are non-limiting examples of an absorbent article.
- the absorbent article can also be a diaper, a pant diaper, a sanitary napkin or the like.
- the absorbent article can be disposable or reuseable. For reuseable articles other materials than the above described are however used as a liquid pervious topsheet and absorbent body respectively.
- a porous and resilient acquisition layer 5 having the ability to quickly receive large amounts of liquid and distribute the liquid and store it temporarily before it is absorbed by the underlying absorbent body 4. This ability should be essentially maintained also after wetting of the material.
- the acquisition layer 5 can either cover the entire absorbent body 4, extend outside thereof or cover only part of the central portions of the absorbent body.
- the acquisition layer 5 consists of a layer of continuous fibers 9, so called tow, vhich have been bonded together in points, spots or lines forming a bonding pattern 10, but otherwise are substantially unbonded to each other.
- the bonding pattern 10 is a pattern of lines with short lines arranged in a zigzag configuration.
- the bonding pattern is achieved by for example ultra sonic welding or other thermal bondning. Examples of other suitable thermal bonding methods are pattern calendering, laser bonding etc. This implies that at least some of the fibers in the tow are thermoplastic.
- thermoplastic fibers are polyolefines, polylactides, polyamides, polyester and the like. Also so called bicomponent fibers are included.
- thermobonding bonding can be made by a bonding agent through so called print bonding er dotbonding or mechani- cally through so called entangling by needling or by water jets.
- the choice of bonding type is mainly decided by which type of fibers are used in the tow.
- the design of the bonding pattern 10 can of course vary within wide limits.
- the pattern may be in the form of points, spots or preferably lines.
- the lines may be straight as well as curved and the length can vary from a few millimeters to extending transversely or diagonally across the entire article.
- Preferably the lines extend across or obliquely across the longitudinal direction of the fibers 9, so that a plurality of fibers are bonded to each other by each bonding line. It is also an advantage if different bonding lines overlap each other as seen across the longitudinal direction of the fibers, so that a main part of the fibers are bonded at least at some part of their length.
- the bonding pattern can be the same over the entire acquisition layer 5 or be different in different parts thereof, thus the bonding pattern can be more sparsely in the wetting area and tighter outside thereof. It is also possible to design the bonding pattern in such a way that the layer 5 will have different thickness in different parts of the article, for example thinner in the central portions thereof and thicker in the surrounding edge portions in order to create a bowl shape which provides a liquid receiving volume, alternatively thicker in the central portions than in the surrounding edge portions in order to provide a better body contact.
- Fiber tow is supplied in sacks or in the form of bales or rolls of continuous fibers, which either are straight, crimped or curled. Crimped or curled fibers are preferred in this case since they provide a very open and airy structure.
- the bales or the like are opened in special converting devices in which the fibers are separated from each other, stretched and spread out to an essentially evenly thick layer.
- the layer is bonded in the desired bonding pattern according to above and is cut in suitable lenghts either before or after application in en absorbent article. The bonding can alternatively be made after cutting.
- a tow is a relativley cheap delivery form of fibers as compared to nonwoven, waddings or the like which are normally used as acquisition materials.
- FIGS 4 and 5 there are schematically shown a piece of a layer 11 of continuous fibers 9 which have been bonded in a simple bonding pattern 10 with transverse short lines.
- the fibers 9 are except at the bonding sites unbonded to each other.
- the fibers in the tow can be of any suitable material such as polyethylene, polypropy- lene, polyamide, polyester, polylactide, polyvinyl acetate, cellulose acetate, regenerated cellu-lose such as viscose and rayon, or af bicomponent type with a shell of a polymer having a lower melting point and a core of a polymer having a higher melting point.
- a bicomponent fiber the core which is not melted provides stiffness and resiliency while the shell provides bonding.
- Specially preferred are such fibers having a high resiliency, for example polyester, copolyester and polypropylene.
- the fiber thickness can vary but should be in the interval 0.5 to 50 dtex, preferably 1.5 to 25 and most preferably 2 to 15 dtex, if the material is to be used as an acquisition layer.
- the open airy structure in combination with the relatively coarse fiber dimension gives a very rapid liquid acquisition.
- the material is strong due to the continuous fibers which provide strength in the longitudinal direction, and the bonding pattern which provides strength in the transverse direction.
- the material has been used as an acquistion layer 5 under a liquid pervious topsheet 2.
- the basis weight of the bonded fiber tow should in this case be at least 10 g/m 2 , preferably in the interval 10-1000 g/m 2 , more preferably 30-700 g/m 2 and most preferably 30-350 g/m 2 .
- the topsheet 2 can be of any optional kind, but preferably has a relatively open structure which permits a quick liquid acquisition.
- the topsheet 2 may be bonded to the acquisition layer 5 in the bonding points 10.
- FIG. 7 there is shown an alternative embodiment in which the bonded fiber tow according to the invention is used as a liquid pervious topsheet 12.
- the basis weight should in this case be at least 5 g/m 2 , preferably in the interval 5-500 g/m 2 and more preferably 5-200 g/m 2 and the fiber thickness should be in the interval 0.5-50 dtex, preferably 1.5-25 and more preferably 2-15 dtex.
- the material can be the same as described above.
- Under the topsheet 12 there is arranged an acquisition layer 15 which may be of optional kind.
- the absorbent article according to Figure 7 further comprises .an absorbent body 14 and a liquid pervious backsheet 13.
- the bonded fiber tow according to the invention has been used as a combined topsheet and acqusition material 22.
- the surface weigh should in this case be at least 10 g/m 2 , preferably in the interval 10-1000 g/m 2 , more preferably 30-700 g/m 2 and most preferably 30-350 g m 2 and the fiber thickness should be in the interval 0.5-50 dtex, preferably 1.5-25 and more preferably 2- 15 dtex.
- the absorbent article according to Figure 8 further comprises as usual an absorbent body 24 and a liquid pervious backsheet 23.
- the embodiment according to Figure 9 differs from the one disclosed in Figure 8 by the fact that a support material 25 e g in the form of a nonwoven has been integrated on the underside of the combined topsheet/acquisition layer 22.
- a support material can of course adjley or also be integrated to the upper side of the topsheet/acquisition layer 22 or to the acquisition layer 5 according to Figure 6 or the topsheet 12 according to Figure 7.
- the bonded fiber tow according to the invention will be directly contacting the skin of the wearer.
- the material consists of continuous fibers there are no protruding sharp fiber ends which may irritate the skin, but the material is very soft and pliable. Besides it has a sufficient strength and wear resistance due to the longitudinal continuous fibers 9, which provide strength in the longitudinal direction, and the bondning pattern which provides strength in the transverse direction.
- crimped or curled fibers are used in the tow, since they provide an extra open and lofty structure. It is also possible to use a combination of straight and crimped or curled fibers.
- the absorbent core was the same in both the reference product and the test product .and consisted of two layers, an upper layer in the form of a mixture of CTMP (chemothermomechanical pulp) and superabsorbent and a lower layer in the form of a mixture of chemical pulp and superabsorbent.
- CTMP chemothermomechanical pulp
- the bonded fiber tow which in the test product replaced the topsheet and the acquisition layer of the reference product consisted of polyester fibers of the thickness 6.7 dtex and the basis weight 70 g/m 2
- test liquid there was used a synthetic urine ecording to the description i e g EP 0,565,606 and which can be obatained from Jayco Pharmaceuticals Co., Pennsylvania.
- the composition was 2 g/1 KC1; 2g/l Na 2 SO 4 ; 0,85 g/1 (NH 4 )H 2 PO 4 ; 0,15 g/1 (NH 4 ) 2 HPO 4 ; 0J9 g/1 CaCl 2 and 0,23 g/1 MgCl 2 .
- the pH of the composition wasr 6,0- 6,4.
- test product had a quicker acquisition time than the reference product.
- the difference was especially significant at the second and third wettings.
