A process for making a unitary fibrous structure comprises steps of: providing a fibrous web comprising a plurality of cellulosic fibers randomly distributed throughout the fibrous web and a plurality of synthetic fibers randomly distributed throughout the fibrous web; and causing co-joining of at least a portion of the synthetic fibers with the cellulosic fibers and the synthetic fibers, wherein the co-joining occurs in areas having a non-random and repeating pattern. A unitary fibrous structure comprises a plurality of cellulosic fibers randomly distributed throughout the fibrous structure, and a plurality of synthetic fibers distributed throughout the fibrous structure in a non-random repeating pattern. In another embodiment, a unitary fibrous structure comprises a plurality of cellulosic fibers randomly distributed throughout the fibrous structure, and a plurality of synthetic fibers randomly distributed throughout the fibrous structure, wherein at least a portion of the plurality of synthetic fibers comprises co-joined fibers, which are co-joined with the synthetic fibers and / or with the cellulosic fibers.

A method of making a fabric-creped absorbent cellulosic sheet comprising: a) compactively dewatering a papermaking furnish to form a nascent web having an apparently random distribution of papermaking fiber; b) applying the dewatered web having the apparently random fiber distribution to a translating transfer surface moving at a first speed; c) fabric-creping the web from the transfer surface at a consistency of from about 30 to about 60 percent utilizing a patterned creping fabric, the creping step occurring under pressure in a fabric creping nip defined between the transfer surface and the creping fabric wherein the fabric is traveling at a second speed slower than the speed of said transfer surface, the fabric pattern, nip parameters, velocity delta and web consistency being selected such that the web is creped from the transfer surface and redistributed on the creping fabric to form a web with a drawable reticulum.

Embossed multi-ply fibrous structures and methods for making such embossed multi-ply fibrous structures are provided.

Embossed fibrous structures, processes for making such fibrous structures and sanitary tissue products comprising such fibrous structures

Fibrous structures that exhibit a Dry Burst of greater than 360 g as measured according to the Dry Burst Test Method and optionally, a Total Dry Tensile of less than 2450 g / 76.2 mm and / or a Machine Direction (MD) Dry Tensile of less than 1520 g / 76.2 mm and / or a Geometric Mean GM) Total Dry Tensile of less than 1180 g / 76.2 mm as measured according to the Tensile Strength Test Method are provided.

A method of making a fabric-creped absorbent cellulosic sheet is provided which includes dewatering a papermaking furnish and partially drying the web without wet-pressing before applying it to a translating transfer surface moving at a first speed. The process further includes fabric-creping the web from the transfer surface at a consistency of from about 30 to about 60 percent utilizing a creping fabric, the creping step occurring under pressure in a creping nip defined between the transfer surface and the creping fabric wherein the fabric is traveling at a second speed slower than the speed of said transfer surface, the fabric pattern, nip parameters, velocity delta and web consistency being selected such that the web is creped from the surface and redistributed on the creping fabric. After creping, the web is dried, preferably with a plurality of can dryers to a consistency of at least about 90 percent while it is held in the creping fabric.

A paper web having discrete elevated elements molded in the z-direction is generally disclosed, along with methods of making the same. The molded web has improved bulk retention when subjected to compression in the z-direction. The discrete elevated elements can be dome-shaped elevated elements and / or elevated elements having at least one vertical sidewall to form an aesthetically pleasing figure. The paper web can be an uncreped through air dried paper web. The molding of the paper web can result from the contour of the dryer fabric, such as a nonwoven dryer fabric.

The present invention relates to absorbent tissue-towel paper products comprising one essentially continuous ply of fibrous structure having a first surface and a second surface, wherein the product has an HFS absorbency greater than 8 g / g and the first surface exhibits an embossment height of at least 650 μm and the second surface exhibits an embossment height of at least about 650 μm.

Sanitary tissue products employing fibrous structures that exhibit novel compressibility properties alone and in combination with plate stiffness properties and methods for making same.

A method and apparatus of manufacturing a web which is striped with add-on material, comprising: a first slurry supply which forms a sheet of base web and moves the sheet along a first path; a second slurry supply; and a moving orifice applicator operative so as to repetitively discharge the second slurry upon the moving sheet of base web. The moving orifice applicator includes a chamber box arranged to establish a reservoir of the second slurry across the first path, an endless belt having slotted orifices, the endless belt received through the chamber box, and a drive arrangement operative upon the endless belt to continuously move the orifices along an endless-path and repetitively through the chamber box. The orifices communicate with the reservoir to discharge the second slurry as bands of add-on material to the base web. The slotted orifices can be spaced apart along the belt and oriented so as to be angled with respect to the travel direction of the belt and parallel to each other.

Fibrous structures and / or sanitary tissue products comprising such fibrous structures, wherein the fibrous structures comprise a design, particularly a surface design, and processes for making such fibrous structures and / or sanitary tissue products are provided.

Fibrous structures that exhibit a Geometric Mean Elongation of greater than 14.95% as measured according to the Elongation Test Method are provided.

Embossed fibrous structures that exhibit a Dry Burst of greater than 270 g as measured according to the Dry Burst Test Method and more particularly to embossed fibrous structures that exhibit a Dry Burst of greater than 270 g as measured according to the Dry Burst Test Method and a Total Dry Tensile of less than 2375 g / 76.2 mm and / or a Geometric Mean Total Dry Tensile of less than 1130 g / 76.2 mm as measured according to the Tensile Strength Test Method are provided.

Soft durable paper towels are disclosed. These paper towels can be produced, for example, using a throughdried basesheet, such as an uncreped throughdried sheet, in which both outer surfaces have been pattern-printed with a binder and at least one outer surface of the sheet is creped.
