A unitary deflection member. The unitary deflection member can have a fluid pervious reinforcing member and a patterned framework. The patterned framework can have a plurality of regularly spaced protuberances extending from the reinforcing member. At least two of said protuberances can be similar in size and shape, and can have linear segments having different cross-sectional areas along the z-direction.

A fibrous structure is disclosed. The fibrous structure exhibits a plurality of discrete knuckles arranged in a pattern of repeat units. The repeat units can include a plurality of rows arranged orthogonally in an X-Y plane, each row having a portion of the discrete knuckles, and each discrete knuckle separated from adjacent discrete knuckles in a row by a distance. Each of the discrete knuckles within the repeat unit can have substantially the same shape and size; and wherein the distance between at least two adjacent discrete knuckles in each row are non-uniform such that the repeat unit exhibits varying pillow width distances along the rows in both the X and Y axes.

A method of making an absorbent structure including forming a stock mixture of fibers, a cationic wet strength resin, an anionic polyacrylamide and a cellulase enzyme, and at least partially drying the stock mixture to form a web.

Disclosed is a coreless roll of a tissue paper product made of a spirally wound continuous web having a first end and second end and an outer diameter in the range of 95 to 150 mm, the web of tissue paper product being wound to define an inner hole centrally positioned relative to the coreless roll such that the first end is located on the outer side of the coreless roll and the second end is located at the inner hole, a diameter of the inner hole being 20 to 50 mm, a density of the coreless roll being 80 to 150 kg/m.sup.3, and a caliper ratio of the roll being 10% to 80%, the tissue paper product including between two and four ply-bonded plies, at least one ply being Conventional Wet Press, and at least one ply being a structured ply.

The present invention provides an embossed multi-ply tissue product that is visually pleasing and has improved physical attributes. For example, the inventive multi-ply tissue products have reduced stiffness, such as a GM Flexural Rigidity less than about 600 mg*cm, improved absorbency, such as a Residual Water (W.sub.Residual) value less than about 0.15 g, and improved wet resiliency, such as a wet elastic strain ratio greater than about 32 percent.

To provide a toilet paper that provides an excellent thick feeling, has excellent water-disintegrability, has sufficient softness, provides a security feeling to a human body during use, and is environmentally friendly.

The problem is solved by a 3-ply or 4-ply toilet paper, each ply having a basis weight of 10.5 to 12.5 g/m.sup.2, containing oxygen-pulped and non-chlorine-bleached softwood kraft pulp in an amount of 50 to 100% by mass of fibers, containing a cationic fatty acid amide-based softener, each ply having a paper thickness of 80 to 100 μm, having a paper thickness of 320 to 400 μm as the entire toilet paper, and having water-disintegrability of 10 seconds or less.
