Assignee:
The Procter & Gamble Company - Cincinnati OH
International Classification:
B32B 328
US Classification:
428152
Abstract:
A soft web material which exhibits an elastic-like behavior along at least one axis when subjected to an applied and subsequently released elongation. The web material includes a strainable network having a plurality of first regions and a plurality of second regions of the same material composition. A portion of the first regions extend in a first direction while the remainder extend in a second direction perpendicular to the first direction to intersect one another. The first regions form a boundary completely surrounding the second regions. The second regions include a plurality of raised rib-like elements.

Assignee:
The Procter & Gamble Company - Cincinnati OH
International Classification:
C08F 800
US Classification:
525285
Abstract:
A class of polymer precursor materials, which, under appropriate conditions, react to form cross-linked polymers, is disclosed. These materials contain a backbone segment, preferably a polyacrylate, and have pendant therefrom (1) reactive mono- or disubstituted olefinic groups, such as vinyl or allyl itaconate, and (2) water-solubilizing groups, such as the half ester of maleic acid. This class of materials, especially when combined with specifically-defined oxygen-activated catalyst systems, provides water-based paint compositions which exhibit film formation, strength and durability characteristics comparable to those of the best solvent-based paint formulations.

International Classification:
A01K 1015
US Classification:
119 1
Abstract:
Solid absorbent materials, having adsorbed thereto from about 1000 ppm to about 10,000 ppm of a undecylenic acid, when used as animal litter products, effectively prevent the development of urine odors. Absorbent pads having absorbed thereto from about 5000 ppm to about 100,000 ppm of the undecylenic acid when used as liners in litter boxes likewise effectively control odor development.

Assignee:
The Proctor & Gamble Company - Cincinnati OH
International Classification:
A61F 1315
US Classification:
604390
Abstract:
A disposable absorbent article having an improved internal reinforcement strip comprising a paper (i. e. , cellulosic) material. The disposable absorbent article has an adhesive tape fastening system preferably comprising tape tabs disposed adjacent each longitudinal edge and a landing member for refastenably adhering to the tape tabs. The landing member consists of a portion of the external surface of the backsheet. An internal reinforcement strip comprising a paper material is positioned so as to correspond with at least the landing zone. The reinforcement strip is joined to the internal surface of the backsheet. The use of paper for the material of the reinforcement strip provides a low cost yet effective reinforcement of the landing zone and an excellent substrate for printing of indicia that will aid in proper positioning of the absorbent article.
