[Comment: Here is another article regarding Pampers with Dry Max Technology. Parents are reporting chemical burns from this product while P&G is downplaying it to new packaging and diaper rash. Anytime trick words are used, like "dry max technology", it usually means there are chemicals added. So far as diapers go, cloth diapers are a winner. I've seen many advertisements for cloth diaper companies who pick up dirty diapers and delivery clean ones. Depending on what they wash them in, this may be a better alternative to plastic diapers with chemical addives and adhisives. Washing them at home, if this is possible, would ensure no chemicals touch baby at all.]
Mommy Bloggers Take Aim At New Diapers

"A new product from Pampers has gotten parents' diapers in a bunch. Earlier this year, Procter & Gamble unveiled the next generation of its Pampers brand, which incorporates the firm's DRY MAX TECHNOLOGY. The new design, in P&G's words, eliminates "the bulky fluff material in the storage core." Although the company wouldn't say so specifically, this probably means that P&G eliminated the wood pulp in the storage pad and is relying more heavily on superabsorbent polymers (SAP) such as sodium polyacrylate. These polymers can carry five times more water than the pulp can."
