Design and Materials Selection: analysis of similar sanitary pads for daily use
M Pohlmann
An interesting analysis of material selection for the top sheet (usually a synthetic nonwoven) of a sanitary pad, by a Brazilian academic. Since this is the layer contacting the body directly, it is the part of the pad that can have most effect on local ventilation, local temperature, and transfer of substances to the body, all of which can lead to infection.
