Abstract: This invention relates to a containment tissue of an absorbent article such as a diaper, treated to have regions with hydrophobic properties to maximize the strength of the containment tissue when wet. The result is less superabsorbent material contacting the user and therefore less skin irritation. Additional benefits of this invention include enhanced leakage protection and reduced skin wetting, which also reduces skin irritation. A hydrophobic agent such as a sizing agent or adhesive is used to create zones of water resiliency on the containment tissue in various regions, patterns, and/or configurations. The treatments of the containment tissue are applied by known application methods such as gravure printing, spraying, or ink jet printing. Liquid insults easily wick through untreated containment tissue but stop at the boundaries of treated regions. This provides a method of leakage control when wicking is halted before the liquid reaches the edges of the absorbent article.

Abstract: A method for producing steel alloy gears comprises the steps of providing a gear with a shape in which its tooth surfaces have excess material requiring subsequent removal; grinding the gear's tooth root and flank surfaces to a final finish shape; and subsequently performing a final heat treat to the ground gear to provide a hardened surface layer extending at least to a minimum depth required by the function of the gear. The grinding is advantageously accomplished by cubic boron nitride grinding. The final heat treat is controlled so that the hardened surface layer extends to a depth not substantially greater than the minimum depth required by the function of the gear. The final heat treat also relieves stresses caused by the preceding steps and also imposes beneficial stresses.
