An absorbent article comprising an absorbent gelling material (AGM) having an encapsulated compound of one or more odor controlling organic compounds disposed upon a surface thereof is described. Alternatively, an AGM particle comprising an encapsulated reactive compound of one or more odor controlling organic compounds disposed as a surface coating thereon is described. Additionally, a method to manufacture an absorbent article is described. The method provides for the steps of: a) providing a solution in a solvent system, the solution has an encapsulating agent and one or more odor controlling organic compounds as a surface coating; b) applying an amount of the solution to a surface of an AGM particle; and, c) incorporating the AGM particle having the solution applied thereto into the absorbent article.

Absorbent articles comprising encapsulating agents

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

Disclosed are absorbent articles having a cyclodextrin complex of one or more odor controlling organic compounds wherein the cyclodextrin is a substituted cyclodextrin (wherein the H atom of OH groups in positions 2, 3 and 6 is partially or entirely replaced by a substituent &#x2014;R) having a substitution degree (DS) of 0.4 or more &#x2014;R substituents per molecule of cyclodextrin and wherein substitution in position 2 is 20% or above, in position 6 is 20% or above and in position 3 is 50% or below. Cyclodextrin complexes of this type release the odor controlling organic compound much faster and in more complete manner than non-substituted or differently substituted cyclodextrin complexes thus the odor control efficacy is improved.

Absorbent article comprising cyclodextrin complexes

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

Absorbent articles having a cyclodextrin complex of one or more odor controlling organic compounds wherein the cyclodextrin is a substituted cyclodextrin (wherein the H atom of OH groups in positions 2, 3 and 6 is partially or entirely replaced by a substituent &#x2014;R) having a substitution degree (DS) of 0.4 or more &#x2014;R substituents per molecule of cyclodextrin and wherein substitution in position 2 is 20% or above, in position 6 is 20% or above and in position 3 is 50% or below. Cyclodextrin complexes of this type release the odor controlling organic compound much faster and in more complete manner than non-substituted or differently substituted cyclodextrin complexes thus the odor control efficacy is improved.

A composition applied on a substrate comprised by, or forming, or used for manufacturing of, a disposable absorbent article may be used for reducing the adherence of feces or menses to the human skin. The composition deposited on the substrate does not affect negatively the manufacturing process of the disposable absorbent article and imparts desirable fluid handling properties to the substrate. The composition may also be desirably deposited on a substrate used as, or in a wipe.

Substrate comprising a composition reducing the adherence of feces or menses to the skin

An absorbent article comprising an odor control material comprising at least one inclusion complex of cyclodextrin with an organic compound which is dispersed in a matrix comprising a polysiloxane oil.

Absorbent articles comprising an odour control system

An absorbent article to be worn by a wearer having a skin-contacting sheet such as a topsheet, a backsheet, an absorbent core and a colored hydrophilic lotion, that not only helps to reduce the adherence of the menses or feces to the skin, thereby improving the ease of menses or bowl movement (BM) clean up, but that also may serve as a wetness indicator. The absorbent articles may be infant (baby) diapers, including training pants, adult incontinence articles and the like.

Absorbent article with lotion

Absorbent article with colored lotioned sheet

A method of controlling the spread of volatile substances is provided. The method comprises the steps of: a) impregnating a fragrance component comprising at least one PRM onto a plurality of surfaces of a sorbent to form a volatile substance-controlling composition; and b) disposing the volatile substance-controlling composition into an article wherein the fragrance component is released from the sorbent primarily in the presence of one or more volatile substances when the volatile substances are adsorbed by the sorbent.

Method of making and applying volatile substance-controlling composition

The present invention relates to a volatile substance-controlling composition comprising:

Volatile substance-controlling composition

The present invention relates to a novel composition for efficiently releasing hydrophilic or water-soluble skin care actives from an oleaginous composition. The substantially oleaginous composition of the present invention comprises: (1) at least one skin care active; (2) a release agent having an HLB of at least about 3; and (3) a hydrophobic barrier protectant. The novel release composition may be topically applied to skin using a dispensing means such as an absorbent article, a wipe, a bandage, a pad, a canister, a stick, an aerosol dispenser, a sprayer, and the like.

Compositions for efficient release of active ingredients

The present invention relates to an article having a skin care composition disposed on at least a portion of the article. The skin care composition is a breathable, barrier protectant which can be immobilized on the article and is transferable to the wearer's skin via contact, normal wearer motion and/or body heat. Particularly, the skin care composition should have a water vapor transmission rate of at least about 0.1 gm/m.sup.2 /hr and a barrier property of at least about -25 on Hunter b scale, as measured by a Methylene Blue Dye Method.
