Abstract: An absorbent article is disclosed. The absorbent article has a longitudinal centerline, a transverse centerline generally perpendicular to the longitudinal centerline, a wearer-facing surface and an opposing garment-facing surface, a front end region, an opposing back end region, and a central region disposed between the front end region and the back end region. The absorbent article further includes a topsheet; a backsheet; an absorbent system disposed between the topsheet and the backsheet; and a plurality of pre-formed adhesive portions disposed on the garment-facing surface. The absorbent article exhibits a peel force of at least 1.0 N in accordance with the Peel Force test and leaves no residue in accordance with the Adhesive Residue test method.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a layers layered absorbent element for use in a disposable absorbent article comprising a top layer and a bottom layer. The top layer is a fibrous nonwoven layer having a basis weight of from 20 to 100 gsm, a thickness from 0.25 to 5 mm, is formed with fibers having an average length from 26 to 200 mm and it has a fixed height saturation at 5 cm above 40%. The bottom layer is in direct contact with the top layer and comprises superabsorbent polymer (SAP) and cellulosic fibers. A plurality of fibers protruding from the bottom layer penetrate into the top layer.

Abstract: An absorbent article comprising an odor control material comprising at least one inclusion complex of cyclodextrin with an organic compound which is dispersed in a matrix comprising a polysiloxane oil.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for making a layered absorbent element, for use in disposable absorbent articles, which comprises a top layer and a bottom layer. The method includes providing a fibrous nonwoven layer having a basis weight from about 20 gsm to about 100 gsm, and a thickness of from about 0.25 mm to about 5 mm, providing an air laid or a wet laid manufacturing line comprising a forming screen, placing said nonwoven layer onto said forming screen, forming onto the nonwoven layer an air laid or wet laid layer comprising fibers and superabsorbent polymers by depositing these materials onto the nonwoven layer using an air laid or wet laid process where the nonwoven layer acts as forming screen. The resulting material is then compressed.

Abstract: Absorbent articles provided with an odor control system. The odor control system includes at least two classes of odor control materials, wherein one class acts on malodors or a malodorous substance in the absorbent article and a second class acts on nose receptors. The classes of odor control materials may be selected to provide a synergistic effect in terms of malodor reduction.

Abstract: An absorbent article comprising a cyclodextrin complex comprising cyclodextrin and at least two components complexed with said cyclodextrin, wherein said at least two components are: a) a menthol family compounds b) an ionone. The absorbent articles of the invention are effective in preventing malodors associated with their use and do not exhibit perceptible odor before use.

Abstract: An absorbent article comprises a topsheet, a backsheet, an absorbent core disposed between the topsheet and backsheet, and a cyclodextrin complex that is disposed in a layer of the absorbent article that is closer to the body-facing surface of the absorbent article than the absorbent core. The cyclodextrin complex comprises cyclodextrin and at least three components complexed with the cyclodextrin.

Abstract: An absorbent article comprises a topsheet, a backsheet, an absorbent core disposed between the topsheet and backsheet, and a cyclodextrin complex comprising cyclodextrin and at least three components complexed with the cyclodextrin. The absorbent article has a Total Headspace Area at Time 0 Minutes of no greater than about 0.50×108, a Total Headspace Area at Time 30 Minutes of at least about 1.00×108, and a Total Headspace Area at Time 240 Minutes of at least about 2.70×108, as measured by the Headspace Test Method.
