Zusammenfassung: | A breathable laminate having biaxial elastic stretch, cloth-like aesthetics, and a fluid barrier is formed by bonding a breathable elastic film to a nonwoven facing material. The facing material can be inherently machine direction and cross direction stretchable, or can be necked to impart cross direction stretchability, and can be creped or crimped to impart machine direction stretchability. Alternatively, machine direction stretchability of the laminate can be achieved by bonding the elastic film in a pre-stretched condition to the facing material. The breathable laminate is particularly useful as an outer cover for diapers and other personal care products. |
