The present disclosure relates to an aramid paper for a honeycomb, which is prepared by mixing, with an aramid floc, an aramid pulp having a fiber length equal to or longer than a predetermined length and a fibril development equal to or higher than a predetermined level, at a predetermined ratio, a wholly aromatic aramid paper for an electrical insulation paper having superior paper formation property and thus having uniform electrical insulation property, which is prepared by mixing an aramid pulp having a fines content equal to or higher than a predetermined ratio at a predetermined ratio, a laminated aramid paper having a uniform thermal expansion coefficient, uniform electrical conductivity and uniform thermal conductivity, which is prepared by laminating an aramid paper with superior paper formation property on an aramid paper with superior paper strength by calendering, and a method for preparing the same. The aramid paper according to the present disclosure is applicable to a material or a component which requires precision with little difference in physical properties such as a thermal expansion coefficient, electrical conductivity and thermal conductivity. Specifically, it is applicable to a honeycomb, an electrical insulation paper, a PCB substrate, etc. because it has superior paper strength and paper formation property. Moreover, the method for preparing an aramid paper can solve the problems of poor transfer of a base paper, nonuniformity of strength and aggregation between flocs.

Soft, durable and bulky tissue products comprising non-wood fibers and more particularly high yield hesperaloe pulp fibers are disclosed. The tissue products preferably comprise at least about 5 percent, by weight of the product, high yield hesperaloe pulp fiber and have relatively modest tensile strengths, such as a geometric mean tensile (GMT) greater than about 1,000 g/3, and improved durability and cross-machine direction (CD) properties, such as a CD Stretch greater than about 10 percent. Additionally, at the foregoing tensile strengths the products are not overly stiff. For example the tissue products may have a Stiffness Index less than about 10.0.

Nonwoven fabric manufacturing line, which comprises a forming device for forming a fibre web on a moving web-forming base and a spunlacing device for reinforcing the web. Further, the line comprises at least one first drying device for drying the web and a calender for forming patterning in the web. The manufacturing line comprises at least one second drying device for drying the calendered web, which second drying device is located after the calender in the direction of travel of the web.

Calender for treating web materials, comprising a structure for supporting two heated rollers forming a nip, wherein each roller has surface reliefs (RR) and in an operational setting of the calender the reliefs of one roller are radially opposed to those of the other roller, each roller rotates with a predetermined angular speed around its axis, the rollers are heated by heating means, and each roller undergoes an axial elongation as a consequence of its heating. The calender comprises detection means (E1, E2; IS) adapted to detect the axial elongation of each roller and a programmable control unit (UCP) connected to the detection means and to the heating means. The control unit is programmed to determine the difference between the axial elongations of the rollers and emitting an alarm signal if the absolute value of this difference is greater than a limit value.

The invention concerns a method of producing an MFC film comprising reinforcement fibers, which film show excellent oxygen barrier properties and is easy to handle. The method of manufacturing the film comprises the steps of: providing a suspension comprising a first microfibrillated cellulose (MFC) in an amount of at least 50 weight %, reinforcement fibers in an amount of at least 5 weight %, all percentages calculated on the total solid content of said suspension, and a formation aid, mixing said suspension to form a mixture, forming a fibrous web from the mixture, and dewatering and/or drying said fibrous web to form a film having a basis weight of less than 40 g/m.sup.2, a specific formation number of below 0.45 g.sup.0.5/m.sup.2, and an Oxygen Transmission Rate (OTR) value of below 100 ml/m.sup.2/per 24 hours, preferably of below 50 ml/m.sup.2 per 24 hours at 50% relative humidity. The invention further discloses a film and use of the film in food or liquid packaging applications.

The invention relates to manufacturing low weight high quality paper suitable for use as a support layer of a release liner. A paper web is formed from pulp slurry, the moisture content of the paper web is reduced by a press section (PSEC), the paper web is supported by a belt (BELT1) from a first contact point (CP1) in the press section (PSEC) to a first separation point (SP1) in a drying section (DSEC), and the paper web is dried to form paper. The temperature profile of the paper web may be non-decreasing. When supported, the temperature of the paper web of the paper web may be higher than or equal to 56 C. to obtain a paper web having a dry content of at least 40 wt.-% at the first separation point.
