Abstract: An absorbent article such as a diaper comprises a topsheet, a backsheet and an absorbent core. The absorbent layer comprises at least a longitudinally-extending central portion, and a first and second side portions disposed transversally outward of the central portion. The absorbent core further comprises first and second folding guides between the central portion and the side portions. Each side portion comprises a plurality of winglets, each winglet having a proximal side relative to a folding guide and extending outward from this proximal side, and wherein neighboring winglets are separated by a gap between their neighboring sides. The central portion and the side portions form a three-dimensional basin when the absorbent core is folded along the folding guides. The article further may comprise at least one liquid management layer substantially free of superabsorbent polymer between the topsheet and the absorbent core. The absorbent core may be substantially free of cellulose fibers.

Abstract: An absorbent article for personal hygiene having a front edge and a back edge and comprising a liquid impermeable backsheet, a liquid permeable topsheet, an absorbent core and a pair of barrier leg cuffs disposed symmetrically relative to the longitudinal axis. Each barrier leg cuff is defined by a proximal edge attached to the rest of the article and an elasticized terminal edge that can protrude upwards. The topsheet comprises a raisable region that is attached to the barrier leg cuffs so that when the barrier leg cuffs are raised, the raisable region is lifted up by the barrier leg cuffs and an empty volume is formed between the raisable region and the chassis of the article underneath.

Abstract: A freshening composition is provided. The composition includes at least one particle, and an aqueous carrier. The composition includes a polysaccharide system having a first polysaccharide and a second polysaccharide. The first polysaccharide is xanthan gum and the second polysaccharide is selected from the group consisting of konjac gum, locust bean gum, and combinations thereof. The composition may include an unencapsulated perfume.

Abstract: An enhanced, co-formed fibrous web structure is disclosed. The web structure may have a co-formed core layer sandwiched between two scrim layers. The core layer may be formed of a blend of cellulose pulp fibers and melt spun filaments. The scrim layers may be formed of melt spun filaments. Filaments of one or both of the scrim layers, and optionally the core layer, may also be meltblown filaments. The core layer may include consolidated masses of cellulose pulp fibers to, for example, enhance texture and cleaning efficacy of a wet wipe made from the structure. The material forming the consolidated masses may be selected and/or processed so as to cause the masses to have reduced visual discernibility relative the surrounding areas of the structure, when the fibrous web structure is wetted. A method for forming the structure, including formation and inclusion of the consolidated masses, is also disclosed.

Abstract: A method for providing a nonlinear line of weakness on a web material includes: providing a counter component comprising a nonlinear shape, where the nonlinear shape has a shape width, W; providing a blade in operative relationship with the counter component and comprising a plurality of teeth; rotating at least one of the blade and the counter component into interacting relationship with the other of the blade and the counter component; feeding a web between the counter component and the blade such that while in interacting relationship the blade cooperates with the counter component to perforate the web, wherein the web is moving in a machine direction; and reciprocally shifting one of the counter component and the blade for a distance, D, in a shifting direction, wherein D is at least the translational distance that one tooth travels to cover the shape width, W.

Abstract: A nonwoven fabric. The nonwoven fabric can include a first surface and a second surface and a visually discernible pattern of three-dimensional features on one of the first or second surface. Each of the three-dimensional features can define a microzone comprising a first region and a second region. The first and second regions can have a difference in values for an intensive property, wherein the intensive property is one or more of thickness, basis weight, or volumetric density, and wherein the first surface has a TS7 value of less than about 15 dB V2 rms.

Abstract: A water-soluble pouch suitable for use in machine dishwashing and which comprises a plurality of compartments in generally superposed or superposable relationship, each containing one or more detergent active or auxiliary components, and wherein the pouch has a volume of from about 5 to about 70 ml and a longitudinal/transverse aspect ratio in the range from about 2:1 to about 1:8, preferably from about 1:1 to about 1:4. The water-soluble pouch allows for optimum delivery of dishwashing detergent. A process for the manufacture of multi-compartment pouches and a pack to contain the pouches are also disclosed.

Abstract: An absorbent article includes a chassis comprising a topsheet, a backsheet, and an absorbent core disposed between the topsheet and backsheet. The absorbent core contains superabsorbent polymer material and about 10% or less by weight of cellulosic fibers. The backsheet comprises a film comprising a plurality of micropores. The film comprises odor absorbing material disposed in one or more of the micropores.

Abstract: A method for making water-absorbing polymer particles is provided and includes providing crosslinkers, polymerizable monomers and inorganic solid particles. The average closest distance between two neighboring crosslinkers (RXL) in a water-absorbing polymer particle for a specific X-load of the water-absorbing polymer particle is calculated via the formula below: Rxl = ( ( 1 rho_dry + x_L rho_liq ) N A · ? i ? ? w_xl i Mr_CXL i ) 1 3 ( I ) with x_L being the amount of liquid absorbed in the water-absorbing polymer particle in g liq/g water-absorbing polymer particle, rho_liq being the density at room temperature of the fluid that swells the water-absorbing polymer particle (generally saline of 0.
