Abstract: Disposable absorbent article absorbent core for the absorption of menses or blood, having porous absorbent gelling material.

Abstract: The present invention relates to absorbent articles, in particular sanitary napkins and panty liners, which offer improved protection and comfort to the wearer by having side panels, so-called wings, which comprise a gel-forming polysaccharide, preferably a chitosan material.

Abstract: A thermoplastic absorbent material for the absorption of proteinaceous or serous body fluids. The thermoplastic absorbent material has a better handling towards such fluids, both in terms of retention capacity and absorption rate, comprising a thermoplastic base material and a selected polyacrylate based material.

Abstract: The present invention relates to articles, preferably disposable absorbent articles like sanitary napkins and pantiliners, which comprise a cationic polysaccharide, typically chitin-based material and/or chitosan material, and an acidic pH buffering means. Such disposable absorbent articles deliver improved odor control performance even upon prolonged wearing time of the articles.

Abstract: The present invention relates to disposable absorbent articles like sanitary napkins and pantiliners, which comprise spore-forming micro-organisms and/or spores which have the ability to germinate into microorganisms which exhibit antagonistic properties against undesirable strains of microorganisms when the articles are in use. The invention provides storage-stable disposable absorbent articles which can be worn for long periods of time with reduced generation of undesirable odors and enhanced fluid (e.g., bodily fluid) control within the articles.

Abstract: The present invention relates to articles suitable for controlling odors, especially odors associated with bodily fluids, which comprise a cationic polysaccharide, preferably chitosan material, together with an odor controlling agent, preferably an odor absorbent agent and/or a chelating agent. This combination provides synergistic reduced odor control towards malodors associated with bodily fluids like menses.

Abstract: The present invention relates to absorbent articles, such as sanitary napkins, panty-liners, nursing pads, baby diapers and the like. The absorbent articles include an agent able to convey a perception to the wearer, without the need to create the external condition perceived by the wearer. Such absorbent articles are able to improve comfort, by, for example, conveying to the wearer thereof a long lasting freshness sensation upon prolonged wearing time of such articles.

Abstract: The present invention relates to articles, preferably disposable absorbent articles like sanitary napkins and pantiliners, which comprise a cationic polysaccharide, typically chitin-based material and/or chitosan material, and an acidic pH buffering means. Such disposable absorbent articles deliver improved odor control performance even upon prolonged wearing time of the articles.

Abstract: The present invention relates to articles, preferably disposable absorbent articles like sanitary napkins and pantiliners, which comprise a chitosan material and an anionic absorbent gelling material. Such disposable absorbent articles deliver improved odor control performance and improved fluid handling properties/absorption performance, especially in case of electrolytes-containing fluids like menses.

Abstract: The present invention relates to breathable absorbent articles, such as sanitary napkins, pantiliners, nursing pads and baby diapers, having a breathable backsheet, and comprising a chitosan material. Absorbent articles are provided that deliver not only initial high performing breathability but also maintain effective breathability in use as well as high protection level while delivering also effective odor control towards odor associated with bodily fluids.
