Abstract:
Disclosed is a non-nested, two-ply, absorbent fibrous sheet material consisting of two webs which each have a plurality of crests and depressions on its surface facing the other web. The crests on each web are positioned between the crests of the other web and are spaced from the depressions of the other web to leave spaces in the sheet material for increased absorbency and bulk. The two webs are joined together at locations intermediate the crests and depressions of at least one of the webs, preferably by mechanical welding in a manner which produces perforations in the sheet material. Also disclosed is the method and apparatus for making the two-ply sheet material.
Abstract:
A method for manufacturing a multi-ply tissue paper web for tissue paper products including providing a first inner web having a basis weight of 10 to 30 gsm, providing a first and a second outermost web being non-ribbed webs, wherein a non-ribbed web is defined as a web displaying no parallel ribs and valleys extending continuously along any direction of the web or displaying parallel ribs and valleys extending continuously along any direction of the web, said ribs and valleys providing a number of peaks being less than 4 per cm; positioning said first inner web between said first and second outermost webs; and ply-bonding said webs to a form a multi-ply web wherein said first and second outermost webs form the outermost plies of the multi-ply web.
Abstract:
Products having improved ply bonding, moldability and drape and methods for making those products are described. The methods comprise producing a multi-ply adhesively bonded product comprising a pattern of uniformly spaced microembossed elements with a bond area of less than about 0.020 inches/sq. inch.
Abstract:
Disclosed is a tissue paper product including at least three plies with a top ply and bottom ply as outermost plies, and an inner ply between the top and bottom plies, a basis weight of the tissue paper product being 30-150. The top ply being embossed with at least two types of embossments including first embossments with a first height and second embossments with a second height, the first height being larger than the second height, and the bottom ply is embossed, the inner ply and the top ply being bonded with the bottom ply at tips of the first embossments with an adhesive, such as a lamination glue, or the inner ply, the top ply, and the bottom ply are ply-bonded with mechanical bonding, at least one of the top ply and the bottom ply being embossed by a heated embossing roll.
Abstract:
This disclosure relates to a tissue paper product including between two and four plies, including at least a first ply and a second ply, the two plies, three plies, or four plies being ply-bonded to form the tissue paper product, the first ply and the second ply being the outermost plies of the tissue paper product, a grammage of the tissue paper product being to 50 g/m2 if a total number of plies of the tissue paper product is 2, 34 to 65 g/m2 if a total number of plies of the tissue paper product is 3, and 55 to 95 g/m2 if a total number of plies of the tissue paper product is 4, the first ply being made of Conventional Wet Press (CWP) paper that has been embossed with a heated embossing roll, the second ply being a structured paper ply.
Abstract:
A process to mate a plurality of tissue webs includes in one embodiment providing first and second steel rolls and a second steel roll. The first steel roll has first protrusions, and the second steel roll has recesses. The embodiment includes forming a rotary nip between the first steel roll and the second steel roll, and advancing the plurality of tissue webs through the nip. The embodiment includes embossing first and second embossments into the plurality of tissue webs to connect the tissue webs to one another. The first protrusions press a first series of portions of the plurality of tissue webs into the recesses. The second embossments are created by one of pin-to-flat and pin-to-pin embossing. An apparatus suitable for carrying out the process is also disclosed.
Abstract:
Multi-layer bags may be formed to include first and second sidewalls joined along a first side edge, an opposite second side edge, and a closed bottom edge. The first and second layers may be non-continuously laminated together to include bonded regions in which the layers are bonded and unbonded regions in which the layers are not bonded. Such a bag may be described as a “bag-in-a-bag” type configuration in which the inner bag is non-continuously bonded to the outer bag. The inventors have surprisingly found that such configurations of non-continuous bonding provides increased and unexpected strength properties to the multi-layer films and bags.
Abstract:
Multi-layer bags may be formed to include first and second sidewalls joined along a first side edge, an opposite second side edge, and a closed bottom edge. The first and second layers may be non-continuously laminated together in discrete sections to include bonded regions in which the layers are bonded and unbonded regions in which the layers are not bonded. Such a bag may be described as a “bag-in-a-bag” type configuration in which the inner bag is non-continuously bonded to the outer bag. The inventors have surprisingly found that such configurations of non-continuous bonding provides increased and unexpected strength properties to the multi-layer films and bags.
Abstract:
The device for joining at least two plies of paper, in particular tissue paper, including a ply-bonding unit and moistening means to moisten at least one of the two plies before joining.
Abstract:
The aim of the invention is to create an embossing device for at least two-layered planar products such as toilet paper, tissues, or similar, which makes it possible to easily make high-quality planar products that are provided with decorative patterns. The aim is achieved by an embossing device for at least two-layered planar products such as toilet paper, tissues, and similar. Also, the embossing device has at least one first and at least one second couple of rollers, each of which is composed of an embossing roller and a squeezer.
