ABSTRACT:
A liquid-permeable, nonwoven web is disclosed which is useful as a bodyside liner for an absorption article, particularly baby diapers, incontinent garments and feminine care products. The nonwoven web contains at least 3 layers of thermoplastic filaments which are bonded together. The filaments have a denier of between about 3 to 15. The web has a basis weight of between about 0.5 to 1.0 ounces per square yard and a length of fiber per unit volume of between about 100 to 400 meters per cubic centimeter. A web constructed according to the above description provides good masking properties for body exudate, especially menstrual fluid, which comes in contact with it. The web also permits a rapid passage of human exudate therethrough into an adjacent absorbent where it can be retained.
