摘要：

Disposable diaper having a moisture absorbent fluff pad which is contoured in the crotch area and which is disposed between a facing sheet and a backing sheet, said facing sheet being adapted to contact the body of a child. Both the facing sheet and backing sheet have a basis weight in the range of approximately 1.0-2.0 ounces per square yard, and each are comprised of a batt of moisture-absorbent, self-sustaining, adhesively bonded, intermingled cellulosic fibers. The outer surface of the facing and backing sheets each have a pattern defined by ridges and valleys extending over substantially the entire surface of the batt, the density of the sheets in the regions of said valleys being greater than the density of the sheets in the regions of said ridges. A method for manufacturing the facing sheet and backing sheet of the disposable diaper by forming a randomly arranged, intermingled cellulosic fibrous batt having a basis weight of approximately 1.0 ounces per square yard, passing said batt through a nip defined between a patterned roll and a moistened rubber roll to provide a pattern in one surface of the batt and raise a nap on the other surface, spraying opposite surfaces of said batt with adhesive, drying said adhesive and setting said adhesive.
