The present invention discloses a papermaking fabric having a both machine direction (MD) and cross-machine direction (CD) oriented protuberances for molding and structuring a nascent paper web, particularly tissue paper webs. The MD orientated protuberances are spaced apart from one another in the fabric cross-machine direction and may be continuous and parallel to one another. The CD orientated protuberances are preferably discrete and comprise less than about 15 percent of the web contacting surface of the fabric. In certain instances the MD orientated protuberances are formed from interwoven filaments and the CD orientated protuberances are nonwoven and may be applied to the woven fabric substrate by printing.

A method of manufacturing a security paper is presented. The method comprises: preparing a composition A containing a mixture of softwood and hardwood pulp, and preparing a mixture of a refined pulp and magnetic wires having predetermined magnetic properties; preparing a composition C by blending the mixture B and the composition A; diluting the composition C, and forming a pulp single layer D including the magnetic wires at a predetermined density; removing moisture from the pulp single layer D; forming at least one protective coating layer on at least one side of the paper; and calendering the paper, thereby obtaining a security paper structure with the magnetic wires fully embedded in the pulp single layer.

The following steps are provided for producing a sheet cellulose material, for instance a handkerchief, comprising at least one adjuvant substance for the treatment of allergic rhinitis: generating an aqueous nano- or micro-emulsion containing nano- or micro-droplet of said at least one substance encapsulated in a protective layer comprising a non-ionic surface-active agent; applying the nano- or micro-emulsion to the cellulose material; evaporating water, leading to the formation of nano- or micro-capsules anchored to the cellulose fibers.

The present invention provides a treated fiber having reduced hydrogen bonding capabilities, which may be useful in the production of tissue products having improved bulk and softness. The treated fiber comprises a water-insoluble inorganic compound that is generated in situ by reacting at least one compound selected from the group consisting of a silicate, a silyl, a silane, and an alkaline metal and a precipitation agent in the presence of the fiber at or above the critical fiber consistency.

A process for making an absorbent towel paper web is disclosed. The process steps include a) providing a papermaking furnish, b) forming a differential density wet fibrous web from the paper making furnish; and, c) drying the differential density wet fibrous web until fibrous web contains not more than about 10% by weight moisture to form the absorbent towel paper web. Step a) provides the steps of providing: i) from about 20.1% to about 99.9% by weight of a softwood pulp fiber mixture and, ii) from greater than 0% to about 79.9% by weight of a hardwood pulp fiber mixture. Step i) further provides the steps of providing u) from about 20% to about 99.8% by weight of softwood pulp fiber, v) from about 0.05% to about 20% by weight of cellulose nano-filaments, and, w) from about 0.05% to about 5.0% by weight of strengthening additive.
