Abstract:

A chlorine free disposable diaper having a multi-layered diaper assembly has an exterior layer comprising a non-woven material having a planar, soft, cloth-like surface layer. A core layer is provided and is made of non-chlorine bleached material for holding waste materials within the disposable diaper. A containment layer is coupled to a first side and a second side of the core layer. The containment layer is used for containing the waste material in the core layer and away from skin of a wearer. A distribution layer is coupled to the containment layer. The distribution layer is used for evenly distributing waste material to the core layer. An interior layer is coupled to the distribution layer. The interior layer is made of a non-woven liquid permeable material.

Abstract:

A chlorine free disposable diaper has a main body having an open top area through which a body of an individual wearing the diaper is positioned and a pair of side openings. An individual side opening is formed on opposing side surfaces of the main body for positioning a leg of the individual wearing the diaper. The main body has a multi-layered diaper assembly. The multi-layered diaper assembly has an exterior layer comprising a non-woven material having a planar, soft, cloth-like surface layer. A core layer is provided and is made of non-chlorine bleached material for holding waste materials within the disposable diaper. A containment layer is coupled to a first side and a second side of the core layer. The containment layer is used for containing the waste material in the core layer and away from skin of a wearer.

US Classification:

Abstract:

The present invention is directed to an improved disposable diaper and method therefor. The disposable diaper achieves significant fluid absorbency through a wadding batt layer consisting solely of a combination of wood pulp and cotton pulp, rather than through a wadding batt layer comprising wood pulp and a superabsorbent polymer. In this fashion, the disposable diaper minimizes skin irritation that may be caused during rewetting when body waste fluids contacting the superabsorbent polymers carry a portion thereof back out through the diapers into contact with the skins of babies or children using the diapers. The disposable diaper also minimizes skin irritation caused when both the exterior portion of a diaper contacts a child's skin or the skin of a person touching the diaper, by the use of an outer and inner surface layer of a soft, cloth-like, non-woven bond material such as polyester.
