The present invention relates to a surface material (5) for absorbent articles, wherein the surface material includes heat-shrunk, spiralled elastic thermoplastic multicomponent fibres (1), preferably bicomponent fibres (1). The components (2, 3) in the multicomponent fibres have mutually different shrinkage properties and lie in mutually juxtaposed relationship. The material is comprised of hydrophobic fibres and has an open and airy structure which allows liquid to quickly pass therethrough and be transported to an absorbent layer or sheet (7) in the absorbent article. The material has a smooth and soft surface, which enables it to be used in the sheet (5) that shall lie proximal to the wearer in use. The invention also relates to an absorbent article which includes the surface material (5), and also to the use of this material as both an acquisition/transportation sheet and a surface sheet in an absorbent article.
L'invention concerne un matériau de surface (5) pour articles absorbants, comprenant des fibres à multicomposants (1), de préférence à deux composants, ces fibres étant thermoplastiques élastiques spiralées et thermorétrécies. Les composants (2, 3) des fibres à multicomposants ont des caractéristiques de retrait différentes et sont juxtaposées. Le matériau, constitué de fibres hydrophobes, a une structure ouverte et perméable à l'air, ce qui permet au liquide de le traverser rapidement et d'atteindre la couche ou feuille absorbante (7) de l'article absorbant. Grâce à sa surface lisse et douce, ce matériau peut être utilisé pour la feuille (5) directement en contact avec l'utilisateur. L'invention concerne également un article absorbant contenant ce matériau de surface (5), l'utilisation de ce matériau comme feuille d'acquisition/transport et enfin la feuille de surface utilisée dans un article absorbant.
