Abstract:
1. An animal incontinence device, comprising: a base layer of a liquid-impervious polymer film; an intermediate absorbent layer consisting of superabsorbent polymer particles and at least one adjuvant disposed intermediate at least two layers of single-ply tissue, the particles bonded and secured between the layers of tissue by the application of at least one of heat and pressure; and a top layer comprising a porous, hydrophilic, woven or non-woven polymer fiber mat; wherein the base and top layers are sealed together with an adhesive and encapsulate the intermediate layer with the superabsorbent polymer particles, the base layer larger in area than the top layer so that at least one of the peripheral edges of the base layer is folded up and over the peripheral edges of the top layer, the adhesive disposed intermediate the perimeters of the top and base layers to seal the base and top layers together at their peripheral edges.
