Absorbent article

An absorbent article(15) is described, such as a sanitary napkin, which has an absorbent means(20) and a substantially non-absorbent resilient layer(19) adjacent to the absorbent means. The absorbent means(20) is sufficiently stiff to resist twisting of the absorbent article during use. The resilien...

Zusammenfassung:	An absorbent article(15) is described, such as a sanitary napkin, which has an absorbent means(20) and a substantially non-absorbent resilient layer(19) adjacent to the absorbent means. The absorbent means(20) is sufficiently stiff to resist twisting of the absorbent article during use. The resilient layer(19) is sufficiently resilient to resist bunching during use. As a result, the absorbent article(15) resists both twisting and bunching. The absorbent article(15) has zones which vary in caliper, stiffness and absorbency. A central absorbent zone is thickest in caliper, more absorbent than the other zones and is stiffer than the other zones. An adjacent zone is less thick in caliper, less absorbent and less stiff. A peripheral zone, located near the outer side edges, is least thick in caliper, least absorbent and least stiff.
