Abstract

Fibrous absorbent articles such as disposable diapers, catamenial devices, wound dressings, bandages, incontinence pads, wipes, underwear, shoe inserts and the like, contain an effective amount of crystalline, siliceous molecular sieve having pore diameters of at least about 5.5 Angstroms and a relatively low capacity for adsorbed water, and exhibit enhanced deodorizing properties with respect to the body fluids intended to be absorbed.
