example

[0176] In a non-limiting example, the belt portion of the present disclosure utilizes a first substrate of about 10 gsm nonwoven material supplied by Avgol, Israel under the trade designation XY-S70-26. The second substrate of the belt portion used a 45 gsm nonwoven material supplied under the tradename NW8019.000 by Mitsui, Japan. Elastic strands having a linear density of about 680 dtex were supplied by Hyosung, Korea under the tradename Creora, which were adhered to the first substrate using H2401 adhesive from Bostik, Wisconsin, USA. The first textured region of the background pattern was formed by spacing the elastic strands at about 7 mm apart before combining the first and second substrates and by applying a Nordson Universal glue applicator and a Nordson sure-wrap glue nozzle to the waistband of the absorbent article. formed in part. The second textured region of the macroscopic pattern is formed by applying the H2401 adhesive to the second substrate prior to combinin...

Abstract

An absorbent article comprises first and second substrates and one or more elastic elements disposed at least partially intermediate the substrates. The second substrate is attached to the first substrate and/or to portions of the elastic elements. The absorbent article comprises an adhesive having a first and second pattern of elements disposed on first substrate, and first and second texture zones. The first texture zone comprises a first portion of the substrates, a first portion of the elastic elements, and the first pattern of elements of the adhesive and forms a background pattern in the first portion of the substrates. The second texture zone comprises a second portion of the substrates, a second portion of the one or more elastic elements, and the second pattern of elements of the adhesive and forms a macro pattern in the second portion of the substrates.

Description

technical field [0001] The present disclosure generally relates to absorbent articles having textured regions forming patterns, and more particularly, to absorbent articles having textured regions forming background patterns and macroscopic patterns. Background technique [0002] Infants, children and other incontinent sufferers wear disposable absorbent articles such as diapers to receive and contain urine and other bodily exudates. Taped diapers are commonly used for infants and young children, while training pants or pull-on diapers have been commonly used for older children (eg, 3-5 years) or other incontinent sufferers who are able to walk and are often toilet trained. Many disposable absorbent articles include some type of texture or printed graphics for aesthetic purposes on a portion of the garment-facing surface or the backsheet or the wearer-facing surface or its topsheet. Textures are often irregular and generally do not provide aesthetic appearance, fit, and com...
