Definitions

  • the present invention relates to absorbent articles such as disposable diapers.
  • absorbent articles it is common to use an absorbent body made by mixing and aggregating pulp fibers and highly absorbent polymer particles, and in order to improve the shape retention during and after manufacturing, such absorbents are generally built into the absorbent element by wrapping a wrapping sheet made of crepe paper or the like around them (see, for example, Patent Documents 1 and 2).
  • the absorbent element of an absorbent article is sandwiched between the legs and receives forces in various directions from both sides in the width direction due to leg movements such as walking, so while a good fit in the crotch area is required, shape retention is also required to prevent the absorbent body from losing its shape through kinking or cracking.
  • the absorbent element of a disposable diaper is also required to ensure absorption performance in the crotch area.
  • wrapping nonwoven fabric a finely woven nonwoven fabric
  • wrapping nonwoven fabric there is a problem in that when the bottom of the grooves formed on the surface of the absorbent element is run over with a finger, the highly absorbent polymer particles give off a gritty feeling. If the user feels this gritty feeling, it can lead to a worsening wearing experience and a negative impact on the product's image, and this is undesirable.
  • the main objective of the present invention is to prevent the gritty feel of the superabsorbent polymer particles from being transmitted to the user when using a wrapped nonwoven fabric.
  • the absorbent article that solves the above problems is as follows:
  • the garment has a crotch portion and a front portion and a rear portion extending forward and rearward from the crotch portion, an absorbent element having an absorbent body provided at a position including the crotch area and a wrapping nonwoven fabric wrapping the absorbent body;
  • the absorbent body has a layer formed by mixing and accumulating pulp fibers and highly absorbent polymer particles,
  • the absorbent element has a lattice-like continuous groove extending from the surface of the absorbent element to the absorbent body and having a bottom compressed in the thickness direction, The groove has an intersection portion and a non-intersection portion located between adjacent intersection portions, and in at least a part of the surface area of the absorbent element, the thickness of the bottom portion is gradually or continuously increased from the center of the non-intersection portion in the longitudinal direction toward the intersection portion.
  • An absorbent article characterized by:
  • the superabsorbent polymer particles are located at the bottom of the grooves, which is far from the skin, that is, at a location that is difficult for the user to touch directly or indirectly via another sheet, so that the sensation of the superabsorbent polymer particles is basically difficult for the user to feel.
  • the packaging nonwoven fabric is pulled in two directions at the corners facing the intersections at the bottom of the grooves, making the corners particularly thin, and as a result, the intersections at the bottom of the grooves are more likely to come into direct or indirect contact with the skin than the non-intersections.
  • the thickness of the bottom is gradually or continuously increased from the longitudinal center of the non-intersecting portion toward the intersecting portion (i.e., the degree of compression of the bottom is reduced from the longitudinal center of the non-intersecting portion toward the intersecting portion, and the density of the bottom is reduced), thereby suppressing the reduction in thickness of the corners facing the intersecting portions of the bottoms of the grooves, and making it difficult for the intersecting portions of the bottoms of the grooves to come into contact with the skin of the user. Therefore, compared to when the thickness of the bottoms of the grooves is almost constant, the gritty feeling of the superabsorbent polymer particles is not easily transmitted to the user.
  • the basis weight of the pulp fibers in the absorbent body is 100 to 450 g/ m2 , the weight ratio of pulp fibers to superabsorbent polymer particles in the absorbent body is 30:70 to 70:30;

  • the thickness of the bottom portion at the intersection is 1.4 to 6 times the thickness of the bottom portion at the center in the longitudinal direction of the non-intersection portion.
  • the material composition of the absorbent body and the degree of compression of the bottom of the groove can be determined as appropriate, but it is preferable that they are within the range of this embodiment.

  • the dimensions and shapes of the grooves etc. can be appropriately determined, but when they are formed in a diagonal lattice pattern as in this embodiment, the absorbent body is excellent in shape retention and flexibility as well as in liquid diffusion, which is preferable. However, when the grooves are formed in the pattern of this embodiment, the thickness reduction at the corners facing the intersections of the bottoms of the grooves is particularly small, which is preferable.

Therefore, it is preferable to use a wrapped nonwoven fabric that is sufficiently thin and easy to stretch as in this embodiment, and that has a dense meltblown layer.
  • the gritty feel of the superabsorbent polymer particles is likely to be transmitted to the user, but by having the above-mentioned characteristics (a) and (b), it is possible to improve the shape retention and flexibility of the absorbent body while suppressing the gritty feel of the superabsorbent polymer particles from being transmitted to the user.

Also, if the fiber structure of the wrapping nonwoven fabric is sparse, the superabsorbent polymer particles will be easy to escape. Therefore, it is preferable to use a wrapping nonwoven fabric that is sufficiently thin and easy to stretch as in this embodiment, and that has a dense meltblown layer. These are as described above.
  • the superabsorbent polymer particles may escape when the surface of the packaged nonwoven fabric is subjected to frictional force at the intersection of the grooves and its vicinity.

In particular, a weight ratio of pulp fibers:superabsorbent polymer particles of 50:50 to 65:35 is preferable because the absorbent body 56 is excellent in shape retention, absorption speed, and ease of forming grooves 53 described below, and the risk of the superabsorbent polymer particles escaping is low.
  • the superabsorbent polymer particles are present approximately uniformly throughout the absorbent body 56, but in order to prevent the superabsorbent polymer particles from escaping to the front side, it is preferable that the content of the superabsorbent polymer particles decreases stepwise or continuously from the back side to the front side, and in particular, as shown in FIG. 19, a covering layer 56c in which only pulp fibers are accumulated is provided so as to cover the surface of the absorbent body 56.
