  • Patent number: 10806641
    Abstract: An absorbent structure comprising a planar substrate, an auxiliary glue applied on the substrate, an absorbent material comprising from 80% to 100% by weight of superabsorbent particles deposited on the substrate on an absorbent material deposition area comprising a pattern of absorbent material land areas separated by absorbent material-free junction areas, wherein the deposition area can be notionally divided in eight deposition zones of equal length along the longitudinal direction. A fibrous thermoplastic adhesive layer immobilizes at least some of the absorbent material. The absorbent material is profiled along the longitudinal direction so that at least one of the eight deposition zones is a zone of lower absorbent material amount and the auxiliary glue is absent, or present at a level of at least 50% by weight lower than the average amount of auxiliary glue in at least one of these zones of lower absorbent material amount.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 10137039
    Abstract: Substantially planar absorbent core comprising at least 80% and up to 100% by weight of superabsorbent polymer as absorbent material on an absorbent material deposition area and a core wrap. The absorbent material deposition area comprises at least one absorbent material-free channel-forming areas through which the top and bottom substrates of the core wrap are bonded together. An auxiliary glue is applied directly at least to the inner surface of the first substrate on an auxiliary glue application area. The auxiliary glue application area is smaller than the absorbent material deposition area and the core comprises at least one C-wrap seal along at least one edge, in particular along the two longitudinally extending edges of the core.
