Abstract

See full text

A disposable absorbent article for personal wear has a generally liquid permeable liner adapted for contiguity with the wearer's skin, and an outer cover. An absorbent body lies between the liner and the outer cover for absorbing liquid body waste. A surge layer lies between the liner and the absorbent body for receiving liquid body waste penetrating the liner and for subsequently releasing liquid body waste to the absorbent body. The surge layer has an inner surface, an outer surface generally facing the absorbent body and an opening extending from its inner surface toward its outer surface. A flow control layer between the liner and the absorbent body at least retards the flow of liquid body waste from the surge layer opening to the absorbent body to facilitate a prolonged feeling of wetness against the wearer's skin upon the release of liquid body waste into the article.
