An absorbent article includes a first waist region, a second waist region, and a crotch region disposed between the first and second waist regions; and a chassis having a topsheet, a backsheet and an absorbent core. The article also includes a waist feature having a portion extending longitudinally outboard of the chassis in the waist region. The backsheet includes a barrier layer having a maximum length, L. The absorbent core has absorbent material and a maximum length, L. Lis substantially the same as L. The absorbent material is disposed in an absorbent material deposition area. The absorbent material deposition area has a maximum length, L, and Lis about 90% or greater of L. The first absorbent area lateral edge is disposed a longitudinal distance, D1, from the first barrier lateral edge, and D1 is about 5% or less of L.

A disposable diaper product useful for collecting a urine sample from an infant is disclosed. In one example the product may have a liquid control structure overlying a liquid impermeable backsheet, with a plan surface area defining a volume coextensive therewith, wherein a portion of the volume defined by at least 50 percent of the plan surface area contains no more than 50 percent by weight absorbent material. In another example the product may have a liquid control structure overlying a liquid impermeable backsheet, and have an average Liquid Release Ratio of at least 3 percent. A method for collecting a urine sample from an infant is also disclosed, in which a diaper is used for collection.

Diaper product adapted for collection of urine sample from an infant

The present disclosure relates to taped and pant articles comprising substantially identical chassis.

An absorbent article includes a first waist region, a second waist region, and a crotch region disposed between the first and second waist regions; and a chassis comprising a topsheet, a backsheet and an absorbent core. The article also includes a waist feature joined to the chassis a waist region and having a portion extending longitudinally outboard of the chassis in said waist region. The backsheet has a barrier layer having a maximum length, L. The absorbent core has absorbent material and a maximum length, L, and wherein Lis substantially the same as L. The absorbent material is disposed in an absorbent material deposition area. The absorbent material deposition area has a maximum length, L, wherein Lis about 90% or greater of L. The first absorbent area lateral edge is disposed a longitudinal distance, D1, from the first barrier lateral edge, wherein D1 is 5% or less of L.

The present invention relates to a process for making a fibrous web comprising a plurality of first areas comprising hydroentangled fibers, the first areas being discrete in a machine direction and/or a counter-machine direction, the process comprises subjecting a fibrous web to a hydroentanglement process directing water jets from a water injection means on to the fibrous web, and blocking at least one of the water jets from the water injection means discontinuously using a first blocking member positioned between the water injection means and the fibrous web wherein the first blocking member comprises at least one aperture, or at least one recess on its surface, and is rotatable about an axis perpendicular to a z-direction.

Nonwoven, and process and apparatus for producing the same

An article with the entirety of the length of the belt side edge of the front belt seamed with a certain length of the belt side edge of the back belt to define a seam length LS. The front and back belts may each be divided into 4 zones extending in the transverse direction and defined by its location from the distal edge to the proximal edge relative to the percentage of the seam length LS where: 0-25% is the waist zone, 25-50% is the distal tummy zone, 50-85% is the proximal tummy zone, and 85-100% is the leg zone. The tensile stress of the front leg zone may be no more than 50% of the tensile stress of the front proximal tummy zone, and the tensile stress of the back leg zone may be no more than 100% of the tensile stress of the back proximal tummy zone.
