UNCREPED TISSUE PAPER HAVING A HIGH WET: DRY TENSILE STRENGTH RATIO

Title:

UNCREPED TISSUE PAPER HAVING A HIGH WET: DRY TENSILE STRENGTH RATIO

Document Type and Number:

WIPO Patent Application WO2002095131

Kind Code:

A3

Abstract:

The ratio of the wet tensile strength to the dry tensile strength of uncreped throughdried tissues and towels can be increased by treating the papermaking pulp with a debonder, a wet strength agent and a dry strength agent. The properties of the resulting product can be manipulated to either provide a product with normal degree of softness as measured by the machine direction sheet stiffness and a high wet strength, or a normal degree of wet strength and a higher degree of softness.
