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.

A method of manufacturing a wrapper for an aerosol generating article includes applying an adhesive to one surface of a metal layer and attaching a first paper layer thereto, applying the adhesive to the other surface of the metal layer and attaching thereto a second paper layer different from the first paper layer, and drying the adhesive applied between the metal layer and the first paper layer and the adhesive applied between the metal layer and the second paper layer.

The present inventive concept relates to a process for manufacturing a fiber based cellulose web for dry forming comprising. The process comprises providing a wet cellulose pulp; free drying said wet cellulose pulp to a free dried cellulose pulp, wherein said free drying provides a curl to fibres of said free dried cellulose pulp; separating said free dried cellulose pulp into individual free dried cellulose pulp fibres; and forming said individual free dried cellulose pulp fibres into a cellulose web.

A buffer material is a material including a buffer sheet that contains cellulose fibers and a binding material binding the cellulose fibers and has a sheet shape, and a nonwoven fabric sheet that is provided on at least one surface side of the buffer sheet and is formed of nonwoven fabric, in which the cellulose fibers are aligned in a direction intersecting a thickness direction of the buffer sheet, and the alignment direction of the cellulose fibers is along a direction in which an external force is received.

A laminate comprising: a gas barrier layer (I) comprising a modified starch (A) having an average amylose content of 45% by mass or more and a water-soluble polymer (B); and a substrate (II) adjacent to the gas barrier layer (I), wherein the laminate exhibits a degree of biodegradation of 80% or more in a biodegradability test in accordance with ISO 14855-1.

Layered, and optionally dispersible fibrous structures containing fibrous elements that exhibit different physical characteristics, such as different average diameters as measured by the Average Diameter Test Method described herein, different surface characteristics, different lengths, different sources (naturally occurring versus non-naturally occurring and/or spun versus non-spun), sanitary tissue products employing such layered, optionally dispersible fibrous structures, and methods for making same are provided.

A fibrous structure is disclosed. The fibrous structure exhibits a plurality of discrete knuckles arranged in a pattern of repeat units. The repeat units can include a plurality of rows arranged orthogonally in an X-Y plane, each row having a portion of the discrete knuckles, and each discrete knuckle separated from adjacent discrete knuckles in a row by a distance. Each of the discrete knuckles within the repeat unit can have substantially the same shape and size; and wherein the distance between at least two adjacent discrete knuckles in each row are non-uniform such that the repeat unit exhibits varying pillow width distances along the rows in both the X and Y axes.
