Zusammenfassung:Absorbent structures and methods of manufacture are disclosed. In one embodiment, an absorbent structure may comprise a first layer, a second layer, and a mixture of particles and adhesive disposed therebetween, the superabsorbent particles being disposed at greater than 400 gsm and less than 600 gsm, and the adhesive being disposed at greater than 4% and less than 5%, by weight, of the weight of the superabsorbent particles. The adhesive may form a three-dimensional mesh network comprising network adhesive filaments with the superabsorbent particles immobilized within the mesh network, and the network adhesive filaments extending substantially throughout a three-dimensional space defined by the network adhesive filaments and the superabsorbent particles, and wherein the absorbent structure has a SAM Capture Value greater than or equal to 98, according to the SAM Capture Test Method.
