A recently granted patent (Publication Number: US11963857B2) discloses an innovative absorbent article designed to enhance odor control. The article comprises an absorber, a liquid impervious resin film covering the absorber, and an exterior nonwoven fabric. A key feature of this invention is the inclusion of a cellulose nanofiber layer between the resin film and the nonwoven fabric at specific intervals. This cellulose nanofiber layer, capable of interacting with odors in the surrounding environment, is directly attached to the resin film. Additionally, the resin film is bonded to the nonwoven fabric using a hot melt adhesive, excluding the areas where the cellulose nanofiber layer is present.

Furthermore, the patent details the specific characteristics of the exterior nonwoven fabric, including fiber fineness, basis weight, and thickness. The cellulose nanofiber layer is strategically placed in certain portions of the absorbent article, such as the dorsal side, to optimize its odor-controlling properties. The average fiber width of the cellulose nanofibers and the quantity of cellulose nanofibers in the layer are also specified in the claims. Overall, this patented absorbent article aims to provide improved odor management through the strategic integration of cellulose nanofibers within its structure, offering a potential solution for enhanced user comfort and hygiene in various applications.
