Disclosed are multi-ply tissue products, particularly creped and through-air dried tissue products, having cloth like properties, such as good drapability and durability. For example, the products generally comprise two plies and have a geometric mean slope (GM Slope) less than about 10.0 kg and a geometric mean tensile energy absorption (GM TEA) of about 15 g.Math.cm/cm.sup.2 or greater. In certain instances, the tissue products also have a low degree of stiffness, such as a Stiffness Index less than about 5.00. The tissue products may be prepared from webs manufactured by a print-crepe process that deposits a latex polymer on at least one of the outer surfaces of the tissue web.

Web material structuring belts that impart structure to a web material during a web material structuring operation and/or structured web material forming operation, method for making same and methods for using same to make structured web materials, for example structured fibrous structures, such as structured sanitary tissue products such as structured toilet tissue, structured paper towels and structured facial tissue are provided.

The purpose of the present invention is to provide a laminate being excellent in chemical resistance, wear resistance, vibration absorption properties and flame resistance, and having high mechanical strength; and a method for its production. A laminate 1 comprises a fiber-reinforced resin layer 20 which comprises a reinforcing fiber base material and a resin component containing at least 50 vol % of a specific fluororesin, wherein the ratio of the reinforcing fiber base material to the total volume of the reinforcing fiber base material and the resin component is from 0.30 to 0.70, and a specific substrate 10, wherein at least one outermost layer is the fiber-reinforced resin layer 20, and the ratio of the total thickness of the fiber-reinforced resin layer 20 to the total thickness of the substrate 10 is from 1/99 to 30/70.

A gypsum wallboard having a core with a central core layer and one or more densified layers is disclosed. At least one densified layer contains salt absorbent particles of zeolite and/or hydrotalcite to improve adhesion of the gypsum core to a cover sheet. Also, methods of making the gypsum wallboard and a wall system for employing the gypsum wallboard are disclosed.

A process for producing a smooth-sided strand-based siding or wood structural panel using a secondary pressing process. The secondary pressing process is performed after the primary process completes pressing and consolidation of the substrate/board. The secondary process applies and cures the overlay after applying a water spray on the hot board immediately out of the primary process press, and before overlay application. The application of the water spray causes the surface of the board to swell and cure. A settling period follows to allow the top surface particles and strands to swell along with absorption and evaporation of the moisture. This is followed by surface sanding to remove the telegraphing and produce a smooth surface, which is then followed by lamination of the overlay(s). The process is completed by post-lamination treatment and coating of the board.

The present invention relates to a method for manufacturing a multilayer film comprising highly refined cellulose fibers, the method comprising the steps of: a) forming a first wet web by applying a first pulp suspension comprising highly refined cellulose fibers on a first wire; b) partially dewatering the first wet web to obtain a first partially dewatered web; c) forming a second wet web y applying a foamed second pulp suspension comprising highly refined cellulose fibers and a foaming agent on a second wire; d) partially dewatering the foamed second wet web to obtain a second partially dewatered web; e) joining the first and second partially dewatered web to obtain a multilayer web; and f) further dewatering, and optionally drying, the multilayer web to obtain a multilayer film comprising highly refined cellulose fibers.

A sound damping wallboard for installation on an installed wallboard, a sound damping wallboard system, and a method of constructing a sound damping wallboard on a building structure are disclosed. The sound damping wallboard includes a gypsum layer having a gypsum layer inner surface and a gypsum layer outer surface, a first sound damping layer disposed at the gypsum layer inner surface and having a first sound damping layer inner surface opposite the gypsum layer inner surface, a first encasing layer disposed at the gypsum layer outer surface, a second encasing layer disposed at the first sound damping layer inner surface, and a second sound damping layer disposed at the second encasing layer opposite the first sound damping layer inner surface.

A beverage sleeve provides a device for a consumer to use in connection with a hot or cold beverage. The sleeve is operable to keep the hot beverage container cool to the touch for the consumer while keeping a cold beverage dry to the touch of the consumer. A method of manufacturing produces the improved sleeve. The sleeve includes marketing opportunities by providing advertising indicia that are interfacable with the consumer and a marketing network.

The invention relates to a method of manufacturing a new low density foam-formed cellulose material comprising dialcohol-modified celllulose, and to bulk sheets, layers, laminates or moulded articles comprising such material. Furthermore, the invention relates to a laminated packaging material comprising a layer or sheet comprising the low density cellulose material as well as to packaging containers comprising the laminated packaging material. In particular, the invention relates to packaging containers intended for liquid or semi-liquid food packaging, comprising the laminated packaging material.

A vehicle sandwich component with a layered construction having a honeycomb structure. The honeycomb structure may have a first lower honeycomb layer and a second upper honeycomb layer, the first lower honeycomb layer has at least one edge portion protruding laterally in the transverse direction beyond the second upper honeycomb layer, and a central honeycomb layer region or compression region which has a reduced thickness, achieved by compression, in relation to the edge portion and on which the second upper honeycomb layer is provided. Also, method for producing a vehicle-sandwich component of this type.
