The present invention is generally directed to a doctor blade comprising a blade, a backing member or material and a viscoelastic material disposed there between. The doctor blades of the present invention overcome many of the limitations of prior art doctor blades, namely the reduction of blade vibration and the resulting damage caused to dryer surfaces. The creping blades and doctor blades of the present invention can be used for any purpose and should not be considered to be limited to the examples set forth herein.

The present disclosure provides high bulk tissue products, as well as an apparatus and methods for manufacturing the same. The tissue products provided herein not only have high bulk, but they also have improved surface smoothness, particularly compared to tissue products of similar basis weights.

The hub described herein is adapted for specialized use with relatively larger diameter tissue roll cores and large width rolls. The hub prevents the practical use of smaller tissue rolls having smaller core diameters and/or being a smaller width roll. The hub allows for custom matching a bath tissue roll with a particular hub for quality control purposes. The hub facilitates the installation of a predetermined uniform bath tissue to be mounted in a dispenser with the hub.

A shop towel device adheres to and covers the exterior of a garment to allow for wiping of the hands without soiling the garment. The device includes a base layer, the base layer being impermeable by fluids. An outer layer is coupled to and coextensive with the base layer. The outer layer is constructed of a fluid absorbent material. An inner layer is coupled to the base layer such that the base layer is between the outer layer and the inner layer. The inner layer is adherent for adhering to a garment such that the outer layer is exposed on the garment.

Embossed fibrous structures containing a plurality of filaments and methods for making same are provided.

Disclosed are multi-ply tissue products comprising a non-crosslinked binder that are durable, smooth and with low levels of Slough. In certain instances the creped tissue product have a geometric mean tensile (GMT) from about 700 to about 1,500 g/3″, a basis weight from about 45 to about 60 gsm and a Slough less than about 2.00 mg, more preferably less than about 1.50 mg, such as from about 0.10 to about 2.00, such as from about 0.25 to about 1.50 mg. The inventive tissue products also have good durability, such as a Durability Index from about 10.0 to about 20.0, smooth surfaces, such as a TS750 value from about 15.0 to 40.0 and low stiffness, such as a Stiffness Index less than about 10.0.

A hygienic tissue includes a front side and a back side. The front side includes an absorbent material and the back side includes an absorbent material. A fluid resistant material is between the front side absorbent material and the back side absorbent material, and a pocket is on the back side for receiving one or more of a user's fingers. The back side defines an aperture for providing access to the pocket. The aperture is surrounded on one or more sides by the back side such that one or more pockets are formed along the back side. Attachments can be used to attach the tissue to a user's hand, wrist or ears. The tissue can be used, for example, when sneezing, coughing, nose blowing or touching contaminated surfaces, as a hygienic tissue, face mask, and wet wipe.
