  The frontal tape loop of a diaper is one of the important parts of a diaper. It is usually used to fix the position of the diaper on the baby's body to ensure that the diaper is not easily displaced or loosened. The material and structural design of the front waist tape play a vital role in the comfort, fit and performance of diapers. According to different materials and surface treatments, the front waist tape can be divided into several types, each with different characteristics and advantages. The following are several common types of front waist tape: 1. PP diaper frontal tape Material characteristics: Polypropylene (PP) is a common synthetic plastic with high strength, rigidity and wear resistance, suitable for use in places where strong bonding is required. PP front waist tape usually uses non-woven fabric or film material, which is heat-pressed or bonded to form a solid waist tape. The surface is usually smooth, which is suitable for automatic bonding during the production process. Advantages: Strong adhesion: Polypropylene material can provide strong bonding to ensure that the front waist tape fits firmly on the baby's waist. Lower price: The cost of polypropylene material is low, which can reduce the production cost of diapers. Strong wear resistance: suitable for long-term use, not easy to break or fall off. Disadvantages: Since polypropylene itself does not have good softness, it is sometimes less comfortable and may cause friction to babies with sensitive skin. 2. Knitted frontal tape for diaper Material features: The mesh frontal tape usually uses a combination of polypropylene non-woven fabric and mesh material. The mesh structure makes the tape more breathable while maintaining adhesion. The mesh material itself is relatively thin, soft, and has less friction on the skin. Advantages: Better breathability: The mesh structure can increase air circulation, reduce stuffiness, and help babies stay dry. Soft and comfortable: The mesh material is softer, reduces friction on the skin, and improves comfort. High strength: The mesh structure can provide good resistance to stretching and deformation. Disadvantages: Compared with traditional flat materials, the production process is more complicated, so the cost may be slightly higher. 3. Brush frontal tape Material features: Suede frontal tape usually uses non-woven fabric with fluff on the surface (such as polypropylene non-woven fabric), which makes the surface of the frontal tape softer. Suede structure can enhance the comfort of the waist tape and reduce irritation to the baby's skin. Advantages: Very soft: Suede material is soft and suitable for baby's sensitive skin, which can provide higher comfort. Skin-friendly: Suede material can better fit the baby's waist curve and reduce the discomfort caused by friction. Good breathability: Although suede material looks thicker, its breathability is usually still good. Disadvantages: May be easy to pilling: Because the surface is suede material, after multiple stretching and friction, some pilling may occur, affecting the appearance. High cost: The production cost of suede material is relatively high, so the price of this type of diapers may be more expensive. 4. Nonwoven frontal tape Material features: Nonwoven frontal tape is generally made of polypropylene (PP) or other synthetic fibers, with a smooth surface, which can be processed by heat pressing or bonding. Nonwoven materials have good air permeability and softness, and the production process is simple and the cost is low. Advantages: Good air permeability: The structure of nonwoven fabrics is usually loose, which can provide a certain air permeability and help maintain dryness. Higher comfort: Compared with traditional plastic materials, nonwoven fabrics have certain advantages in softness and comfort. High cost performance: The production cost of nonwoven frontal tape is low, which can provide reasonable performance and low price. Disadvantages: Weak adhesion: Compared with PP frontal tape, the adhesion of nonwoven fabrics may be slightly insufficient, and a stronger adhesive may be required. Low durability: Compared with mesh or suede frontal tape, nonwoven fabrics may be less durable and strong after long-term use. Summary Each type of frontal tape material has its specific advantages and disadvantages. Manufacturers usually choose the right material based on product positioning, target market and cost requirements.

The production process of SMMS non woven fabrics mainly includes the following steps: 1.Production of spunbond layer and meltblown layer: Firstly, the spunbond layer and meltblown layer are produced separately through the spunbond method and meltblown method. The spunbond layer is composed of continuous filaments, which have good fracture strength and elongation; The melt blown layer is composed of continuous ultra fine fibers, which have good barrier effects on moisture, bacteria, dust, etc.   2.Online Composite: On the same production line, the first layer of fiber web is formed by spraying long fibers from the spunbond spinneret, then the second layer of fiber web is formed by the melt blown die, and finally the third layer of fiber web is formed by the spunbond spinneret. These three layers of fiber mesh are bonded by a hot rolling machine to form raw materials SMMS nonwoven.   3.Post processing: After the composite is completed, white SMMS nonwoven materials still need to undergo post-processing, including cutting, winding and other processes, to finally form the finished product.

ES fiber is one of the most ideal thermal bonding fibers for hot air through nonwoven fabric, mainly used for thermal bonding processing of non-woven fabrics. When the combed fiber network is thermally bonded by hot rolling or hot air penetration, low melting point components form melt adhesion at the intersections of the fibers.   After cooling, non intersection fibers still maintain their original state, which is a form of "point bonding" rather than "zone bonding". Therefore, airthrough nonwoven raw materials have characteristics such as fluffiness, softness, high strength, oil absorption, and blood sucking.   With the development of the market, raw materials of airthrough nonwoven products are widely used in the manufacturing of disposable products with their unique style, such as baby diapers, adult incontinence pads, and fabrics for women's hygiene products.  

The process characteristics of SSMMS non woven fabric for diaper mainly include its multi-layer structure design and production process.‌ 1.Leak guard SSMMS nonwoven fabric consists of four layers: spunbond layer, meltblown layer, spunbond layer, and spunbond layer (an additional spunbond layer is added to the SMS structure). This multi-layer structure design gives SSMMS meltblown non woven multiple superior properties: 2.Multi layer structure design: diaper SSMMS nonwoven raw materials are made by hot rolling four layers of fiber mesh, including two layers of spunbond layer and two layers of melt blown layer. This structure gives the product higher strength and better filtering performance. 3.Spunbond layer: composed of continuous filaments, it has good fracture strength and elongation, and can provide good physical strength and stability. 4.Meltblown layer: composed of ultrafine fibers, it has a good barrier effect on moisture, bacteria, dust, etc., with high water pressure resistance and good breathability. 5.Production process: diaper SSMMS soft non woven materials are formed by hot rolling multiple layers of fiber mesh.

Breathable membrane is an environmentally friendly functional material that is breathable and waterproof against liquids, bacteria, and dust. It is mainly used in personal hygiene and care products, such as sanitary napkins and diapers. Breathable membranes are made by uniformly adding functional inorganic substances to polyolefin raw materials, which are stretched at high magnification to produce micropores, thus possessing breathability and moisture conductivity, as well as good water barrier performance. The environmental characteristics of breathable PE film for diaper are mainly reflected in the following aspects: 1.Environmentally friendly materials: Breathable membranes typically use PE (polyethylene) as a carrier, which is inherently environmentally friendly and does not produce harmful substances during the production process. 2.Functional environmental protection: The breathable diaper film materials can block water and breathe, helping to keep diapers dry and reduce bacterial growth, thereby reducing environmental pollution. 3.Widely used: The breathable polyethylene PE film is not only used in diapers, but also widely used in medical protective clothing, isolation clothing, medical mattresses, etc., demonstrating its wide application value and environmental potential.

The main functions of airlaid paper in sanitary napkins include serving as an absorbent core covering material and adsorbing menstrual blood secretions. Puffed paper, also known as dust-free paper or puffed paper, has the function of moisture absorption and drying, and can play an important role in absorbing and locking water in sanitary napkins. The airlaid paper sanitary napkin use paddles, old news paper, old book writing paper, and yellow core card waste paper as raw materials.  In sanitary napkins, airlaid napkins paper is usually used in combination with high polymer water absorbent resin (SAP). Ultra thin structured sanitary napkins use airlaid paper to wrap SAP polymer composite absorbent paper, while wood pulp structured sanitary napkins use toilet paper to wrap SAP polymer absorbent resin and wood pulp (fluff pulp). This combination enables sanitary napkins to better absorb and lock menstrual blood, keeping the surface dry.  

3D perforated nonwoven is a type of non-woven fabric processed through special techniques, which has various advantages and application scenarios.  ‌The airthrough embossed nonwoven is formed by 3D embossing on the surface of non-woven fabric to create a multi-layered three-dimensional structure. This treatment increases the curved area of the non-woven fabric, thereby improving its breathability and infiltration speed. In addition, embossing hot air nonwoven usually use multiple hydrophilic non-woven fabrics, further enhancing their water absorption and diffusion properties, and reducing the phenomenon of reverse osmosis. 3D embossed non-woven fabric is widely used in various disposable hygiene products, such as sanitary napkins, diapers, training pants, and adult incontinence products. Its unique 3D structure allows liquid to quickly infiltrate, keeping the surface dry and improving the comfort and user experience of the product.

The principle of raw material breathable PE film in diapers is mainly based on the micro porous structure and the humidity gradient pressure difference formed by the difference in water vapor concentration. China diaper backsheet PE film is formed by combining inorganic substances with stretching process to form micro pores with appropriate size and uniform distribution. These micropores allow water vapor to pass through, but prevent liquid from penetrating, thus achieving the functions of breathability and water isolation. Specifically, the manufacturing process of dipaer breathable PE film back sheet involves adding inert fillers to polyethylene (PE) or polypropylene (PP) carriers, followed by film making and stretching processes to form thin films with microporous structures. These micropores allow water vapor to circulate between the two sides of the film, thereby regulating the humidity environment and achieving a breathable effect. In addition, the waterproof performance of breathable membranes depends on pore size and channel length, and is usually measured by water pressure resistance (Δ P). The role of China diaper backsheet PE film mainly includes preventing urine leakage and providing good breathability. The bottom layer of diapers is usually made of PE film or a combination of PE film and non-woven fabric. The use of breathable film allows diapers to remain dry while effectively preventing urine leakage. The breathability of the breathable film enables diapers to better regulate humidity and reduce discomfort for babies during use.

1. Airthrough nonwoven fabric is a non-woven fabric produced by using hot air from a drying device to penetrate the fiber web after short fibers are combed, allowing it to be heated and bonded together. Spunbond nonwoven fabric is a process of extruding and stretching polymers to form continuous filaments, which are then laid into a web. The web is then self bonded, thermally bonded, chemically bonded, or mechanically reinforced to transform into nonwoven fabric. Spunbond non-woven fabric is made of long fibers, but its raw material is plastic slices. 2. Hot air nonwoven topsheet has the characteristics of high fluffiness, good elasticity, soft hand feel, strong warmth retention, and good breathability and permeability. Spunbond non-woven fabric is made by directly spinning polymer particles into a mesh without using fibers, and then heating and pressing them with a rolling mill. It has excellent mechanical properties, such as tensile strength, elongation at break, tear strength, etc. It is very thin, but its softness and breathability are not as good as hot air non-woven fabric. 3. Diapers made from air through bonding nonwoven will feel softer and more comfortable to the touch; Pulling the surface of the diaper, the hot air non-woven fabric can easily pull out the threads. Diapers made from spunbond non-woven fabric are harder to touch and rougher compared to hot air non-woven fabric. Spunbond non-woven fabric is difficult to pull out fibers.

1. Different sealing performance The coverage area of partial lamination backsheet film is relatively small, usually only coating a part of the non-woven surface, so the sealing performance of the entire product is relatively poor. The full lamination film adopts a more comprehensive covering method, which can cover the entire surface of the non-woven fabric, thereby improving the sealing performance of the product.   2. Different breathability performance Due to the fact that center lamination backsheet film is only partially coated with a thin film on the surface, the overall breathability of the product is good, making it more suitable for producing products that require breathability. However, full lamination film back sheet has relatively poor breathability and is only suitable for producing products that require good sealing performance. 3. Different costs Due to the need to cover the entire surface of non-woven fabric with full film, its production cost is relatively high. However, center lamination backsheet film is relatively cheaper because only a portion of the surface needs to be coated. Therefore, when it is necessary to produce low-cost non-woven fabric products, semi film coating technology is generally used.

The coated PE film for baby diaper is a laminated material in which plastic particles are coated on the surface of the paper through a tape casting machine. The main characteristics of this material are oil and water resistance, and it can be heat sealed. Laminated PE backsheet coating film is composed of plastic particles and paper composite. Its main characteristics include: Oil proof: coating lamination film materials can effectively prevent grease from penetrating and keep diapers dry.Waterproof: It can prevent moisture infiltration to a certain extent and keep diapers dry. Modern laminating technology tends to use biodegradable materials such as polylactic acid (PLA), which reduces the environmental impact of disposable diapers after use. Heat sealable: It can be heat sealed under specific conditions, facilitating processing and assembly during the production process. Coated diapers have high physical strength and wear resistance, which can effectively protect the delicate skin of infants and extend the service life of diapers. In short, the application of laminating technology in diapers not only improves product performance and comfort, but also meets the requirements of environmental protection and sustainable development.
