A wet wipe that exhibits a novel combination of properties and methods for making such wet wipes are provided.

Wet wipes comprising a fibrous structure and a liquid composition

The present invention relates to wetness indicator compositions that comprise at least one leuco dye and one color developer in a hot-melt adhesive matrix. Upon contact with water or with water-containing fluids, said wetness indicator compositions are apt to change their color from a colorless state to a colorful state or from a first colored state to a second colored state having a color different from the first one; in particular, from a first colorless, white, or translucent state to a second state having a visible color, or vice versa. The disclosed wetness indicator compositions can be used as wetness/fluid indicators in various applications, e.g. in packaging articles and in absorbent articles; in an absorbent mat or sheet or operatory cloth for medical use; in a wound dressing product; in an absorbent mat or sheet for food products.

Wetness indicator compositions comprising leuco dyes

An absorbent article comprising a topsheet, a backsheet, and an absorbent core disposed between the topsheet and the backsheet, wherein the article further comprises at least two volume indicators, and wherein at least one volume indicator comprises a masking layer comprising a water-soluble colorant and a stationary color layer comprising a permanent colorant.

Volume indicators with masking layer

An absorbent article, intended to be worn by a wearer, wherein at least a part of a body facing surface of that article has a lotion composition. The lotion composition includes at least one first compound which is liquid at 25&#xb0; C. and at least one second compound which is solid at 25&#xb0; C. The first compound is a liquid polyethylene glycol, and the second compound is a solid fatty compound selected from the group consisting of solid fatty acids, solid fatty alcohol and solid fatty soaps. When the solid fatty compound is a solid fatty acid, then the total amount of liquids is higher than the total amount of solids.

Absorbent article comprising a lotion composition for reducing adherence of feces or menses to the skin

A composition comprising a metathesized polyol ester that may be combined with a fibrous structure, including a wipe.

Fibrous structures comprising metathesized unsaturated polyol esters

The present invention relates to absorbent articles comprising species of glyceride copolymers that provide unexpectedly improved softening performance and formulability.

Absorbent articles comprising glyceride copolymers

A composition comprising a glyceride copolymer that may be combined with a fibrous structure, including a wipe.

Fibrous structures comprising glyceride copolymers

An absorbent article including features facilitating toilet training of a wearer is provided. The article includes at least a first appearing graphic that changes from an initial, less visible state to a subsequent, more visible state in the absence of wetness, thereby to provide positive encouragement to a child during toilet training. The appearing graphic becomes less visible if subjected to liquid. A wetness sensation member may also be provided to give tactile, negative sensation to the child, thereby giving feedback received by at least two different senses. Additionally or alternatively, a second appearing graphic, different from the first appearing graphic, may be provided to increase a child's interest in the toilet training process. The first and second appearing graphics may become visible at different times, thereby providing a sequential or spaced reveal of the image.

Absorbent article having dryness indicating graphic

An absorbent article that includes a backsheet, a wetness indicator composition having good stability, and an absorbent core. The wetness indicator composition includes a stabilizer, a colorant, and a matrix. The colorant has first and second color states associated with first and second wetness indicator states. The wetness indicator exhibits no color change after 10 days when measured according to the CTH Stability Test.

Absorbent articles comprising wetness indicators

An absorbent article of the present invention may comprise a backsheet, a wetness indicator composition, and an absorbent core. The wetness indicator composition may comprise a stabilizer, a colorant, and a matrix. The absorbent core may comprise a nonwoven layer and an absorbent polymer material, and optionally, a thermoplastic adhesive material. The wetness indicator composition may be in direct contact with an inner surface of the backsheet and an outer surface of the nonwoven layer. And, the absorbent polymer material, and optionally, the thermoplastic adhesive material, may be in direct contact with an inner surface of the nonwoven. Further, the absorbent core may be substantially cellulose free and may be oriented in at least one row.

A liquid-activated formulation is provided, comprising a liquid-activated colorant, a hydrochromic ionic compound, an opacifier, a binding matrix, and a surfactant.

Liquid-activated formulation with surfactant

A liquid-activated formulation is provided, comprising a solvent-soluble or liquid-activated colorant, a permanent colorant, a hydrochromic ionic compound, an opacifier, and a binding matrix.

Liquid-activated formulation with permanent colorant
