Abstract

A disposable absorbent article may include a chassis that includes a topsheet, a backsheet, and an absorbent core disposed between the topsheet and the backsheet; and a leg gasketing system. The leg gasketing system may include an inner cuff and an outer cuff; the inner cuff may include an inner cuff folded edge and an inner cuff material edge and the outer cuff may include an outer cuff folded edge and an outer cuff material edge such that the web of material is folded laterally inward to form the outer cuff folded edge and folded laterally outward to form the inner cuff folded edge. The disposable absorbent article also includes five areas, wherein the first area is more breathable than each of the second area and the third area, and wherein the first area is less breathable than each of the fourth area and the fifth area.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to absorbent articles (e.g., diapers, adult incontinence pads, feminine hygiene pads) having improved leg cuffs for a more garment-like article and improved functional characteristics (e.g., reduced leakage, Confining feces). Background technique [0002] It has long been known that absorbent articles such as conventional absorbent articles (e.g., diapers, adult incontinence products, feminine hygiene pads) provide the benefit of receiving and containing urine and / or other body exudates (e.g., feces, fluid, a mixture of feces and urine, a mixture of menstrual fluid and urine, etc.). To effectively contain bodily exudates, the article should provide a snug fit around the waist and legs of the wearer. [0003] Current diaper designs include in many cases the use of barrier leg cuffs to prevent leakage of body exudates and outer cuffs that provide a cover over the barrier leg cuffs to minimize exudates Visibility through t...
