Zusammenfassung:The invention features a disposable absorbent article including a thermoplastic composition applied in a full coat layer (i.e. a layer with 100% coverage) as a discrete shape to either the top sheet or to a component of the absorbent core (i.e. core or core wrap). The discrete shape is strategically located to decrease the likelihood of leaks in the desired location. The thermoplastic composition serves as a leak barrier to prevent bodily fluids and solids (i.e. urine, stool, menstrual flow, wound seepage) from leaking from the absorbent core.
