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:
An embossed composite nonwoven web material includes a mixture of thermally unbonded continuous spunlaid filaments and short fibers including natural and/or synthetic fibers or staple fibers. The continuous filaments and short fibers being substantially mechanically bonded to each other by hydroentangling and the composite nonwoven web material being embossed without thermobonds to have a strength index equal to or more than 1 time the strength index of the unembossed composite nonwoven web material.
Abstract:
The invention proposes an embossed sheet (10) comprising at least one ply (12) of tissue having an embossing pattern comprising at least one series of protuberances (18) formed projecting from one surface of the said ply (12) of tissue, and at least one ply joined to the said at least one ply (12) of tissue and located opposite the said surface of the ply (14) of water-soluble material, characterized in that the ply (14) of water-soluble material is joined to the said at least one ply (12) of tissue at the summits (18a) of at least part of the protuberances (18). The invention also proposes a method for manufacturing such a multi-ply sheet (10).
Abstract:
An object of the present invention is to provide an embossed crepe paper which can clearly be formed into fine embossed shapes, and is excellent in the fluffy feel and therefore excellent in such as absorbency for fats. As a means of achieving this object, the method for manufacturing an embossed crepe paper, according to the present invention, is a method for manufacturing an embossed crepe paper comprising a step of embossing a raw crepe paper, wherein: a raw paper having a basis weight of 6 to 28 g/m2 is used as the raw crepe paper; and the embossing step includes the steps of: (a) supplying the raw crepe paper with water in an amount of 0.1 to 100 weight % based on the basis weight to thereby put the raw crepe paper in a wet condition; (b) embossing the wet-conditioned raw crepe paper; and (c) drying the embossed wet-conditioned raw crepe paper.
Abstract:
A method of making an embossed air-laid absorbent sheet product includes depositing a dry web of fibers on a foraminous support; compacting the fiber web; embossing the compacted web with a laser-engraved roll with a hard rubber embossing surface, the hard rubber embossing surface having a plurality of sinuate bosses radially projecting circumferentially around the laser-engraved roll to provide the fiber web with a functional emboss pattern including a plurality of continuous sinuate compressed regions extending in a machine direction of the fiber web, the laser-engraved roll being heated to or maintained at a temperature of from about 100° F. to about 300° F.; and bonding the fiber web.
Abstract:
A method of embossing an absorbent web with a machine direction undulatory structure is described. The web has a plurality of ridges extending in its machine direction occurring at a frequency, F, across the web and the method includes providing the web to an embossing station where the web is embossed between a first and second embossing roll, each of which rolls may be provided with a plurality of embossing elements configured to define a plurality of embossing nips. At least a portion of the embossing nips are substantially oriented in a cross-machine direction with respect to the web and have a cross direction length, L. The product F×L is from about 0.1 to about 5.
Abstract:
A multi-layered paper product that has bridging regions for inhibiting nesting is provided. For example, the paper product can contain a first and second layer that define ridges and valleys. Bridging regions are formed into at least one of the outer surfaces of the layers. In particular, the bridging regions are positioned at an angle of between about 0° to about 180° relative to the ridges and also have a length sufficient to extend between the peaks of at least two of the ridges. The bridging regions can be formed in a variety of ways, such as with an embossing roll that contains embossing elements. Moreover, the bridging regions can also have a variety of shapes, sizes, orientations, and/or patterns.
Abstract:
An embossing system for embossing and perforating at least a portion of a web is provided comprising a first embossing roll having embossing elements and at least a second embossing roll having embossing elements, wherein the elements of the first and second embossing rolls define perforate nips for embossing and perforating the web and wherein at least a predominate number of the perforate nips are substantially oriented in the cross-machine direction. Moreover, substantially all of the nips defined by the embossing elements of the first and second embossing rolls can be substantially oriented in the cross-machine direction. Further, the cross-machine embossing elements are at an angle of about 85° to 95° from the machine direction.

Abstract:
Method for producing a multi-ply web of flexible material, such as paper and nonwoven material and a multi-ply product produced according to the method. A first pattern roll, having a three dimensional pattern of alternating raised and recessed portions transfers glue to a first web shaped flexible material in a first press nip in glue sites covering an area corresponding to between 0.03 and 9% of the total area of the first web material and sparsely distributed over substantially the entire area of the first web material. A second web shaped flexible material is brought in contact with the glue applied side of the first web material in a second press nip between a second pattern roll having a three-dimensional pattern corresponding to that of the first pattern roll, and an impression roll. The first and second pattern rolls are driven in registry.
