Abstract: An intergrally wrapped sanitary protection absorbent article and method of wrapping are disclosed providing an absorbent configured to fit the pudendal region of a woman, and folded and enclosed in a liquid-impermeable baffle. In one aspect, the liquid-impermeable baffle has a first side on one side of the baffle width and a second side on the other side of the baffle width, opposite the first side, wherein the first side and the second side are sealed along their length to form side seals, such that the sides and the seals form the integrally wrapped sanitary protection absorbent article enclosure of the present invention. In one aspect, a first perforation strip on the first side seal and a second perforation strip on the second side seal make it convenient for opening the individually wrapped absorbent article package of the present invention.

Abstract: An absorbent article is disclosed for absorbing and retaining human exudate. The article includes an absorbent having a first surface facing the body of a user and a second surface aligned approximately opposite to the first surface. A liquid-impermeable baffle is positioned adjacent to at least the second surface of the absorbent while a fluid-permeable cover is positioned adjacent to at least the first surface of the absorbent. A deodorizing mixture is positioned within the article and is positioned to remain dry for a substantial period of time. The mixture is an anhydrous, non-buffer blend of at least basic and pH neutral odor absorbing particles.

Abstract: An absorbent article is disclosed which contains an absorbent positioned between a fluid permeable cover and a fluid-impermeable baffle. The baffle can be either a nonwoven web or have a nonwoven web secured to it. The nonwoven web hs a high coefficient of friction so as to hold the absorbent article stationary relative to an adjacent undergarment and thereby retain the absorbent article in a comfortable position relative to the body of the user. The nonwoven web is a dry, soft, non-tacky, fibrous material which can have an elastomeric component. The nonwoven web can partially or totally cover the exterior surface of the absorbent article which is away from the body of the user.
