| abstract |
The present disclosure is directed, in part, to absorbent article comprising a liquid permeable topsheet, a liquid impermeable backsheet, a lateral axis defining a front region on a first side of the lateral axis and a back region on a second side of the lateral axis, and an absorbent core positioned at least partially intermediate the liquid permeable topsheet and the liquid impermeable backsheet. The liquid permeable topsheet may comprise a first zone situated primarily in the front region and having a substantially transferrable chemical treatment and a second zone situated primarily in the back region and having the substantially transferrable chemical treatment. A basis weight of the substantially transferrable chemical treatment may be greater in the second zone than in the first zone. |
