Abstract: The present disclosure is directed, in part, to an absorbent article having a front waist edge, a rear waist edge longitudinally opposing the front waist edge, a longitudinal axis extending from a midpoint of the front waist edge to a midpoint of the rear waist edge, a liquid permeable topsheet, a liquid impermeable backsheet, and an absorbent core disposed at least partially intermediate the topsheet and the backsheet. The absorbent core having superabsorbent polymers and a channel network substantially free of the superabsorbent polymers. The channel network having a perimeter channel, a first longitudinal channel inboard of the perimeter channel, a second longitudinal channel inboard of the perimeter channel, and one or more connecting lateral channels. The one or more connecting lateral channels connect one of the first longitudinal channel to the second longitudinal channel or the perimeter channel to the perimeter channel.

Abstract: An absorbent article includes a front waist edge, a rear waist edge longitudinally opposing the front waist edge, and a longitudinal axis extending from a midpoint of the front waist edge to a midpoint of the rear waist edge. The absorbent article comprises a liquid permeable topsheet, a liquid impermeable backsheet, and an absorbent core disposed at least partially intermediate the topsheet and the backsheet. The absorbent core comprises a first continuous channel and a second continuous channel, each substantially free of the superabsorbent polymers and at least partially oriented in the longitudinal direction of the absorbent. The first and second channels each have lateral widths parallel to the lateral axis. A profile of the lateral widths of each channel over a longitudinal length of at least 50 mm of the channel taken along the longitudinal axis is substantially constant. The average lateral width of the first channel differs from an average lateral width of the second channel.

Abstract: The present disclosure is directed, in part, to an absorbent article comprising a front waist edge, a rear waist edge longitudinally opposing the front waist edge, and a longitudinal axis extending from a midpoint of the front waist edge to a midpoint of the rear waist edge. The absorbent article comprises a liquid permeable topsheet, a liquid impermeable backsheet, and an absorbent core disposed at least partially intermediate the topsheet and the backsheet. The absorbent core comprises a channel substantially free of the superabsorbent polymers and at least partially oriented in the longitudinal direction of the absorbent article. The channel has lateral widths taken parallel to the lateral axis. A profile of the lateral widths of the channel over a longitudinal length of at least 50 mm of the channel taken along the longitudinal axis is substantially constant.

Abstract: The present disclosure is directed, in part, to an absorbent article comprising an absorbent core enclosing an absorbent material comprising superabsorbent polymers. The absorbent core comprises a first channel and a second channel, both of which are substantially free of the superabsorbent polymers and are at least partially oriented in a longitudinal direction of the article. The first and second channels each have lateral widths taken parallel to a lateral axis. The absorbent core comprises a pocket that is substantially free of the superabsorbent polymers and that has a portion on a longitudinal axis of the article. The pocket has lateral widths taken parallel to the lateral axis. A profile of the sum of the lateral widths of the first and second channels and the lateral widths of the pocket over a longitudinal length of at least 50 mm taken along the longitudinal axis has two separate substantially constant portions.

Abstract: The present disclosure is directed, in part, to an absorbent article comprising an absorbent core disposed at least partially intermediate the topsheet and the backsheet and comprising a core wrap enclosing an absorbent material. The core wrap comprises a first material and a second material. The first material forms a C-wrap at least partially around the second material. The absorbent material comprises at least 80% of superabsorbent polymers by weight of the absorbent material. The absorbent core comprises a channel substantially free of the superabsorbent polymers and at least partially oriented in a longitudinal direction of the article. The channel has an arcuate portion facing a longitudinal axis of the article. An angle between a tangent line of the arcuate portion and the longitudinal axis is greater than or equal to 20 degrees.
