Claim 27:
28. An absorbent core composite for incorporation into a disposable absorbent article, the absorbent core composite comprising:
a first fabric comprising a nonwoven;
a second fabric comprising a nonwoven;
a plurality of aggregates of superabsorbent particles situated between said first and second fabrics, wherein the aggregates are pulpless;
an arrangement of intermittent 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, wherein gaps are situated between the intermittent bond sites, and wherein the gaps provide fluid communication between adjacent pockets;
an adhesive pattern on the first fabric, wherein the adhesive pattern comprises a plurality of intersecting loops of adhesive, wherein the loops of adhesive define open regions on the first fabric that are free of adhesive, and wherein adhesive of the adhesive pattern is in contact with some of the of superabsorbent particles that are situated in a bottom layer of the aggregates adjacent said first fabric; and
wherein one of the nonwovens of the first and second fabrics is a bulky nonwoven; and
a 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 each located adjacent one of the aggregates of the first layer and in one pocket therewith to form, together, a distinct single aggregate of a combination of two SAP aggregates in one pocket and a plurality of such distinct aggregates disposed together in a distinctly centralized region, wherein each such distinct aggregate provides a greater concentration of superabsorbent particles than each of the aggregates of the first layer; and
wherein said second layer of superabsorbent particles is reduced longitudinally in length as compared to the first layer of superabsorbent particles.
