ABSTRACT:
An absorbent article includes an absorbent pad and an outer cover. A release agent is applied to one of the outer surface of the absorbent pad and the inner surface of the outer cover. The release agent prevents at least a portion of the outer cover from adhering to the absorbent pad. In embodiments where the outer cover is extensible in a cross-direction and/or a longitudinal direction, the release agent prevents the absorbent pad from resisting mobility of the outer cover. Thus the absorbent pad has substantially no adhesion to the outer cover where the release agent is applied. Therefore, tearing of the absorbent pad and damage to, or release, of superabsorbent material from the absorbent pad during extension of the outer cover, is prevented. The release agent can be a silicon-active agent or a powder material having properties that prevent adhesion between adhesive and a forming tissue of the absorbent pad, or the outer cover.
