| titleOfInvention | Absorbent articles having improved surfactant-treated hydrophilic topsheets |
| abstract | The present invention provides an absorbent article having a topsheet treated with a silicone-based surfactant to impart hydrophilicity. The absorbent article preferably includes a first, apertured, macroscopically expanded, three-dimensional, polymeric topsheet and preferably includes a second, apertured, macroscopically expanded, three-dimensional polymeric topsheet underlying the first topsheet. The multiple topsheets provide improved masking of bodily fluids absorbed and retained by the absorbent core. The first and second topsheets preferably include surfactants which impart hydrophilicity to differing degrees, and which preferably are selected from diverse surfactant categories. The use of a silicone-based surfactant imparts improved tactile qualities to the wearer-contacting surface of the first topsheet in comparison with non-silicone-based surfactants. These characteristics of the silicone-based surfactant provide improved dryness and cleanliness of appearance through low retention of fluid material at or near the surface of the topsheet itself and promoting fluid movement along the wetted surfaces and downward into the absorbent core. |
