Molded inner core architecture: Procter & GambleRecent Research Landscape

The technical lever is the 3D molding of the inner absorbent layer to create a specific structural geometry. This engineers the physical conformance and fluid distribution path of the core.

What technical problems is Procter & Gamble addressing in Molded inner core architecture?

Inadequate fluid containment and discomfort

(19)evidences

Standard absorbent structures fail to effectively capture and isolate low-viscosity fluids and semi-solids. Solving this prevents skin contamination and improves wearer comfort.

Insufficient fluid distribution flexibility

(15)evidences

Standard absorbent cores lack the structural adaptability to maintain fluid intake efficiency across different body movements and shapes. Creating a molded inner core allows for dynamic fit and localized absorption capacity.

Core layer structural instability

(14)evidences

The keywords focus on integrating the core wrap and intermediate layers through bonding and mechanical integration. This addresses the failure of absorbent components to remain physically connected during use, preventing core shifting and bunching which improves fluid management reliability.
