Abstract: A feminine hygiene article comprising a film having at least a first layer and an optional second layer, the first layer comprising at least 25 wt. %, based on the total weight of the first layer, of an ethylene acrylate copolymer and less than 75 wt. %, based on the total weight of the first layer, of a polyolefin is disclosed. The first layer may have a gloss measured by ASTM D2457 at 45° C. below 30% and a drapeability measured according to WSP 90.3 less than or equal to 10.0 gf in both the machine or cross direction. The ethylene acrylate copolymer may contain from 16-35 wt. %, based on the total weight of the ethylene acrylate copolymer, acrylate. A feminine hygiene article comprising a soft film of non plastic appearance but with high tensile strength, low elongation along with high tear and puncture resistance, and high modulus can thus be obtained.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are feminine hygiene articles and multilayer film structures. According to one or more embodiments disclosed herein, a feminine hygiene article may include a feminine hygiene pad including an absorbent body, an adhesive layer positioned on at least a surface of the absorbent body, and a pouch wrap in contact with the adhesive layer of the feminine hygiene pad. The pouch wrap may include a release layer in direct contact with the adhesive layer. The release layer may include a polymer composition including low density polyethylene covalently bonded to polydimethylsiloxane.
