What are the raw materials in adult diapers？

Do you know about adult diaper raw material?

Adult diapers are made from several raw materials, each contributing to the absorbency, comfort, and overall functionality of the product. Here's a breakdown of the main diaper raw material commonly used in the production of adult diaper:

1. Top Sheet (Nonwoven Fabric)

Material: Typically made from polypropylene or a combination of polypropylene and polyethylene fibers.

2. Acquisition Layer (Optional in Some Diapers)

Material: Often made from a nonwoven fabric or air-laid paper.

3. Absorbent Core

The absorbent core is the key component that absorbs and holds urine. It consists of several materials:

Fluff Pulp (Wood Pulp):

Material: Primarily made from wood fibers (cellulose).

Super Absorbent Polymer (SAP):

Material: SAP is a polymer, often sodium polyacrylate.

Other Fibers:

Materials like polyester and polyethylene may also be added to increase the strength, flexibility, and leak resistance of the core.

4. Distribution Layer

Material: Nonwoven fabric (similar to the top sheet) or sometimes a perforated film.

5. Back Sheet (Outer Layer)

Material: Typically made from polyethylene film or breathable films.

6. Elastic Waistbands & Leg Cuffs

Material: Spandex or polyurethane for elasticity, sometimes combined with nonwoven fabrics.

7. Adhesive Tapes/Straps

Material: Typically hot-melt adhesives or hook-and-loop fasteners (like Velcro).

8. Perfumed or Skin Care Additives (Optional)

Material: Aloe vera, Vitamin E, or antibacterial agents.

9. Other Materials (Optional)

Antimicrobial Agents: Sometimes included to reduce the growth of bacteria and prevent odor.

Breathable Film: Modern adult diapers often feature breathable films that allow moisture vapor to escape while still preventing leaks.

Each of these materials plays a crucial role in making the adult diaper functional, comfortable, and effective for managing incontinence.
