Abstract:
A multiple ply tissue paper structure is disclosed. The paper structure includes a ply comprising discrete relatively low density regions dispersed throughout a relatively high density continuous network. The paper structure also include a ply which does not include discrete relatively low density regions dispersed throughout a relatively high density continuous network. The different structures of the two plies provide improved absorbency over a homogeneous multiple ply structure.
Abstract:
A method of preparing paper for filter bags, the method of the type comprising a step during which a non-woven paper is prepared comprising two superposed layers, namely a layer based on synthetic fibers and a layer of cellulose fibers, by a technique which is known per se, wherein the method includes a subsequent step of subjecting the non-woven paper to a calendering operation between a support structure and a heated cylinder having projections. The present invention also provides apparatus for implementing the method and products obtained in this manner.
Abstract:
The present invention is directed to an embossed ply suitable for use in a multi-ply, embossed paper. The embossed ply has bosses of two different depths wherein the bosses having a greater depth or the "big bosses" alternate with the more shallow bosses or "small bosses". When the embossed ply is used to form a multi-ply paper, the small bosses are arranged in a tip-to-tip relation with bosses in a second embossed ply, while the big bosses of the first ply are positioned to nest between the bosses of the second ply. Furthermore, a method and apparatus for manufacturing the embossed, multi-ply paper is described.
Abstract:
Method and apparatus for the manufacture of a cellular material which utilizes an embossing roller to emboss at least one film after being preheated to an embossing temperature. At least the embossed sheet preferably includes a coating of adhesive which is reactivated during the preheating procedure so that upon applying a second unheated film to the embossed film the individual embossments will be sealed. The preheating means is arranged so that it can be moved out of its normal operating position in order to enable termination of the embossing and sealing process, and means are utilized to rapidly interchange the embossing rollers to minimize the down time for the apparatus.
Abstract:
An adhesively laminated creped tissue product, having particular usefulness as a dinner napkin, is formed from two creped tissue webs superposed with the lines of creping of each web substantially parallel to the lines of creping of the other, and patterned adhesive disposed between the webs. Each web is in a different condition of stress in the plane of the laminated product. The bonded webs may be formed into individual napkins embossed about their periphery, leaving a substantial unembossed area in the center.
Abstract:
A LAMINATED TISSUE PRODUCT AS FOR PAPER TOWELING IS FORMED FROM AT LEAST TWO CREPED TISSUE WEBS BONDED IN SUPERPOSED REALTION BY ADHESIVE DISPOSED IN PATTERNED LINES DELINEATING SUBSTANIAL UNBONDED REGIONS. EACH OF THE WEBS IS EMBOSSED TO PRODUCE RAISED PORTIONS EXTENDING FROM ONE SURFACE THEREOF, AND THE RAISED PORTIONS OF ONE WEB OPPOSE RESPECTIVE RAISED PORTIONS OF THE OTHER WEB. THE RAISED PORTIONS ARE EMBOSSED IN PATTERNS ASSURING OPPOSED RELATION TO THE RESPECTIVE RISED PORTIONS AND PRECLUDING ANY SUBSTANTIAL NESTING OF THE WEBS IRRESPECTIVE OF THE RELATIVE LATERAL DISPOSITION OF THE WEBS. THE WEBS ARE JOINED UNDER DIFFERENT RESPECTIVE TENSIONS SO THAT, UPON RELAXING, THE WEBS ARE IN DIFFERENT CONDITIONS OF STRESS, AND ONE WEB IS OF GREATER AREA THAN THE OTHER.
