Patent ID: 8603622

Claim:
An absorbent structure with a sequence of layers, comprising: at least one liquid absorbent layer; a subsequent liquid storage layer with super absorbent polymer selected from the group consisting of super absorbent polymer particles and super absorbent polymer fibers; and a subsequent liquid distribution layer, wherein the layers are connected and form a layer structure, wherein at least the liquid storage layer and the liquid distribution layer at least respectively include an air laid material comprising pores as a main component, wherein a portion of the air laid material in the liquid distribution layer has smaller pores than the pores of a portion of the air laid material in the liquid storage layer, wherein more than 20% of the super absorbent polymer arranged in the liquid storage layer extends from the liquid storage layer into the liquid distribution layer for generating a reverse suction effect for liquid which has entered through the liquid absorption layer and the liquid storage layer into the liquid distribution layer.
