The present disclosure relates to an absorbent tissue paper product comprising one ply being an essentially continuous ply of fibrous structure having a first side and a second side, the first side having a surface roughness arithmetical mean height (Sa1), and said second side having a surface roughness arithmetical mean height (Sa2). Said ply has a micro-embossed structure and a difference between the surface roughness arithmetical mean heights of the first side and the second side is 7 μm or less (|Sa1−Sa2|≤7 μm), and said ply having a bulk of at least 7.5 cm3/g. The disclosure also relates to a method and an apparatus for producing such an absorbent tissue paper product.

A multi-ply tissue paper product includes at least three plies. The tissue paper product includes a first inner ply being a creped ribbed ply and having a basis weight of 10 to 30 gsm, and a first outermost ply and a second outermost ply on each side of said inner ply, the first and second outermost plies being non-ribbed plies, wherein a creped ribbed ply is a ply including ribs and valleys providing an average core roughness Rk in the range 10 to 300 μm, and peaks being 4 to 12 per cm as measured along said first direction; and wherein a non-ribbed ply is a ply displaying no parallel ribs and valleys extending continuously along any direction of the ply or displaying parallel ribs and valleys extending continuously along any direction of the ply, the ribs and valleys providing peaks being less than 4 per cm.

A method for forming a dispersible nonwoven substrate comprising the steps of: a) emulsion polymerizing at least one mono-ethylenically unsaturated monomer an emulsion polymer; and b) neutralizing the emulsion polymer with a neutralizer selected from the group consisting of an amine having a pKb of 4 to 7, an alkali hydroxide, and combinations thereof to form the aqueous nonwoven binder; c) contacting a nonwoven substrate with said aqueous nonwoven binder to form a contacted nonwoven substrate; d) heating the contacted nonwoven substrate to a temperature of from 120° C. to 220° C. to form a heated contacted nonwoven substrate; and e) immersing the contacted heated nonwoven substrate in an aqueous medium having a final pH of less than 5.5 to provide a dispersible nonwoven substrate wherein the aqueous medium contains a buffer comprising a mixture of citric acid and sodium citrate is disclosed.

Articles, such as sanitary tissue products, including fibrous structures, and more particularly articles including fibrous structures having a plurality of fibrous elements wherein the article exhibits differential cellulose content throughout the thickness of the article 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.

Disclosed are tissue products comprising a single ply tissue web that has been prepared by a creping process and more preferably by a print creping process adapted to dispose a non-crosslinked latex polymer on at least one of the outer surfaces of the tissue web. The creped single ply tissue products generally have a low degree of stiffness, such as a Stiffness Index less than about 8.00, and are highly durable, such as a Durability Index greater than about 12.0. In other instances, the tissue products may have very low levels of lint or dust, such as a Slough less than about 4.00 mg, even at basis weights from about 45 to about 55 grams per square meter (gsm) and tensile strengths from 600 to 1,200 g/3″.

Soft, durable and bulky tissue products comprising non-wood fibers and more particularly high yield hesperaloe pulp fibers are disclosed. The tissue products preferably comprise at least about 5 percent, by weight of the product, high yield hesperaloe pulp fiber and have relatively modest tensile strengths, such as a geometric mean tensile (GMT) greater than about 1,000 g/3″, and improved durability and cross-machine direction (CD) properties, such as a CD Stretch greater than about 10 percent. Additionally, at the foregoing tensile strengths the products are not overly stiff. For example the tissue products may have a Stiffness Index less than about 10.0.

Novel fibrous structures that contain filaments, and optionally, solid additives, such as fibers, for example wood pulp fibers, sanitary tissue products comprising such fibrous structures, and methods for making such fibrous structures and/or sanitary tissue products are provided.

Sanitary tissue product rolls that exhibit novel combinations of physical properties, such as Moment of Inertia, Roll Density, and optionally Roll Diameter, such that the sanitary tissue product rolls meet consumers' needs, and method for making such novel sanitary tissue product rolls and marketing such novel sanitary tissue product rolls are provided.
