A multilayered apertured film wrapping element for an absorbent article is
disclosed. At least one outer layer of the fluid-impervious plastic
material has a continuous phase of a thermoplastic polymeric component
and an immiscible, dispersed phase of a thermoplastic polymeric component
having a lower melting point. The wrapping element is useful in
applications involving heat sealing and similar thermal processes in
absorbent articles, such as sanitary napkins, diapers, bandages, tampons,
and the like.
