International Classification:

A61F 13/15
A61F 13/84

US Classification:

604367, 604360, 60438501

Abstract:

A disposable garment generally has a liner, an outer cover, and a system for removing water vapor from an environment adjacent the wearer of the garment. A vapor permeable first container of the system contains a humidity reducing agent whereby the presence of humid air and the humidity reducing agent in the first container results in a liquid solution being formed therein. A second container of the system is in fluid communication with the first container for receiving liquid solution formed in the first container. The second container is at least in part liquid impermeable to retain therein liquid solution received from the first container.

US Classification:

604364, 604359, 604360

Abstract:

Absorbent articles having enhanced absorption of bodily exudates are disclosed. The absorbent articles comprise a bodily exudate modifying agent and a skin care formulation. The bodily exudate modifying agent is capable of reducing the viscosity of bodily exudates such as feces and menses. The skin care formulation comprises a bodily exudate modifying agent neutralizer to neutralize the possible negative effects on skin barrier function caused by the bodily exudate modifying agents coming into direct contact with the wearer's skin.
