Abstract

A device for the analysis of fluid distribution in an absorbent article is disclosed. The device provides for a frame, a pressure chamber disposed in contacting and mating engagement with the frame, and a NMR sensor in cooperative engagement with the frame and the pressure chamber. The pressure chamber further comprises a top plate and a conformable surface. The absorbent article is disposable between the top plate and the conformable surface. The NMR sensor is disposable proximate to the pressure chamber and is capable of measuring a fluid distribution in the absorbent article when the absorbent article is disposed between the top plate and the conformable surface of the pressure chamber and the NMR sensor is disposed proximate to a surface of the absorbent article.
