Publication number: 20200360191Abstract: In a production method of an elastic composite sheet, the elastic member does not break when the elastic member, in a stretched state, is bonded to a base material sheet; an elastic composite sheet and a disposable wearable article use the elastic composite sheet. A strip-shaped or string-shaped elastic member composed mainly of a thermoplastic elastic resin is stretched in the longitudinal direction of the elastic member. The stretched elastic member is placed over a first base material sheet such that the main surface of the first base material sheet contacts the elastic member. In this state, the elastic member and the first base material sheet are bonded in a first position that overlaps the elastic member seen from a direction perpendicular to the main surface of the first base material sheet and that is away from the edges of the elastic member.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 17, 2018Publication date: November 19, 2020Inventors: Hideyuki NAKAMURA, Yukihiko FUJITA, Ayako KITA
