Abstract

See full text

An absorbent disposable sanitary product such as a disposable baby diaper has an absorbent core and a multi-ply body-contacting topsheet. The construction of the diaper reduces raw material consumption and also waste at the source of manufacture and, therefore, is environmentally attractive. One of the plys of the topsheet contacts the body but not the core, and another contacts the absorbent core, as well as the body, with a space between the plys. The body-contacting ply has a plurality of upstanding cuffs which improve fecal containment, and the space between the plys reduces wet-back. The thickness of the multi-ply body-contacting topsheet is less than the thickness of conventional, single ply, nonwoven topsheets.
