  • Publication number: 20160213533
    Abstract: An absorbent core includes a first carrier substrate and a second carrier substrate; a discontinuous layer of superabsorbent polymer material disposed between the first and second carrier substrates. The superabsorbent polymer material may be disposed in a plurality of superabsorbent material stripes. Two of the stripes are separated by an interstice. The interstice has little or no superabsorbent polymer material and extends from the first carrier substrate to the second carrier substrate.

  • Publication number: 20140308486
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for making a fibrous structure, particularly in order to provide a fibrous structure comprising a bonding material which is bonded to a nonwoven substrate at a plurality of discrete bond sites. The plurality of discrete bond sites comprises first, second and third areas. The first, second and third areas comprise a plurality of individual parallelograms which have different compacted fibers relative to each others. The first, second and third areas comprise a plurality of individual parallelograms which have different densities of compacted fibers relative to each other. The bonding material is made of a plurality of filaments comprising a hydroxyl polymer.
