Abstract: An acquisition member for use in disposable absorbent articles. The acquisition member including a multitude of fibers and a latex binder and having a void volume of at least 7 cubic centimeter per gram in the temperature range from 20° C. to 40° C. The latex binder may be a dispersion of a polymer in an essentially aqueous medium. The polymer is capable of forming a film having a tan ? value at 40° C. that is not greater than its tan ? value at 20° C.

Abstract: The present invention relates to absorbent articles, such as diapers and sanitary napkins, and acquisition members useful for such articles. More specifically, the invention relates to an acquisition member comprising a multitude of fibers and a latex binder, the liquid acquisition member having a void volume of at least 7 cubic centimeter per gram in the temperature range from 20° C. to 40° C., the binder comprising a dispersion of a polymer substance in an essentially aqueous medium, the polymer substance being capable of forming a film, said film having a tan ? value, as defined herein, at 20° C. and at 40° C., wherein the tan ? value at 40° C. is not greater than said tan ? value at 20° C.

Abstract: A liquid acquisition layer having a multitude of fibers and a binder is useful in a variety of absorbent articles, such as diapers and sanitary napkins. The liquid acquisition layer has a caliper which decreases in response to external pressure and increases upon removal of said external pressure. The increase in caliper is measured by a recovery value, wherein the liquid acquisition layer recovery value at 45° C. is at least 65% of the recovery value at 20° C.
