Definitions
- This invention relates to a compostable disposable absorbing product which can be disposed of essentially by composting and can be used suitably for binding fluid or moisture in different connections and especially for binding of human and animal excretions.
- This kind of a product can be, for example, a sleeping underlay or an examination underlay, a diaper, a gauze bandage or a sanitary towel or the like, and it has a fluid well -permeable inner surface layer to be placed next to human or animal body or another object to be treated, a potentially fluid impermeable outer surface layer and between the above-mentioned surface layers, a fluid absorbing, distributing and binding intermediate layer that can consist of one or more layers.
- the product can be used as an underlayer for improving durability and transportation of foods.
- the layer that binds excre- tions can comprise, for example, creped paper, soft tissue, cotton wadding, viscose wadding or grains formed of cellulose fibres, but in addition it can contain different components that improve absorbing capacity, such as paper, different fibres or peat, or other fluid binding materials such as so called superabsorbents .
- This layer that binds excretions is usually inserted between the fluid impermeable outer surface layer and the fluid permeable inner surface layer.
- used disposable diapers have been recognised to be a major waste problem in dumping areas because the diapers do not compost even after longer periods of time.
- the waste problem is worsened by the fact that used disposable diapers and underlayers are delivered to the dumping areas closed in ordinary plastic bags and/or sacks.
- disposable absorbing products in the market at present have the disadvantage of not binding sufficiently smell originating from human and animal excretions.
- the object of the present invention is to provide a product without the aforementioned disadvantages.
- the object of the present invention is to provide a disposable absorbing product that can be used for binding fluid or moisture in different occasions and especially for binding human and animal excretions that binds at the same time the smell originating from excretions and that can be disposed of properly by composting.
- a compostable disposable absorbing product such as a diaper can preferably be made by forming the fluid absorbing intermedi- ate layer from one or more layers that contain at least fluff pulp and poorly decomposed bog peat .
