This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18198308 titled 'ABSORBENT ARTICLE HAVING FLEX BOND CHANNEL REGIONS
Simplified Explanation
- The patent application describes a disposable absorbent article with a front end, back end, and middle region. - The article includes a topsheet, backsheet, and absorbent core structure. - A flex bond channel region is formed in the middle region. - The absorbent core structure consists of an upper nonwoven layer, lower nonwoven layer, and inner core layer. - The flex bond channel region has specific dimensions, including a dry channel depth of at least 1.0 mm and a channel width of 1.0 mm to 3.0 mm. - The flex bond channel region has a CD Bending Resistance Index of 1.1 to 3.0 and a Dry MD Bending Resistance of less than 0.04 N/mm.
Original Abstract Submitted
A disposable absorbent article having a front end region, a back end region, and a middle region disposed between the front and back end regions. The absorbent article includes a topsheet; a backsheet; an absorbent core structure disposed between the topsheet and backsheet; and a flex bond channel region formed in at least the middle region. The absorbent core structure includes an upper nonwoven layer having polymer fibers; a lower nonwoven layer having polymer fibers; and an inner core layer disposed between the upper and lower nonwoven layers. The flex bond channel region has a dry channel depth of at least 1.0 mm and a channel width of from about 1.0 mm to about 3.0 mm. The flex bond channel region has a CD Bending Resistance Index of from about 1.1 to about 3.0, and a Dry MD Bending Resistance of less than about 0.04 N/mm.
