Claim 28:
29. An absorbent core composite for incorporation into a disposable absorbent article, the absorbent core composite comprising:
a first fabric;
a second fabric;
a base plurality of aggregates of superabsorbent particles situated between said first and second fabrics, said plurality of aggregates forming a first layer of superabsorbent particles;
an arrangement of bond sites that secure the second fabric to the first fabric, wherein the arrangement of bond sites defines a plurality of pockets between the first and second fabrics, wherein each aggregate of superabsorbent particles is situated within one of the pockets; and
an adhesive pattern on the first fabric, wherein the adhesive pattern comprises adhesive, and wherein the adhesive pattern defines open regions on the first fabric that are free of adhesive;
wherein the first and second fabrics, and said adhesive and superabsorbent particles therebetween form a laminate having longitudinal end margins and side margins extending between the end margins, and
wherein about a central region between the end margins, a pair of cutouts is provided in the side margins that provides a concavity therein and in the generally rectangular laminate; and
wherein the adhesive pattern defines an open pattern and wherein said SAP aggregates and said adhesive pattern both contact one of said first layer and a second layer wherein a contact area between the adhesive pattern and said one of the first fabric and second fabric is substantially less than a contact area between said base plurality of aggregates and said one of said first fabric and second fabric;
and the second layer of superabsorbent particles formed by a plurality of aggregates of superabsorbent particles situated between said first and second fabrics, the second layer containing aggregates located adjacent some of the SAP aggregates of the first layer to form, together, aggregates of superabsorbent particles disposed together in a distinctly centralized region and each having a greater concentration than each of the aggregates of the first layer.
