摘要:
A method of making regenerated cellulose microfibers includes forming segmented fibers with multiple longitudinally-extending segments of slightly different composition such that there is defined splittable interfaces between juxtaposed segments of the fibers which are then split into microfibers at yields of greater than 50%. Fibers so produced may be incorporated into absorbent sheet with other papermaking fibers to provide strength, softness, bulk and absorbency to tissue, towel, and personal care products.

A multi-ply absorbent sheet includes at least a first and second ply bonded together. In one construction, the first and second ply are provided with from about 90% by weight to about 25% by weight pulp-derived papermaking fiber and from about 10% to about 75% by weight fibrillated regenerated cellulosic microfiber having a characteristic CSF value of less than 175 ml; the sheet having a caliper of from 180-250 mils/8 sheets and exhibiting a wipe-dry time of less than 20 seconds, an SAT capacity in the range of 350-500 g/m2, an SAT rate in the range of 0.05-0.25 g/s0.5, a CD wet tensile in the range of 400-2500 g/3″ and a wet/dry CD tensile ratio of from 35% to 60%. The multi-ply sheets are efficient, high capacity wipers and have enough absorbent capacity to be used as ordinary paper towels. Preferred wiper towel products exhibit a differential pore volume for pores under 5 microns in diameter of at least about 75 mm3/g/micron.

摘要:
A method for bleaching cellulosic pulp is disclosed, with one embodiment revealing a three-step bleaching method for cellulosic pulp comprising an activating bleach step, an alkaline peroxide step, and a reductive bleach step. The cellulosic pulp treated according to the present invention may possess a greater GE brightness gain than if treated according to conventional methods, while not suffering a significant loss of lignin. The cellulosic pulp may comprise recycled fibers, including those with high groundwood content. The bleaching method may also decrease the pH of the pulp.
摘要:
A multi-ply wiper/towel product includes at least one wet laid web including at least 10% fibrillated cellulosic microfiber, and at least about 40% wood pulp derived papermaking fibers. The at least one wet laid web has formed therein (i) a plurality of fiber-enriched hollow domed regions on the upper side of the at least one wet laid web having a relatively high local basis weight, and (ii) connecting regions of a relatively lower local basis weight forming a network interconnecting the relatively high local basis weight domed regions of the one wet laid web. Transition areas are provided in the at least one wet laid web with upwardly and inwardly inflected consolidated fibrous regions transitioning from the connecting regions into the domed regions, and the at least one wet laid web exhibits a differential pore volume for pores under 5 microns in a diameter of at least about 75 mm3/g/micron.

摘要:
An absorbent paper sheet for tissue or towel includes from about 99 percent to about 70 percent by weight of cellulosic papermaking fiber and from about 1 percent to about 30 percent by weight fibrillated regenerated cellulose microfiber which was regenerated form a cellulosic dope utilizing a tertiary amine N-oxide solvent or an ionic liquid. Fibrillation of the microfiber is controlled such that it has a reduced coarseness and a reduced freeness as compared with unfibrillated regenerated cellulose microfiber from which it is made and provides at least one of the following attributes to the absorbent sheet: (a) the absorbent sheet exhibits an elevated SAT value and an elevated wet tensile value as compared with a like sheet prepared without fibrillated regenerated cellulose microfiber; (b) the absorbent sheet exhibits an elevated wet/dry CD tensile ratio as compared with a like sheet prepared without fibrillated regenerated cellulose microfiber; (c) the absorbent sheet exhibits a lower GM Break Modulus than a like sheet having like tensile values prepared without fibrillated regenerated cellulose microfiber; or (d) the absorbent sheet exhibits an elevated bulk as compared with a like sheet having like tensile values prepared without fibrillated regenerated cellulose microfiber. In some embodiments, the pulp is pre-treated with debonder to enhance the wet/dry CD tensile ratio of the sheet.
