[0001] The present description refers to an absorbent article. TECHNICAL STATUS
[0002] As the basic performance of absorbent articles, such as sanitary napkins and panties linings, has continued to improve with technological developments over many years, the leak after the absorption of waste, such as, menstrual blood has become a less frequent occurrence than in the past. Recent developments are now geared towards absorbent articles with an even higher performance, including a sensation similar to underwear, and the smoothness of the top sheet, even after the absorption of waste, such as menstrual blood. Menstrual blood during menstruation, in particular, may also contain endometrial components, which are highly viscous, and the topsheet must be smooth and stem-free, even after absorption of menstrual blood as highly viscous. Highly viscous menstrual blood usually remains on the top sheet in the form of masses, in general, leaving the user with a visually unpleasant image and therefore from this point of view it is also preferable that the menstrual blood is not highly viscous to remain on the top sheet.
[0003] LPL 1, for example, describes an absorbent article that includes cellulose-based hydrophilic fiber that comprises one or more surfactants selected from the group consisting of alkyl ethers and fatty acid sugar esters in positions other than contact with the skin surface.
[0004] In addition, LPT 2 describes an absorbent article that has a polypropylene glycol material containing a lotion composition on the inner surface of the top sheet (side surface of the garment), the inner surface of the back sheet (side surface of the body), and not the base material between the inner surface of the top sheet and the inner inner surface of the sheet.
[0005] In addition, PLT 3 describes an absorbent article in which a lotion composition for the material containing polypropylene glycol is applied to the outer surface of the top sheet (side surface of the body). Citation list PLT patent literature 1 Unexamined Japanese Patent Publication No. 2008-029830 PLT 2 Unexamined Japanese Patent Publication No. 2010-518918 PLT 3 WO2009 / 102837 Summary of the Invention Technical problem
[0006] According to a PLT 1, however, the inventors noted that an attempt was made to use a "surfactant" to alter the viscosity and surface tension of highly viscous menstrual blood and increase the rate of liquid absorption, but the effect may not be suitable, and it may not be possible to get a smooth sensation on the top sheet without a sticky sensation after the highly viscous menstrual blood has been absorbed. In addition, according to LPT 1, it may be necessary to coat the surfactant as an aqueous solution, and therefore problems from the point of view of productivity may arise when a subsequent drying step is included.
[0007] When the present inventors confirmed the effects of that described in PTLs 2 and 3, it was found that the polypropylene glycol material has different absorptive power, depending on its molecular weight, and that, with the low weight polypropylene glycol materials molecular, a sticky sensation remains and the redness of the blood tends to remain on the top sheet after blood absorption. It has also been found that, with high molecular weight polypropylene glycol materials, the adhesion of the material tends to result in a sticky sensation.
[0008] Therefore, it is an object of the present invention to provide an absorbent article, without a sticky sensation on the topsheet, and with a smooth topsheet, even after the highly viscous menstrual blood has been absorbed.
[0009] It is another object of the invention to provide an absorbent article which is resistant to the residue of highly viscous menstrual blood on the topsheet, and which does not tend to leave the user with a visually unpleasant image. Solution to the problem
[0010] As a result of diligent research aimed at solving the problems described above, the present inventors have found that the problems can be solved by an absorbent article comprising a liquid-permeable topsheet, a liquid-impermeable backsheet and an absorbent body between the liquid-permeable topsheet and the liquid-impermeable backsheet, wherein the liquid-permeable topsheet comprises a blood modifying agent with an IOB of 0.00-0.60, a melting point not exceeding 45 ° C , a water solubility of 0.00-0.05 g in 100 g of water at 25 ° C, and an average molecular weight of less than 1,000. Advantageous Effects of Invention
[0011] The absorbent article of the invention allows menstrual blood to migrate quickly from the upper sheet to the absorbent body, and thus highly viscous menstrual blood does not easily remain on the top sheet, and the top sheet having a smooth sensation without being sticky.
[0012] The absorbent article according to the invention is resistant to highly viscous menstrual blood masses remaining on the top sheet, and does not tend to leave the user with a visually unpleasant image.
[0013] For a better understanding of the invention, detailed reference will be made to it, with respect to the attached drawings, presented in an exemplary and non-limiting character, in which: - FIG. 1 is a plan view of Example 1, showing the region of the superposed sheet containing the blood modifying agent; - FIG. 2 is an electron micrograph of the surface in contact with the skin of a topsheet in a sanitary pad, where the topsheet comprises C2L oil tri-glycerides of fatty acids; FIG. 3 is a pair of photomicrographs of menstrual blood containing and not containing a blood modifying agent; - FIG. 4 is a diagram illustrating a method of measuring surface tension. Description of settings
[0014] The absorbent article of the present description will now be explained in detail [Blood modifying agent]
The blood modifying agent of this invention has an IOB of about 0.00-0.60, a melting point of no more than about 45 ° C, a water solubility of about 0.00- 0.05 g to 25 ° C, and an average molecular weight by weight of less than about 1,000.
[0016] IOB (Inorganic organic balance) is an indicator of hydrophilic-lipophilic balance, and as used here, it is the value calculated by the following formula by Oda et al .: IOB = inorganic value / organic value.
[0017] The inorganic and organic value are based on the organic paradigm described in "organic composite predictions and organic paradigms" by A. Fujita, Kagaku no Rioiki (Japanese Journal of Chemistri), Vol.11, No. 10 (1957) p. 719-725, which is incorporated herein by reference.
[0018] The organic and inorganic values of the large group values, according to Fujita, are summarized in Table 1 below. Table 1

[0019] For example, in the case of a tetradecanoic acid ester that has 14 carbon atoms and dodecyl alcohol that has 12 carbon atoms, the organic value is 520 (CH2, 20 x 26) and the inorganic value is 60 (- COOR, 60 x 1), and therefore IOB = 0.12.
[0020] In the blood modifying agent, the IOB is about 0.00 0.60, preferably about 0-0.50, more preferably about 0-0.40 and even more preferably about 0-0, 30. This is because a lower IOB is associated with greater organism and greater affinity with blood cells.
[0021] As used herein, the term "melting point" refers to a peak temperature for the endothermic peak during conversion from solid to liquid, by measuring with a differential scanning calorimetry analyzer at a rate of temperature rise of 10 ° C / min. The melting point can be measured using a DSC-60 DSC measuring device by the Shimadzu Corp model, for example.
[0022] If the blood-modifying agent has a point of no more than about 45 ° C, it can be liquid or solid at room temperature, or, in other words of melting, the melting point can be any one of about 25 ° C or higher, or less than about 25 ° C, and for example, it can have a melting point of about -5 ° C or about -20 ° C. The reason for a point of no more than about 45 ° C for the blood fusion modifying agent will be explained below.
[0023] The blood modifying agent does not have a lower limit for the melting point, but the vapor pressure is preferably low. The vapor pressure of the modifying agent is preferably about 0.00-0.01 Pa, more preferably about 0.000-0.001 Pa and even more preferably about 0.0000-0.0001 Pa, at 1 atmosphere and at 25 ° C.
[0024] Considering that the absorbent article of the present description is to be used in contact with the human body, the vapor pressure is preferably about 0.00-0.01 Pa, more preferably about 0.000-0.001 Pa and even more preferably about 0.0000-0.0001 Pa, in an atmosphere, at 40 ° C.
[0025] If the vapor pressure is high, gasification can occur during storage and the amount of modifying agent in the blood can be reduced, and can create problems, such as, odor during wear.
[0026] The melting point of the blood modifying agent may be different, depending on the time or the duration of the garment. For example, in areas with a significant atmosphere of no more than about 10 ° C, using a blood modifying agent with a point of no greater than about 10 ° C, may allow the modifying agent to modify the blood of stable in the blood after excretion of menstrual blood, even if it has been cooled by melting at room temperature.
[0027] In addition, when the absorbent article is used for an extended period of time, the melting point of the blood modifying agent is preferably at the highest end of the range of no more than about 45 ° C.
[0028] This is because the blood modifying agent is not easily affected by sweat or friction while wearing the garment and will not be easily migrated, even during prolonged use.
[0029] The solubility of 0.00-0.05 g of water can be measured by adding 0.05 g of sample to 100 g of deionized water at 25 ° C, allowing to stand for 24 hours, and gently stirring if necessary, and then visually assess whether or not the sample has dissolved.
[0030] As used herein, the term "solubility" with respect to water solubility includes cases where the sample completely dissolves in deionized water to form a homogeneous mixture and, in cases where the sample is completely emulsified. As used herein, "completely" means that no mass of the sample remains in the deionized water.
[0031] In the technique described above, the surfaces of the upper sheets are coated with surfactants, in order to alter the surface tension of the blood and promote the rapid absorption of blood. However, because surfactants generally have greater solubility in water, the surfactant-coated topsheet is highly miscible with hydrophilic components (such as blood plasma) in the blood, and therefore, instead, they tend to cause blood on the top sheet. The aforementioned blood modifying agent has low water solubility and, therefore, unlike the surfactants used in the art described above, it does not cause blood residue on the topsheet and allows rapid migration into the absorbent body.
[0032] As used herein, water solubility in 100 g of water at 25 ° C can be simply referred to as "water solubility".
[0033] The blood modifying agent can have water solubility of about 0.00 g. Therefore, the lower limit for blood-modifying agent water solubility is approximately 0.00 g.
[0034] The blood modifying agent has an average molecular weight by weight of less than about 1,000 and, preferably, an average molecular weight by weight of less than about 900. This is because, if the average molecular weight in weight is about 1,000 or more, it can result in the adherence of the blood-modifying agent itself, tending to create a feeling of dislike for the user. In addition, a high average molecular weight by weight tends to result in higher viscosity of the blood modifying agent, and it will be difficult to decrease the viscosity of the blood modifying agent by heating, to a viscosity suitable for the coating. As a result, it will sometimes be necessary to dilute the blood modifying agent with a solvent.
The blood modifying agent preferably has a weight average molecular weight of about 100 or more, and more preferably has a weight average molecular weight of about 200 or more. This is because, if the average molecular weight by weight is low, the vapor pressure can be increased, gasification can occur during storage and the amount of modifying agent in the blood can be reduced, and can create problems, such as, the odor while wearing the garment.
[0036] As used herein, "average molecular weight" includes the concept of a polydispersed compound (for example, a compound produced by step polymerization, an ester formed from a plurality of fatty acids and a plurality of alcohols aliphatic), and a simple compound (for example, an ester formed from a fatty acid and an aliphatic monohydric alcohol), and, a system comprising molecules with a molecular weight of Ni Mi (i = 1, or i = 1, 2 ...), refers to MW determined by the following formula. Mw = ∑NiMi 2 / ∑NiMi
[0037] As used herein, the average molecular weight weights are the values measured by gel permeation chromatography (GPC), based on polystyrene.
[0038] The GPC measurement conditions can be as follows, for example.

[0068] Considering the potential for degradation by oxidation and the like, the pentaerythritol ester and a fatty acid is preferably a pentaerythritol ester and a fatty acid, which is derived from a saturated fatty acid, that is, an ester of pentaerythritol and a saturated fatty acid.

[0083] In addition, in order to decrease IOB and result in greater hydrophobicity, the glycerin ester and a fatty acid is preferably a diester or triester, and more preferably a triester.
[0084] A glycerin triester and a fatty acid is also known as a triglyceride, and examples include triester esters of glycerin and octanoic acid (C8), triester esters of glycerin and decanoic acid (C10), triester esters of glycerin and dodecanoic acid (C12) , glycerin triesters and two or more different fatty acids, and mixtures of the above.

Thus, when the total number of fatty acid carbons in the glycerin and fatty acid triester composition is
[0088] about 12 or greater, the IOB satisfies the condition to be within approximately 0.00 to 0.60.
[0089] Glycerin and fatty acid triesters, being

[0190] [(F) chain hydrocarbons]
[0191] The chain hydrocarbon has a value of 0 and inorganic thus an IOB of 0.00, whereas the solubility in water is also about 0 g, and therefore, if the melting point is not more than about 45 ° C, can be included among the aforementioned blood modifying agents.
[0192] Examples of these include chain hydrocarbons (f1) of the alkane chain, for example, linear and branched alkanes, linear alkanes and alkanes generally include those that have no more than 22 carbon atoms, taking into account the melting point not more than about 45 ° C.
[0193] In consideration of vapor pressure, they generally include those with 13 or more carbon atoms. Branched alkanes generally include those with 22 or more carbon atoms, since their melting points are often lower than linear alkanes, given the same number of carbon atoms.
[0194] Examples of commercially available products include PARLEAM 6 hydrocarbons (NOF Corp.)
[0195] The blood modifying agent has been found to have at least the function of decreasing blood viscosity and surface tension, which will be considered in detail in the examples. Menstrual blood to be absorbed by the absorbent article contains proteins from the endometrial wall, for example, unlike ordinary blood, which act together to bind blood cells, in such a way that the blood cells constitute a Rouleau state. Therefore, menstrual blood to be absorbed by the absorbent article tends to have high viscosity, and, if the top sheet is a non-woven or woven fabric, menstrual blood becomes trapped between the fibers, creating a sticky sensation. residual to the wearer, while menstrual blood also diffuses over the surface of the topsheet and tends to escape.
[0196] In the absorbent article of the present description, the top sheet comprises a blood modifying agent that has been found to have at least the function of decreasing blood viscosity and surface tension and therefore if the top sheet is a non-woven fabric or tissue, the clogging of menstrual blood between the top sheet fibers is reduced and menstrual blood can quickly migrate from the upper sheet to the absorbent body.
[0197] Furthermore, in the absorbent article of the present description, the blood modifying agent has a melting point of no more than about 45 ° C, and therefore either liquid or solid at normal temperature (25 ° C), when it contacts the body fluid at about 30-40 ° C, it liquefies (or is a liquid) and readily dissolves in the body fluid.
[0198] In addition, the blood modifying agent, which has an IOB of about 0.00 to 0.60 and has a high organism readily infiltrates between the blood cells, and is therefore stabilizing the blood cells. blood and can prevent the formation of a Rouleau structure by blood cells.
[0199] Since the blood modifying agent stabilizes blood cells and helps prevent the formation of a Rouleau structure of the blood cells, which facilitates the absorption of menstrual blood by the absorbent body. For example, with an absorbent article comprising a superabsorbent acrylic polymer, or SAP, the absorption of menstrual blood is known to lead to coverage of the surface of SAP by Rouleau-formed and blood-inhibiting globules.
[0200] SAP absorption performance, but presumably blood cell stabilization allows SAP absorption performance to be exposed more easily. In addition, the blood-modifying agent that has a high affinity for erythrocytes protects erythrocyte membranes, and therefore can minimize erythrocyte destruction.
[0201] Any liquid-permeable top sheet, which is normally used in the art, can be used without any special restrictions, and for example, it can be a sheet-like material that has a structure that allows water to permeate, such as , a porous film, fabric, non-woven fabric or the like. The fibers that make up that of a fabric or non-woven fabric can be natural fibers or chemical fibers, with examples of natural fibers including cellulose, such as, cellulose earth and cotton, and examples of chemical fibers, including regenerated cellulose, such as rayon, rayon and cellulose fibrils, semi-synthetic, such as acetate and triacetate, hydrophobic thermoplastic chemical fibers, and hydrophilicized hydrophobic synthetic thermoplastic fibers.
[0202] Examples of chemical thermoplastic hydrophobic fibers include polyethylene (PE), polypropylene (PP) and polyethylene terephthalate (PET) monofilaments, and fibers including PE and PP graft polymers.
[0203] Examples of non-woven fabrics include air through non-woven fabrics, spunbond non-woven fabrics, attachment point, non-woven fabrics, non-woven fabrics, needle spun cord fabrics perforate non-woven fabrics and non-woven fabrics obtained by extrusion , as well as combinations thereof (such as SMS and the like).
[0204] Liquid-impermeable back sheets include films comprising PE and PP, air-permeable films, air-permeable resin resin films bonded to interlaced or non-woven fabric, spun cord fabrics and non-woven layers fabrics multiple, such as SMS. In view of the flexibility of the absorbent article, a low density polyethylene (LDPE) film with a base weight of about 15-30 g / m2, for example, is preferred.
[0205] An embodiment of the absorbent article according to the disclosure may comprise a second sheet between the liquid-permeable top sheet and the absorbent body. The second sheet can be any of the same examples as for the liquid permeable top sheet.
[0206] The first example of the body is an absorbent that has an absorbent core covered with a core shell.
[0207] Examples of components for the absorbent core include hydrophilic fibers, including cellulose, such as ground pulp or cotton, of regenerated cellulose, such as rayon, or rayon fibrils, semi-synthetic cellulose, such as acetate or triacetate, particle polymers, filaments, thermoplastic hydrophobic polymer fibers, chemical and • hydrophilicized thermoplastic chemical hydrophobic fibers, as well as, combinations of the above.
[0208] The absorbent core component can also be a superabsorbent polymer, for example, granules of a sodium acrylate copolymer or the like.
[0209] The core wrap is not particularly restricted, as long as it is a substance that is permeable to liquids and with a barrier property that does not allow permeation. of the absorbent polymer, and can be a fabric or non-woven fabric, for example. The fabric or a non-woven fabric can be made of a natural fiber, chemical fiber, fabric, or the like.
[0210] A second example of an absorbent body is formed from an absorbent sheet or a polymer sheet, with a thickness preferably about 0.3-5.0 mm. The absorbent polymer sheet or sheet can generally be used without any particular restrictions, as long as it is one that can be used on an absorbent article such as a sanitary napkin.
[0211] The modifying agent can be present in the blood anywhere in the planar direction of the top sheet, such as, through the entire top sheet> or the center region, close to the vaginal orifice.
[0212] When the liquid-permeable top sheet is formed from a nonwoven or woven fabric, the blood modifying agent preferably does not fill the voids between the fibers of the nonwoven or woven fabric, and , for example, the blood modifying agent can be attached as droplets or particles on the fiber surface of the nonwoven fabric, or which cover the fiber surfaces. On the other hand, when the liquid-permeable top sheet is formed of a porous film, the blood modifying agent preferably does not fill the holes in the porous film, and, for example, the modifying agent can be blood attached as droplets or particles on the surface of the porous film. This is because, if the blood modifying agent fills the voids between the fibers of the nonwoven or tissue, or fills the holes in the porous film, the migration of the liquid absorbed by the absorbent body can be inhibited.
[0213] The blood modifying agent preferably also has a large surface area, to allow rapid migration to the absorbed liquid, and a blood modifying agent present as droplets or particles, preferably has a small droplet / particle size.
[0214] In an embodiment where the absorbent article has a second sheet, the second sheet may comprise a blood-modifying agent. In addition, according to an embodiment of the absorbent article of the present description, the absorbent body may comprise a blood-modifying agent.
[0215] In this absorbent article, the top sheet comprises the blood modifying agent at a base weight in the range preferably 1-30 g / m2, more preferably 2-20 g / m2 and, more preferably 3-10 g / m2. If the base weight of the blood modifying agent is less than about 1 g / m2, the effect of modifying the blood tends to be insufficient and, if the base weight of the blood modifying agent is increased, the viscosity during wear will tend to be increased.
[0216] When the material to be coated with the blood modifying agent, such as the top sheet, is a non-woven fabric or porous film made of a synthetic resin, it is preferably coated with or mixed with a hydrophilic agent for hydrophilic treatment. If the parent material is hydrophilic, since it is subsequently coated with a modifying agent with a lipophilic IOB of about 0.00-0.60 and of high organicity, dispersed lipophilic regions and hydrophilic regions will not be created scarcely.
[0217] This allows the presumably consistent absorption performance to be displayed for menstrual blood, which consists of hydrophilic components (blood plasma, etc.) and lipophilic components (blood cells, etc.).
[0218] There are no particular restrictions on the method of coating the blood modifying agent, and coating can be carried out with heating as needed, using a non-contact coating, for example, a spiral coating machine, coating by curtain, spray coating or dip coating or a contact coating or the like. The non-contact coating is preferable from the point of view of uniformly dispersing the drop or particulate modifying agent at all, and from the point of view of not causing damage to the material.
[0219] The blood modifying agent can be coated directly, if it is a liquid at room temperature, or it can be heated to decrease viscosity, and when it is a solid at room temperature, it can be heated for liquefaction and coated through of a hot seam control (HMA) weapon. By increasing the air pressure of the HMA gun control seam, it is possible to coat the blood modifying agent as fine particles.
[0220] The blood of the modifying agent can be coated during the production of the topsheet material, such as non-woven fabric, or it can be coated on the manufacturing line for the production of the absorbent article.
[0221] From the point of view of minimizing investment in equipment, the modifying agent is preferably coated with blood on the manufacturing line of the absorbent article, and, in order to prevent the spilling of the blood modifying agent that may contaminate the line , the modifying agent is preferably coated with blood, during a phase, downstream of the manufacturing line, and, specifically, immediately before the encapsulation of the product in an individual package.
[0222] The blood modifying agent can also have an effect as a lubricant.
[0223] When the top sheet is a nonwoven fabric, it is possible to reduce the friction between the fibers, thus improving the flexibility of the nonwoven fabric as a whole. When the top sheet is a resin film, it is possible to reduce the friction between the top sheet and the skin.
[0224] The absorbent article is preferably an absorbent article intended for the absorption of blood, such as a sanitary napkin, the lining of underwear or the like.
[0225] With an absorbent article of the present description, there is no need for components, such as, and emollient immobilizing agents, unlike absorbent articles containing a skin care composition, lotion composition or the like. In one or more embodiments, it is sufficient to apply the top sheet of the blood modifying agent alone. EXAMPLES
[0226] Several examples will now be explained by way of examples, with the understanding that the revelation is not intended to be limited to examples. [Example 1]

[0305] The IOBs, melting points, water solubility and the average molecular weights of the sample weight are shown in Table 2.
[0306] Water solubility was measured by the method described above, and that samples dissolved 24 hours after adding 20.0 g to 100 g of desalinated water, were evaluated as "20 g <", and samples of which 0 , 05 g dissolved in 100 g of desalinated water 1.00 g but did not dissolve were evaluated as 0.05-1.00 g.
[0307] To obtain the melting point, "<45" indicates a melting point below 45 ° C.
[0308] The skin contact surface of the top sheet of the sanitary napkin was coated with the aforementioned blood modifying agent. Each blood modifying agent was used directly, when the blood modifying agent was liquid at room temperature or when the blood modifying agent was solid at room temperature, it heated to its melting point of 20 ° C, and a HMA seam control gun was used for atomizing the blood modifying agent and coating on the skin contact surface of the top sheet at a base weight of about 5 g / m2. - FIG. 1 is a view of Example 1, showing the region of the top sheet that contains the blood modifying agent. As shown in FIG. 1, almost the entire surface of the top sheet 2 of the sanitary napkin 1 in Example 1 is the blood modifying region containing agent 4 comprising the blood modifying agent. In fig. 1, numeral 3 denotes a stamped section (groove or depression). - FIG. 2 is an electron micrograph of the skin contact surface of a topsheet on a sanitary napkin (No. 5), where the topsheet comprises C2L oil tri-glycerides of fatty acids. As clearly seen in the figure. 2, tri-C2L oil fatty acid glycerides are present on the surfaces of the fibers as fine particles. [Test methods]
[0309] An acrylic plate with an open hole (200 mm x 100 mm, 125 g, with 40 mm x 10 mm open hole in the center) was placed on a top sheet comprising each blood modifying agent, and 3 g horse blood at EDTA 37 ± 1 ° C
[0310] (Obtained by the addition of ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid
[0311] (Hereinafter "EDTA") for horse blood to prevent clotting) was withdrawn through the hole with a pipette (Once), and after 1 minute, 3 g of blood horse with EDTA, at 37 ± 1 ° C, it was added dropwise through the acrylic plate orifice, with a pipette (twice).
[0312] After the second blood drop, the acrylic plate was immediately removed and 10 sheets of filter paper (Advantec Toio Kaisha, Ltd, qualitative filter paper No.2, 50 mm x 35 mm) were placed in the place where the blood had been spilled, and then an overover weight was placed at a pressure of 30 g / cm2. After 1 minute, the filter paper was removed and the "rewet rate" was calculated using the following formula. Reheat Rate (%)
[0313] = 100 x (mass of filter paper after testing - mass of initial filter paper) / 6 In addition to the re-wetting rate assessment, the "absorbent body migration rate" was also measured as the time until migration of blood from the top sheet to the absorbent body after the second blood drop. The migration rate of the absorbent body is the time from introducing the blood on the top sheet, until the redness of the blood can be seen on the surface and inside the top sheet.
[0314] The results of the rewetting rate and the absorbent body migration rate are shown below in Table 2.
[0315] The whiteness of the skin contact surface of the top sheet, after the absorption body migration rate test was assessed visually, on the next scale.
[0316] VG (Veri Good): There is practically no redness of the remaining blood, and no clear delimitation between areas with and without blood.
[0317] G (Good): slight redness of blood remaining, but it is difficult to delineate between areas with and without blood.
[0318] F (Fair): slight redness of remaining blood, discernible bloody areas.
[0319] P (Poor): redness of the blood completely left. The results are summarized below in Table 2. Table 2


[0320] In the absence of a blood modifying agent, the wetting rate was 22.7% and the migration rate of the absorbent body was greater than 60 seconds, but the glycerin and fatty acid triesters produced at all rewetting rates not exceeding 7.0% and the absorbent body migration rates not more than 8 seconds, and therefore significantly improves the absorption performance. Of glycerin and fatty acid triesters, however, no major improvement in absorption performance was seen with NA50 which had a melting point above 45 ° C.
[0321] Likewise, the absorption performance has also been significantly improved with blood modifying agents that have an IOB of about 0-0.60, a melting point of no more than about 45 ° C, a solubility in water of about 0.00-0.05 g in 100 g of water at 25 ° C, and an average molecular weight by weight of less than about 1,000.
[0322] Then, several volunteer subjects were invited to use sanitary napkins No. 1-47, and the responses obtained indicate that sanitary napkins comprising blood-modifying agents No. 1-22, the top sheets had none. sticky feeling and the upper leaves were smooth, even after absorption of menstrual blood. The responses also indicated that the differences were notable with sanitary napkins No. 23, 29, 34, 45 and 47.
[0323] In addition, with No. 1 to 22 sanitary napkins and in particular with sanitary napkins that compound blood modifying agents Nos. 1-11, 15-19 and 22, the skin contact surfaces of the upper leaves after the absorption of menstrual blood had not been reddened by the blood and the discomfort was minimal. [Example 2]
[0324] The rate of rewetting was assessed for blood from different animals. Then, the blood was used for the assay. [Animal species] (1) Human (2) Horse (3) Sheep [Blood types] • defibrinated blood: collection of blood and stirred together with glass beads in an Erlenmeier of approximately 5 minutes. • Blood EDTA: 65 mL of venous blood with the addition of 0.5 mL of a 12% isotonic sodium chloride solution of 12% EDTA. [Fractionation]
[0325] Blood serum or plasma: The supernatant obtained after centrifuging defibrinated blood or blood with EDTA for 10 minutes at room temperature at about 1900 G.
[0326] Blood cells: obtained by removing serum from the blood, washing twice with phosphate buffered saline (PBS), and adding phosphate buffered saline with the portion removed from the serum.
[0327] An absorbent article was produced in the same manner as in Example 1, except that the tri-C2L fatty acid glyceride oil was coated with a base weight of about 5 g / m2, and the rewetting rate of each of the referred blood samples was evaluated. The measurement was performed three times for each blood sample, and the average value was recorded.
[0328] The results are shown in Table 3 below. Table 3

[0329] The same trend was observed with human and sheep blood as blood with horse EDTA, as obtained in Example 1. A similar trend was also observed with defibrinated blood and EDTA blood.
[0330] [Example 3]
[0331] [Evaluation of blood retention]
[0332] Blood retention was assessed by a topsheet comprising a blood modifying agent and a topsheet comprising no blood modifying agents.
[0333] [Test methods] (1) A tri-C2L fatty acid glyceride oil was atomized on the skin contact surface of a top sheet formed from an air device through the nonwoven fabric ( fiber composite composed of polyester and polyethylene terephthalate, base weight: 35 g / m2), using a HMA seam control gun, for coating a base weight of about 5 g / m2. For comparison, an uncoated sheet was also prepared with tri-C2L fatty acid glyceride oil. In addition, both the top coated tri-C2L fatty acid glyceride oil sheet and the uncoated top sheet were cut to a size of 0.2 g, and the mass (a) of the cell filter + top sheet was measured with precision. (2) After adding about 2 ml of EDTA horse blood from the side of the skin contact surface, which was left to stand for 1 minute. (3) The cell filter was placed in a centrifuge tube, and rotated downwards to remove excess blood horse with EDTA. (4) The mass (b), of the top sheet containing the cell filter, was measured + blood horse with EDTA. (5) The initial absorption (g) per 1 g of top sheet was calculated using the following formula.
[0334] Initial absorption = [mass (b) - mass (a)] / 0.2
[0335] (6) The cell filter was again established in the
[0336] centrifuge tube and centrifuged at room temperature for 1 minute, at about 1200 G. (7) The mass (c), the first sheet containing the cell filter was measured + blood horse with EDTA.
[0337] (8) Post-test absorption (g) per 1 g of top sheet was calculated using the following formula.
[0338] After the absorption test = [mass (c) - mass (a)] / 0.2
[0339] (9) Blood retention (%) was calculated according to the following formula.
[0340] Blood retention (%) = 100 x post-test
[0341] initial absorption / absorption
[0342] The measurement was performed 3 times, and the average value was recorded.
[0343] The results are shown in Table 4 below. Table 4

[0344] The top sheets that comprise blood-modifying agents had low blood retentions, suggesting that the blood migrated quickly to the absorbent body after absorption. [Example 4]
[0345] [Viscosity of blood modifying agent containing blood]
[0346] Blood viscosity by modifying blood containing agent was measured using a Rheometric
[0347] ARES Expansion System (Rheometric Scientific, Inc.).
[0348] After the addition of 2% by mass of PANACET 810S for defibrinated blood horse, the mixture was gently stirred to form a sample, the sample was placed on a 50 mm diameter plate, with an interval of 100 μπi, and viscosity was measured at 37 ± 0.5 ° C. The sample was not subjected to a uniform cutting speed, due to the parallel plate, but the average shear rate indicated by the device was 10 s -1.
[0349] The viscosity of defibrinated horse blood containing 2 wt% PANACET 810S was 5.9 mPa-s, while the viscosity of defibrinated horse blood containing no blood modifying agent was 50.4 mPa-s. Thus, defibrinated horse blood containing 2% by mass PANACET 810S clearly had a viscosity of approximately 90% less than blood containing no blood modifying agent.
[0350] It is known that blood contains components, such as blood cells and has thixotropy, and it has been found that the blood modifying agent of the present disclosure, can reduce blood viscosity in the low viscosity range.
[0351] The reduction in blood viscosity, presumably, allows the menstrual blood absorbed to migrate quickly from the upper sheet to the absorbent body. [Example 5]
[0352] [Photomicrograph of blood modifying blood containing the agent]
[0353] Menstrual blood was sampled from healthy volunteers in food wrap film, and PANACET 810S dispersed in a 10-fold mass of phosphate buffer was added to a portion of it at a concentration of 810S PANACET 1% by mass. Menstrual blood was dropped on a glass slide, a cover glass was placed thereover, and the condition of the erythrocytes was observed with an optical microscope. A photomicrograph of menstrual blood containing no blood modifying agent is shown in FIG. 3 (a), and a photomicrograph of menstrual blood containing PANACET 810S is shown in FIG. 3 (b).
[0354] As shown in FIG. 3 (a), it appears that the erythrocytes formed aggregates, such as, rolls in the menstrual blood containing no blood modifying agent, whereas, as shown in Fig. 3 (b), the erythrocytes were stably dispersed in the menstrual blood containing PANACET 810S. This suggests that the blood modifying agent functions to stabilize erythrocytes in the blood. [Example 6]
[0355] [The surface tension of blood-modifying agent containing blood]
[0356] The surface tension of the blood, containing a blood modifying agent was measured by the droplet method, using a Master500 drop contact angle meter by Kiowa Interface Science Co., Ltd. The surface tension was measured after the addition of a prescribed amount of blood-modifying agent for defibrinated and shaking sheep's blood.
[0357] The measurement was performed automatically with a device, and the Y density was determined by the following formula (see Fig. 4.).
[0358] i = gxpx (de) 2 xl / H
[0359] g: constant gravitational
[0360] 1 / H: The correction factor determined from ds / d: Density of: Maximum diameter
[0361] ds: Diameter at the edge location of falling edge
[0362] The density of p was measured at the temperatures indicated in Table 5, according to JIS K 2249-1995, "and the density / mass density / volume test methods of conversion tables", "5. Vibratory density test method ".
[0363] The measurement was performed using a 505 promoter by Kioto Electronics Co., Ltd.
[0364] The results are shown in Table 5 below. Table 5

[0365] Table 5 shows that the blood modifying agent can decrease the surface tension of the blood, despite its very low water solubility, as seen by a water solubility of 0.00-0.05 g in 100 g of water at 25 ° C.
[0366] Reducing the surface tension of the blood, presumably, allows the blood to migrate rapidly absorbed from the top sheet to the absorbent body, without being trapped between the top sheet fibers.
