Disclosed is a tissue paper product, including between two and four plies, including at least a first ply and a second ply, the two plies, three plies, or four plies being ply-bonded, to form the tissue paper product, the first ply and the second ply being the outermost plies of the tissue paper product, a grammage of the tissue paper product being in a range of 24 to 50 g/m.sup.2 if a total number of plies of the tissue paper product is 2, in a range of 34 to 65 g/m.sup.2 if a total number of plies of the tissue paper product is 3, and in a range of 55 to 95 g/m.sup.2 if a total number of plies of the tissue paper product is 4, the first ply being a structured paper ply.

This disclosure relates to a tissue paper product including between two and four plies, including at least a first ply and a second ply, the two plies, three plies, or four plies being ply-bonded to form the tissue paper product, the first ply and the second ply being the outermost plies of the tissue paper product, a grammage of the tissue paper product being to 50 g/m2 if a total number of plies of the tissue paper product is 2, 34 to 65 g/m2 if a total number of plies of the tissue paper product is 3, and 55 to 95 g/m2 if a total number of plies of the tissue paper product is 4, the first ply being made of Conventional Wet Press (CWP) paper that has been embossed with a heated embossing roll, the second ply being a structured paper ply.

A thermoplastic film which exhibits elastic-like behavior along at least one axis when stretched or elongated and then released. The thermoplastic film comprises a plurality of raised rib-like elements extending in a direction perpendicular to a main surface of the thermoplastic film. The thermoplastic film further includes a plurality of web areas positioned about the plurality of raised rib-like elements. The plurality of raised rib-like elements and plurality of web areas are arranged in a complex pattern. The complex pattern provides visual and tactile cues as the films are stretched or elongated. The complex pattern can cause the thermoplastic film to have a complex stretch profile.

A multiple-ply thermoplastic film which exhibits elastic-like behavior along at least one axis when stretched or elongated and then released. The thermoplastic film comprises a plurality of raised rib-like elements extending in a direction perpendicular to a main surface of the thermoplastic film. The thermoplastic film further includes a plurality of web areas positioned about the plurality of raised rib-like elements. The plurality of raised rib-like elements and plurality of web areas are arranged in a complex pattern. The complex pattern, when stretched or elongated and then released, can cause areas of billowing and delamination between plies of the multiple-ply thermoplastic film. The resulting billowed and delaminated areas form billow pockets for capturing liquids that can capture liquids when one of the plies is punctured.

Disclosed is a tissue paper product including at least three plies with a top ply and bottom ply as outermost plies, and an inner ply between the top and bottom plies, a basis weight of the tissue paper product being 30-150. The top ply being embossed with at least two types of embossments including first embossments with a first height and second embossments with a second height, the first height being larger than the second height, and the bottom ply is embossed, the inner ply and the top ply being bonded with the bottom ply at tips of the first embossments with an adhesive, such as a lamination glue, or the inner ply, the top ply, and the bottom ply are ply-bonded with mechanical bonding, at least one of the top ply and the bottom ply being embossed by a heated embossing roll.

Disclosed are multi-ply embossed tissue products having improved softness, strength, embossment clarity and/or embossment height compared to prior art embossed tissue products. The multi-ply tissue products may comprise an embossed tissue ply having a basis weight less than about 25 grams per square meter (gsm) and relatively deep embossments, such as an embossment height from about 500 to about 1,000 μm and relatively narrow bottom portions compared to top portions. The combination of these elements provides an aesthetically pleasing and well-defined embossment, while improving important tissue product properties such as sheet and roll bulk and softness.

Disclosed are multi-ply tissue products comprising a non-crosslinked binder that are durable and dispersible. The products generally have a Slosh time less than 2 minutes, such as less than about 60 seconds, such as less than about 45 seconds. Surprisingly, the foregoing Slosh times are achieved despite the tissue products having relatively high cross-machine direction (CD) wet tensile strength, such as greater than about 100 g/3″. Typically, increasing wet tensile strength, particularly wet CD tensile strength, negatively effects dispersability and increases Slosh time. Despite this trend, the present invention surprisingly provides a tissue product having a relatively high degree of wet strength and good dispersability.

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.
