An absorbent article includes a first waist region, a second waist region and a crotch region disposed between the first and second waist regions. The absorbent article further includes a topsheet, a backsheet, an absorbent core disposed between the topsheet and the backsheet, and a laminate. The laminate has an elasticized region. The laminate includes a first nonwoven, a second nonwoven and an elastomeric material sandwiched between said first and second nonwovens in the elasticized region. The laminate includes a bonding region with a bond density of at least 4% and at least partially overlapping the elastomeric material. The laminate exhibits an Unload Force at 50% of at least 0.90 N.

Absorbent article with ear portion

The present disclosure is directed, in part, to an absorbent article comprising a topsheet, a backsheet and absorbent core positioned at least partially intermediate the topsheet and the backsheet. The absorbent core comprises an absorbent material positioned within a core wrap. The absorbent core defines a first channel therein. A material is positioned at least partially intermediate the topsheet and the core wrap. The material defines a second channel therein.

Absorbent articles with channels

The present disclosure is directed, in part, to an absorbent article comprising a liquid management system (LMS) and an absorbent core disposed at least partially intermediate a topsheet and a backsheet. The LMS defines one or more channels therein. The one or more channels of the LMS may at least partially overlap or not overlap with channels defined in the absorbent core.

The present disclosure relates to absorbent articles and methods for assembling absorbent articles having a design including: a first graphic extending along a first component, a second graphic extending along a second component, and a discontinuous region separating the first graphic from the second graphic. The discontinuous region is configured to provide the appearance that the first and second graphics form a contiguous design while at the same time mitigating the need to precisely align the graphics on separated components to form a contiguous design during the assembly process.

Methods for making diaper pants with a design having a discontinuous region between a belt and chassis arranged to provide a contiguous appearance

In one embodiment, taped and pant articles of the present disclosure may comprise first and second chassis and first and second belt flaps that are at least substantially identical.

Absorbent articles comprising substantially identical chassis and substantially identical flaps

The present disclosure is directed, in part, to an absorbent article that comprises a liquid management system (LMS) and an absorbent core disposed at least partially intermediate a topsheet and a backsheet. The LMS defines one or more channels substantially free of superabsorbent polymers. The one or more channels of the LMS may at least partially overlap channels defined by the absorbent core. The absorbent article may comprises a liquid distribution system (LDS) that defines one or more channels.

The present disclosure is directed, in part, to absorbent article comprising a liquid permeable topsheet, a liquid impermeable backsheet, a lateral axis defining a front region on a first side of the lateral axis and a back region on a second side of the lateral axis, and an absorbent core positioned at least partially intermediate the liquid permeable topsheet and the liquid impermeable backsheet. The liquid permeable topsheet may comprise a first zone situated primarily in the front region and having a substantially transferrable chemical treatment and a second zone situated primarily in the back region and having the substantially transferrable chemical treatment. A basis weight of the substantially transferrable chemical treatment may be greater in the second zone than in the first zone.

Absorbent articles having substrates having zonal treatments

A disposable diaper having features that improve its ability to lay open in a flat configuration is disclosed. The diaper may include fastening members having a minimum basis weight, and a minimum width and a minimum surface area relative the chassis dimensions, along with other features that tend to cause the diaper to lay open in a flat configuration, for the convenience of the caregiver during application of the diaper to a baby.

Disposable diaper with convenient lay-open features

An absorbent article comprising a raised barrier is provided. The raised barrier extends into a front waist region, a crotch region, and a back waist region of the absorbent article.
