    HISTORIC
    [001] For products woven into rolls, such as toilet papers and paper towels, consumers generally prefer firm rolls of large diameter. A firm roll demonstrates a better quality product, and the large diameter shows that there is enough material to provide value to the consumer. However, from the paper manufacturer's point of view, supplying a large, firm roll is a challenge. In order to provide a large diameter roll while maintaining an acceptable manufacturing cost, the paper manufacturer must produce a finished paper roll with a higher roll density. One way to increase the roll density is to loosen the paper loosely. Loose-rolled rolls, however, have low firmness and deform easily, making them unattractive to consumers. Therefore, there is a need for paper rolls with higher density, as well as greater firmness.
    [002] In addition, it is desirable to provide a roll paper product having a sheet of sufficiently high base weight paper that is also soft. Providing a paper product that is perceived as being soft, the paper manufacturer faces several options, including changing the topography of the paper product's surface so that its user perceives it as being smooth.
    [003] Although it is desirable to provide a sheet having a high base weight, density, good roll firmness and a smooth surface, the improvement of one of these properties usually happens at the expense of the other. For example, as the weight of the fabric sheets increases, obtaining a high-density roll becomes more difficult, especially when manufacturing uncracked air-dried wefts, since a large part of the paper structure volume is reached by means of from molding the web sheet to paper making and its volume is reduced by increasing the base weight of the sheet. Therefore, the manufacturer must endeavor to economically produce these paper rolls that meet the normally contradictory parameters of large diameter, good firmness, high quality sheets and acceptable cost.

DEFINITIONS
    [0013] As used here, the term "paper product" refers to products made from paper wefts and includes toilet papers, bath tissue, facial tissues, paper towels, heavy cleaning paper towels, paper towel for cleaning food areas, napkins, medical pads and other similar products. Paper products can comprise one, two, three or more layers.
    [0014] As used here, the terms "paper web" and "paper sheet" refer to a sheet material suitable for use as a paper product.
    [0015] As used here, the term “geometric mean of tensile strength” (GMT) refers to the square root of the product of the weft tension in the machine direction and in the machine cross direction, which is determined as described in the section of Test Methods.
    [0016] As used here, the term "thickness" is the representative thickness of a single sheet (thickness of paper products comprising two or more layers is the thickness of a single sheet of paper product comprising all layers), measured accordingly with the T402 TAPPI test method using an automated Microgage EMVECO 200-A micrometer (EMVECO, Inc., Newberg, OR). The micrometer has an anvil diameter of 2.22 "(56.4 millimeters) and an anvil pressure of 132 grams square inch (per 6.45 square centimeters (2.0 kPa)).
    [0017] As used here, the term "weight" generally refers to the total dry weight per unit area of a paper and is generally expressed in grams per square meter (g / m2). Weight is measured using the TAPPI test method T-220.
    [0018] As used here, the term “leaf density” refers to the quotient of thickness (μm) divided by the totally dry weight (g / m2). The resulting leaf density is expressed in cubic centimeters per gram (cm3 / g).
    [0019] As used herein, the term "roll density" refers to the volume of paper divided by its mass in the rolled roll. The roll density is calculated by multiplying the pi (3.142) by the amount obtained by calculating the difference in the diameter of the squared roll (cm2) and the outer diameter of the squared core (cm2) divided by 4, divided by the length of the sheet (cm ) multiplied by the number of leaves, multiplied by the totally dry weight of the leaf (g / m2).
    [0020] As used in this document, the term “slope” refers to the slope of the line resulting from plotting stress versus stretching, and is a result of MTS TestWorks® throughout the process to determine tensile strength as described in the Test Methods section of this document. The slope is reported in units of grams (g) per unit width of the sample (inches), and is measured as the gradient of the least squares line, which fits at the points of load tension corrected between a force generated by the specimen, of 70 g to 157 grams (0.687 N to 1.540 N) divided by the width of the specimen. Slopes are generally reported here as having units of grams per 3 ”of sample width or g / 3”.
    [0021] As used in this document, the term “Slope of the geometric mean” (Slope MG) refers, in general, to the square root of the slope product in the machine direction and in the machine's transversal direction.
    [0022] As used here, the term "stretch" generally refers to the ratio between the elongation with clearance correction of a sample at the point that generates its peak load divided by the length of the meter with clearance correction in any orientation. Stretching is a result of MTS TestWorks® throughout the process to determine the tensile strength, as described in the Test Methods section of this document. The stretch is reported as a percentage and can be indicated by stretching in the machine direction (MDS), stretching in the transversal direction of the machine (CDS), or as geometric mean stretch (GMS), which is the square root of the stretch product in the direction of the machine and stretching in the transversal direction of the machine.
    [0023] As used here, the term "roll firmness," generally refers to the ability of a roll paper product to withstand deformation when hit, which is determined as described in the Test Methods section.
    [0024] As used here, “roll structure” generally refers to the overall appearance and quality of a roll paper product and is the product of roll density (expressed in cm3 / g) and thickness (expressed in cm), divided by firmness (expressed in cm). The roller structure is generally referred to here without reference to units.
    [0025] As used here, the term "stiffness index" refers to the quotient of the mean geometric slope (having units of g / 3 ") divided by the geometric mean of tensile strength (having units of g / 3").
    [0026] As used here, the term "surface smoothness" refers to the topography of the filtered surface image, measured as described in the Test Method section. The smoothness of the surface is expressed by three different values - Sa, Sq and S90 - and can have units of millimeters (mm) or microns (μm). DETAILED DESCRIPTION
    [0027] Density is an important property for the ability to absorb and touch wefts and paper products. Increasing the density of wefts and paper products, however, is often achieved at the expense of other properties such as surface smoothness. Traditionally, the paper manufacturer has needed to use high-topography fabrics for papermaking to achieve high density. Although increasing the thickness of the paper web at a certain weight, and therefore the density of the sheet, the use of high-topography fabrics often gives the web a three-dimensional surface that is not particularly smooth.
    [0028] The present inventors surprisingly recently discovered that certain papermaking fabrics and, in particular, air-dried fabrics having patterns topically arranged on them can be used to produce wefts and paper products that are smooth and have high density . Thus, in certain embodiments, the present publication provides a paper web that has a sheet density greater than about 12 cubic centimeters per gram (cm3 / g), such as from about 12 to about 20 cm3 / g , and a smoothness value of the S90 surface less than about 105 μm. In other embodiments, the publication provides roll paper products formed by paper webs arranged in a spiral, where the roll paper products have an improved roll density, greater than about 14 cm3 / g, and better firmness of roll, such as from about 8 to about 10 mm.
    [0029] According to certain embodiments, high density paper webs are manufactured using an endless papermaking belt, such as a TAD (through-air drying) fabric, which has a three-dimensional pattern laid on the same. Preferably, the three-dimensional pattern is arranged on the contact surface of the web to support and structure the wet fibrous web during manufacture. In a particularly preferred embodiment, the three-dimensional web contact structure comprises a plurality of elevations distributed over the entire web contact surface of the belt and forming joints of about 15 to about 35 percent, in a form of particularly preferred embodiment of about 18 to about 30 percent, and in a particularly preferred embodiment, about 20 to about 25 percent of the weft contact surface.
    [0030] In addition to the elevations, the weft contact surface preferably comprises a plurality of continuous landing areas between the elevations. Landing areas are delimited by elevations and coextensive with the plane of the upper surface of the belt.
    [0031] Each elevation has a first dimension in a first direction (x) in the plane of the upper surface area, a second dimension in a second direction (y) in the plane of the upper surface area, the first and second directions (x, y) are at right angles to each other, an average height (h) and an area (a), measured in the plane of the upper surface area, these dimensions being defined when the belt is in an uncompressed state.
    [0032] A high density papermaking belt according to the present publication is illustrated in FIG. 1, in one embodiment, the endless belt 10 has two main elements: a transport structure 30 and three three-dimensional design elements 40 (hereinafter "elevations"). The transport structure 30 has two opposing surfaces - a weft contact surface 50 and a machine contact surface. Generally, the design elements 40 are arranged on the weft contact surface 50. When the belt 10 comprises an air-drying fabric, the weft contact surface 50 supports the embryonic paper web, while the opposite surface, the contact surface with the machine, contact the "throughdryer" dryer.
    [0033] The conveyor structure 30 has two main dimensions - a machine direction ("MD"), which is the direction within the plane of the belt 10 parallel to the main direction of displacement of the paper web during manufacture and a transverse direction ("CD"), which is usually orthogonal to the direction of the machine.
    [0034] The transport structure is preferably a woven fabric, and in a particularly preferred embodiment, a substantially planar woven fabric, such as a smooth multilayer woven fabric 30 having warp yarns 32 woven with weft yarns 34 in a simple 1x1 braiding pattern. An exemplary multilayer fabric is described in U.S. Patent No. 8,141,595, the content of which is incorporated herein in a manner consistent with this publication. In the fabric 30, the plain braided load-bearing layer is made so that the highest points of both load-bearing weft threads 34 and the load-bearing warp threads 32 are coplanar and coincide with the plane 70.
    [0035] As illustrated in FIGS. 2 and 3, the design elements 40 are attached to the transport structure 30 and extend outwardly from the paper contact side 50 and thence in the z direction. Generally, the design elements 40 are applied topically to the transport structure 30. Especially suitable methods of topical application are the printing or extrusion of polymeric materials on the surface. Alternative methods include applying cast or cured films, weaving, embroidering or sewing polymeric fibers on the surface for a design element. Specifically suitable polymeric materials include materials that can be firmly adhered to the transport structure and are resistant to thermal degradation under the operating conditions of a typical fabric dryer, and are reasonably flexible, such as silicones, polyesters, polyurethanes, epoxies, polyphenolsulfones and polyetherketones .
    [0036] The design element 40 extends in the z direction (generally orthogonal both in the machine direction and in the machine direction) above the plane 70 of the transport structure 30. The design elements 40 can have straight side walls or tapered side walls and can be made of any material suitable to withstand the temperatures, pressures and deformations that occur during the papermaking process. As illustrated in FIG. 3, the design elements 40 are similarly sized, and have generally straight parallel side walls 42, giving the elements 40 a width (w) and a height (h). For the embodiments described here, the design elements 40 preferably have a height between 0.6 and 3.0 mm, preferably between 0.7 and 1.4 mm and, in a particularly preferred embodiment between 0.8 and 1.0 mm. Height (h) is generally measured as the distance between the plane of the transport structure and the upper plane of the elevations.
    [0037] In addition to having a height (h), the elevations 40 have a width (w). The width is measured generally perpendicular to the main dimension of the elevation 40 within the plane of the belt 10 at a given location. Where element 40 has a generally square or rectangular cross section, the width (w) is generally measured as the distance between the two flat side walls 42, 44 that form element 40. In cases where the element has no flat side walls , the width is measured at the point where the element 40 comes into contact with the conveyor 30.
    [0038] In general, for the embodiments described here, the design elements 40 have a width of about 0.6 to 3.1 mm, in a particularly preferred embodiment, from about 0.7 to about 1.5 mm, and even more preferably, from about 0.8 to about 1.1 mm.
    [0039] In a particularly preferred embodiment, the design elements 40 preferably have flat side walls 42, 44 such that the cross section of the design element has a square or rectangular shape. However, it should be understood that the design element can have other cross-sectional shapes, such as triangular, convex or concave, which can also be useful in the manufacture of high-density paper product in accordance with this publication. Accordingly, in a particularly preferred embodiment, the design elements 40 have flat side walls 42, 44 and a square cross section, where the width (w) and the height (h) are equal and vary from about 0, 6 to 3.0 mm, in a particularly preferred embodiment, from about 0.7 to about 1.4 mm, and even more preferably, from about 0.8 to about 1.0 mm.
    [0040] Still with reference to FIG. 2, a preferred embodiment is shown that illustrates the spacing and arrangement of the elevations 40. In general, none of the elevations 40 intersect and preferably are parallel to each other. As such, in the illustrated embodiment, the adjacent side walls of individual design elements are equally spaced apart from each other.
    [0041] For the embodiments described here, the spacing between the centers of the design elements (also referred to here as pitch or simply as p) is about 1.7 to about 20 mm from each other, such as about from 2.0 to about 10 mm to each other, and in a particularly preferred embodiment of about 3.8 to about 4.4 mm to each other, in a direction generally orthogonal to these surfaces. This spacing will result in a paper web that generates maximum thickness when made from conventional cellulosic fibers. In addition, this arrangement provides a paper web that has a three-dimensional surface topography, yet a relatively uniform density.
    [0042] As further illustrated in FIG. 2, the design elements 40 can occur as wave patterns that are arranged in phase with each other, such that p is approximately constant. In other embodiments, the design elements can form a wave pattern, where the adjacent design elements are offset from each other. Regardless of the particular pattern of design elements, or whether the adjacent patterns are in or out of phase with each other, the design elements are separated from each other by a certain minimum distance. Preferably, the distance between the design elements 40 is greater than 0.7 mm and in a particularly preferred embodiment, greater than about 1.0 mm, and even more preferably, greater than about 2.0 , such as from about 2.0 to about 6.0 mm, and even more preferably, from about 3.0 to about 4.5 mm.
    [0043] Whenever the design elements 40 are like a wave, such as those illustrated in FIG. 1, the design elements have an amplitude (A) and a wavelength (L). The amplitude can vary from about 2.0 to about 200 mm, in a particularly preferred embodiment, from about 10 mm to about 40 mm, and even more preferably, from about 18 mm to about 22 mm . Similarly, the wavelength can vary from about 20 to about 500 mm, in a particularly preferred embodiment from about 50 mm to about 200 mm, and even more preferably, from about 80 mm to about 120 mm mm.
    [0044] Preferably, a plurality of design elements are arranged in the transport structure and extend substantially over a dimension thereof, and each element in the plurality is spaced from adjacent elements. In this way, the elements can cover the entire machine transverse direction and can wrap the endless belt in the machine direction. For example, as illustrated in FIG. 4, the elements 40 are oriented substantially parallel to the machine direction of the belt 10.
    [0045] The polymeric material or other material used to form the design elements 40, can be applied and attached to the transport structure in any appropriate way. Another way of coupling and joining the design element to the transport structure is described in US Patent Application No. 10 / 535,537, the content of which is incorporated herein for reference in a manner consistent with this publication. Thus, in a particularly preferred embodiment, the design element is formed by extruding or printing a polymeric material onto the transport structure. In other embodiments, the design element can be produced, at least in some regions, by extruding two or more polymeric materials. Suitable polymeric materials include materials such as silicones, polyesters, polyurethanes, epoxies, polyphenolsulfones and polyetherketones.
    [0046] In addition to design elements 40, belt 10 also comprises landing areas 60, which are delimited by design elements 40. Landing areas 60 allow water to be removed from the web by applying differential fluid pressure , by means of evaporation mechanisms, or both when the drying air passes through the web while it is on the belt 10 or vacuum is applied through the belt 10.
    [0047] The arrangement of design elements 40 and landing areas 60 produces a papermaking fabric that has a three-dimensional surface topography that, when used to form a paper web, produces a web having a relatively uniform density, and yet, a three-dimensional surface topography. The resulting web has an improved density, more smoothness, and improved surface smoothness, compared to webs and products made with prior art. Similarly, roll products prepared in accordance with the present publication may have greater roll firmness and density and still maintain the properties of surface smoothness and robustness.
    [0048] For example, the present publication offers single layer paper product having an improved thickness and density compared to commercially available single layer paper product, while also having reduced stiffness. These improvements become better roll products, as summarized in Table 1 below. TABLE 1


    [0049] Consequently, in certain embodiments, rolled paper products may comprise a single or multiple layer paper web (such as two, three or four layers) having a weight greater than about 35 g / m2, such as from about 35 to about 60 g / m2, and in a particularly preferred embodiment, from about 38 to about 50 g / m2.
    [0050] Roll paper products arranged comprising a single layer paper web arranged in a spiral generally have a roll firmness of less than about 10 mm, such as from about 7 mm to about 10 mm, and in a form of particularly preferred embodiment, from about 8 mm to about 9 mm. In a particular embodiment, for example, the publication offers a roll paper product, comprising a single layer paper web arranged in a spiral, with a weight of about 35 to about 50 g / m2, the roll characterized by have a roll firmness of about 8 mm to about 10 mm. Within the roll firmness range above, rollers made following this publication do not appear excessively smooth and "soft", as this may be undesirable for some consumers during some applications.
    [0051] In the past, at the roll firmness levels above, paper products arranged in a spiral tended to have a low roll density and / or poor softness properties. However, it has now been found that rolled paper products having a firmness of 7 to 10 mm and comprising single layer webs having weights greater than about 35 g / m2 can be produced in such a way that the product has a roll density greater than 10 cm3 / g, such as from about 10 to about 20 cm3 / g, and in a particularly preferred embodiment, from about 14 to about 18 cm3 / g, even when spiraling under tension. For example, products arranged in a spiral comprising a single layer web with a weight of about 35 g / m2 to about 50 g / m2 can have a roll density of about 12 cm3 / g and still maintain a roll firmness greater than about 10 mm, like from about 8 mm to about 10 mm.
    [0052] To produce roll products having a roll density and firmness, the paper web itself preferably has an improved sheet density. For example, single layer base sheets, prepared as described herein, can be converted into the roll paper product, maintaining much of its sheet density, which is preferably greater than about 12 cm3 / g, such as as from about 12 to about 20 cm3 / g and in a particularly preferred embodiment of about 14 to about 18 cm3 / g. In this way, the base sheets can be subjected to calendering or the like, to soften the web while maintaining a sufficient amount of sheet density.
    [0053] Despite having improved properties, the paper webs prepared in accordance with the present invention remain strong enough to withstand use by a consumer. For example, paper webs prepared in accordance with this publication may have a geometric mean tensile strength (GMT) greater than about 700 g / 3 ”, such as from about 800 to about 1500 g / 3 ", And in a particularly preferred embodiment, from about 900 to about 1200 g / 3". When the wefts in this publication are converted into a roll paper product, they maintain a significant amount of tensile strength, such that the decrease in geometric mean tensile strength during the conversion of the weft into the finished product is less than about 30 percent and in a particularly preferred embodiment less than about 25 percent, such as about 10 to about 30 percent. As such, the finished products preferably have a geometric mean of tensile strength greater than 700 g / 3 ”, such as from about 800 to about 1200 g / 3”, and in a particularly preferred embodiment, of about from 900 to about 1100 g / 3 ”.
    [0054] In yet other embodiments, this publication offers paper webs with better density, smoothness and durability. Improved durability, such as increased stretching in the machine direction and in the machine direction (MDS and CDS) and improved smoothness can be measured as a reduction in the slope of the traction-strain curve or the stiffness index. For example, paper webs prepared as described herein generally have an average geometric slope of less than about 6,000 g / 3 ", such as from about 4,000 to about 6,000 g / 3", and in one embodiment particularly preferred from about 4,200 to about 5,000 g / 3 ”. Spiral-wrapped single layer wefts in roll products generally have an average geometric slope of less than about 10,000 g / 3 ”, such as from about 3,000 to about 9,000 g / 3”, and in a particularly particular embodiment preferred, from about 4,000 to about 8,000 g / 3 ”. Spiral-wrapped double layer wefts in roll products generally have a mean geometric slope of less than about 9,000 g / 3 ”, such as from about 4,000 to about 8,000 g / 3”.
    [0055] Although the paper webs of this publication generally have lower geometric mean slopes, compared to the prior art webs, the webs maintain a sufficient amount of tensile strength to remain useful to the consumer. In this way, the publication provides paper and base sheet products having a low stiffness index. For example, paper webs preferably have a stiffness index of less than about 8.0, such as from about 5.0 to 7.0 wax, and in a particularly preferred embodiment, from about 4 , 0 to about 6.5. When converted to roll products, the paper web is often slightly hardened. However, the amount of stiffness introduced into the wefts of the invention during conversion is minimal, as single-layer paper products have a stiffness index of less than about 8.0, such as about 4.0 the wax from 7.0, and in a particularly preferred embodiment, from about 5.0 to about 6.5. In a particularly preferred embodiment, the present publication provides a single layer paper web having a totally dry weight greater than about 35 g / m2, a stiffness index of about 4 to about 8 and a GMT of about 700 to about 1000 g / 3 ”.
    [0056] Similarly, the paper wefts that are converted to the finished product, for example by calendering or the like, generally have a stretch in the machine direction and transversal to that of the machine (MDS and CDS, respectively) in relation to the base sheet . However, the reduction in CDS and MDS is relatively minimal for products prepared in accordance with this publication. For example, in certain embodiments, the base sheets may have a geometric mean stretch (GMS) greater than about 12, such as about 12 to about 30 and, in a particularly preferred embodiment, about from 16 to about 25 percent. The corresponding single layer finished product preferably has a GMS greater than about 10, such as from about 10 to about 20, and in a particularly preferred embodiment, from about 14 to about 18 percent.
    [0057] As noted earlier, wefts prepared as described herein can be converted to a multilayer or single-layer product having improved properties than the prior art. In one embodiment, the present publication features a roll paper product comprising a two-layer paper web wound in a spiral, the paper web characterized by having a totally dry weight greater than about 35 g / m2, a sheet density greater than about 15 cm3 / g and a stiffness index of less than about 7. In a particularly preferred embodiment, the roll product has a roll density greater than about 15 cm3 / g, and a roll firmness of less than about 10 mm, such as about 8 to about 10 mm. For comparison, the improved properties of multilayer paper products are presented in Table 2 below. Table 2

    [0058] In addition to having improved density, stiffness, firmness and the like, the wefts and paper products produced according to the methods established here also have improved tactile properties such as surface smoothness. It is known in the art that the Pacini receptor system at the tip of the human finger is more sensitive to a frequency of about 250 Hz, in which vibrations at or near 250 Hz are experienced as being rough. Thus, the perception of whether the surface of a paper product is rough or smooth depends on the rate at which the user runs his finger over the surface and the wavelength of any surface topography in the web. For example, if a user runs their fingers over the surface of a paper product at a rate of 4 cm / s, a surface topography with a wavelength of about 0.16 mm will be experienced as rough by the Pacini system. .
    [0059] Because of the relationship between the surface topography and the perceived smoothness or roughness, the relative sensation of a plot can be predicted based on its surface topography. The surface topography can be measured using profilometry, for example, the Smoothness Test Method set out below. Profiling is used to generate a digital image of the paper product's surface. The digital image is then filtered using a bandpass filter with 0.095 mm and 0.5 nn cut spatial frequencies to emphasize the spatial frequencies experienced by the human finger as being rougher. The filtered surface image is then analyzed to produce the smoothness values of the surface Sa, Sq and S90, where surfaces with lower values are generally perceived to be softer.
    [0060] Thus, in certain embodiments, the tissue products of the current publication have improved smoothness, with low values of Sa, Sq and / or S90, having also improved the thickness and density of the sheet. For example, in one embodiment, the publication provides a paper product that has a surface smoothness value of Sa less than about 25 μm, a value of Sq less than about 35 μm, a value of S90 less than about 105 μm and a sheet density at 15 cm3 / g. In other embodiments, the publication provides a paper product that has a surface smoothness value of Sa between about 15 to about 25 µm. In another embodiment, the publication provides a paper product that has a surface smoothness value Sq between about 25 to about 40 µm. In yet another embodiment, the publication provides a paper product that has a S90 surface smoothness value between about 70 to about 120 µm. Table 3 below presents a comparison of surface smoothness, as well as other product properties. TABLE 3

    [0061] In a particularly preferred embodiment, the present publication provides a multilayer paper product that has a thickness greater than about 600 μm, such as from about 600 μm to about 1000 μm, and a smoothness value of the S90 surface less than about 95 μm, such as about 70 to about 95 μm. In yet other embodiments, the present publication provides a single-layer paper product that has an upper sheet density of about 15 cm3 / g, such as about 15 to about 20 cm3 / g and a smooth surface, such that Sa is less than about 22μm, Sq is less than about 35 μm and S90 is less than 100 μm.
    [0062] In still other forms of configuration, the present publication offers a paper product having a sheet density greater than about 15 cm3 / g, such as about 15 to about 20 cm3 / g, and a value S90 surface smoothness less than about 105 μm, such as about 70 to about 105 μm.
    [0063] In addition to providing the foregoing benefits, it is also believed that the formation of a paper web using a belt with a conveyor structure and design elements chosen appropriately, the formation of a fabric web using a conveyor belt which has a conveniently chosen structure and design element, adjustment can be reduced when the wefts are converted into roll product shapes. Reducing the adjustment, in turn, improves certain properties, such as the firmness and density of the rolled product. Usually, the adjustment arises as a result of the use of textured air flow drying screens, which form valleys and edges in the paper web. Although these edges and valleys can provide many benefits to the resulting web, problems sometimes arise when the web is converted into the final forms of the product. For example, when the wefts are converted into roll products, the edges and valleys of a winding are placed on top of the edges and valleys corresponding to the next winding, thus reducing the roll density (increasing the density) and doing the winding. less consistent and controllable product. Thus, in certain embodiments, the present publication offers paper products comprising a paper web with a three-dimensional design elements, the design elements characterized by reducing the adjustment of the web when it is converted into a rolled product.
    [0064] Rolls formed in accordance with this publication generally have a greater roll density at a given roll firmness. In addition, rollers generally have an amazing degree of locking between successive wrappings of the spiral-arranged web, improving the roll structure to a given roll firmness, more specifically allowing less firm rolls to be made without slippage between the wrappings. For example, compared to paper products produced using an air-dried fabric with a displaced joint, the roll paper products of this publication have reduced fit and improved roll structure. A measure of reduced fit and improved roll structure, called the roll structure here, is the product of roll density (expressed in cm3 / g), and thickness (expressed in cm), divided by firmness (expressed in cm ). The rolled paper products of the present invention have a roll structure greater than about 1.0 and, in a particularly preferred embodiment, greater than about 1.25, and in a particularly preferred embodiment, less than about 1.5, such as from about 1.0 to about 2.0, and in particularly preferred embodiments from about 1.2 to about 1.8. Table 4 below presents a comparison between the roll structure of the samples of the invention and the commercially available rolled products. Table 4

    [0065] The wefts useful in the preparation of woven products arranged in a spiral, according to the present publication may vary, depending on the application. In general, the wefts can be made of any type of suitable fiber. For example, the base web may be made of cellulosic fibers, other natural fibers, synthetic fibers and the like. Cellulosic fibers suitable for use in conjunction with this invention include secondary (recycled) fibers for papermaking and virgin fibers for papermaking in all proportions. Such fibers include, but are not limited to, coniferous and hardwood fibers, as well as non-wood fibers. Non-cellulosic synthetic fibers can also be included as part of the supply.
    [0066] Paper wefts made following this publication, can be made with a homogeneous supply of fibers or can be formed by a supply of stratified fibers, producing layers within the single or multiple layer product. Stratified base frames can be formed using equipment known in the art, such as the multilayer inbox. Both the strength and the smoothness of the base web can be adjusted as desired through layered papers, such as those produced from laminated arrival boxes.
    [0067] For example, different fiber supplies can be used in each of the layers, in order to create a layer with the desired characteristics. For example, layers containing hardwood fibers have greater tensile strength than layers containing coniferous fibers. Conifer fibers, on the other hand, can increase the smoothness of the weave. In one embodiment, the single layer base web of the present publication includes a main outer layer and a secondary outer layer containing mainly coniferous fibers. Conifer fibers can be mixed, if desired, with paper decomposed by about 10 weight percent and / or hardwood fibers in an amount up to about 10 weight percent. The base web also includes a middle layer positioned between the main outer layer and the secondary outer layer. The middle layer may contain mainly hardwood fibers. If desired, other fibers, such as high-performance fibers or synthetic fibers, can be mixed with hardwood fibers in an amount of up to about 10 percent by weight.
    [0068] When building a weft with a supply of stratified fiber, the relative weight of each layer may vary, depending on the application. For example, in one embodiment, when building a weft containing three layers, each layer can be from about 15% to about 40% of the total weight of the weft, as from about 25% to about 35% of the weight total plot.
    [0069] Moisture resistant resins can be added to the supply as desired to increase the moisture resistance of the final product. Useful moisture-resistant resins include diethylenetriamine (DETA), triethylenetetramine (TETA), tetraethylenepentamine (TEPA), epichlorohydrin, polyamide-epichlorohydrin (PAE) resins, or any combination of these or any other resin to be considered in these resin families . Particularly preferred moisture-resistant resins are polyamide-epichlorohydrin (PAE) resins. Normally, PAE resins are formed by reacting a polyalkylene oliamine and an aliphatic dicarboxylic acid or a derivative of dicarboxylic acid. A polyaminoamide made of diethylenetriamine and adipic acid or its esters derived from dicarboxylic acids is more common. The resulting polyaminoamide is then reacted with the epichlorohydrin. Useful PAE resins are marketed under the name Kymene® (marketed by Ashland, Inc., Covington, KY).
    [0070] Likewise, resins resistant in the dry state can be added to the supply as desired, to increase the resistance in the dry state of the final product. Such resins resistant in the dry state include, but are not limited to, carboxymethylcellulose (CMC), any type of starch, starch derivatives, gums, polyacrylamide resins and others well known. The suppliers of these resins are the same ones that supply the moisture resistant resins mentioned above.
    [0071] As described above, the paper product of this publication can be formed by any variety of papermaking process known in the art. Preferably the paper web is formed by air drying and can be creped or not creped. For example, a papermaking process of the present disclosure may use adhesive creping, wet creping, double creping, embossing, wet pressing, air pressing, air drying, creping through air drying, not creping through air drying, as well as other stages in the formation of the paper web. Some examples of such techniques are disclosed in U.S. Patent Nos. 5,048,589, 5,399,412, 5,129,988 and 5,494,554, all of which are incorporated herein in a manner consistent with this publication. When forming multilayer paper products, the separate layers can be produced from the same process or from different processes as desired.
    [0072] Preferably, the base web is formed by an air drying process without creping, such as the processes described, for example, U.S. Patent No. 5,656,132 and 6,017,417, both of which are incorporated herein by reference in a manner consistent with this publication.
    [0073] In one embodiment, the weft is formed using a double-wire former with an inject papermaking box or deposits a supply of an aqueous fiber suspension for papermaking on a variety of forming screens such as the external forming screen and the internal forming screen, thus forming a wet paper web. The formation process of this publication can be any conventional training process known to the papermaking industry. Such forming processes include, but are not limited to, Fourdriniers machines, cover formers for example suction roll formers and gap formers for example as double wire formers and crescent formers.
    [0074] The wet paper web forms on the internal forming material as the internal forming screen rotates around a formed roll. The forming internal material serves to support and load the newly formed wet paper web downstream in the process as the wet paper web is partially dehydrated to a consistency of around 10% based on the dry weight of the fibers. Additional dehydration of the wet paper web can be accomplished by known paper-making techniques, such as vacuum suction boxes, while the forming inner material supports the wet paper web. The wet paper web can be further dehydrated to a consistency of at least about 20%, more specifically between about 20 to about 40% and more specifically about 20 to about 30%.
    [0075] The forming material can generally be produced from any suitable porous material, such as metal wires or polymeric filaments. For example, some suitable screens may include, but are not limited to, Albany 84M and 94M marketed by Albany International (Albany, NY) Asten 856, 866, 867, 892, 934, 939, 959, or 937; Asten Synweve Design 274, all marketed by Asten Forming Fabrics, Inc. (Appleton, WI); and Voith 2164 marketed by Voith Fabrics (Appleton, WI).
    [0076] The wet web is then transferred from the forming material to a transfer material when in the consistency of solids between about 10 to about 35% and particularly between about 20 to about 30%. As used here, a "transfer material" is a material that is positioned between the forming section and the drying section of the weft fabrication process.
    [0077] The transfer to the transfer material can be carried out with the assistance of positive and / or negative pressure. For example, in one application, a vacuum shoe can apply negative pressure, such that the forming material and the transfer material simultaneously converge and diverge at the inlet edge of the vacuum channel. Typically, the vacuum shoe provides pressure at levels between about 10 to about 25 ”of mercury. As indicated above, the vacuum transfer shoe (negative pressure) can be supplemented or replaced by using positive pressure on the opposite side of the web to launch the web onto the next material. In some applications, other vacuum shoes can also be used to assist in removing the fibrous web to the surface of the transfer material.
    [0078] Typically, the transfer material travels at a slower speed than the forming material to improve the MD and CD stretch of the web, which generally refers to the stretching of a web in its cross direction (CD) or in machine direction (MD) (expressed as a percentage of elongation in the sample failure). For example, the difference in relative speed between the two screens can be from about 1% to about 45%, in some embodiments from about 5% to about 30%, and in other embodiments, from about from 15% to about 28%. This is usually called a "quick transfer". During "rapid transfer", many of the web connections are considered to be broken, thus forcing the sheet to bend and bend in the depressions on the surface of the transfer material. Such molding on the surface contours of the transfer material can increase the MD and CD stretch of the weft. The rapid transfer from one material to another can follow the principles indicated in any of the following Patents, US Patent Nos. 5,667,636, 5,830,321, 4,440,597, 4,551,199, 4,849,054, all which are hereby incorporated by reference, in a manner that is consistent with this publication.
    [0079] The wet paper web is then transferred from the transfer material to an air flow drying material. Typically, the transfer screen travels at approximately the same speed as the air flow drying screen. However, a second quick transfer can be performed as the weft is transferred from the transfer screen to the air flow drying screen. This rapid transfer is referred to as occurring in the second position and is achieved by operating the air flow drying screen at a lower speed than the transfer screen.
    [0080] In addition to the quick transfer of the wet paper web from the transfer screen to the air flow drying screen, the wet paper web can be rearranged microscopically to fit with the surface of the drying screen, with the help of a vacuum transfer roller or a vacuum transfer shoe. If desired, the air flow drying screen can run at a lower speed than the transfer screen speed, in order to further improve the longitudinal stretch of the resulting absorbent paper product. The transfer can be carried out with the help of a vacuum, in order to guarantee the adjustment of the wet paper web to the topography of the air flow drying screen.
    [0081] When supported by the air flow drying material, the wet paper web is dried to a final consistency of about 94% or greater by an air flow dryer. The weft then passes through the winding clamp between the reel drum and the reel, and is wound on a paper reel for subsequent conversion, such as cutting the rolls, folding and packaging.
    [0082] The following examples are intended to illustrate certain embodiments of this publication, without limiting the scope of the attached claims. TEST METHODS Surface smoothness
    [0083] The smoothness of the surface was measured by generating a digital image of the contact surface of the tissue of a sample using a FRT MicroSpy® Profile (FRT of America, LLC, San Jose, CA) and then analyzing the image using Nanovea® Ultra software version 6.2 (Nanovea Inc., Irvine, CA). The samples (either base sheet or finished product) were cut into 145 x 145 mm squares. The samples were then attached to the x-y platform of the profilometer using adhesive tape, with the contact surface of the sample tissue facing upwards, making sure to place the samples on the platform and undistorted within the field of view of the profilometer.
    [0084] Once the sample was attached to the platform, the profilometer was used to generate a three-dimensional map of the height of the sample surface. An array of height values of 1602 x 1602 was obtained with a spacing of 30 μm resulting in a field of view of 48 mm MD x 48 mm CD, having a vertical resolution of 100 nm and a lateral resolution of 6 μm. The resulting height map was exported to the .sdf format (surface data file).
    [0085] Individual sample .sdf files were analyzed using the Nanovea® Ultra version 6.2 software by performing the following functions: (1) Using the "Thresholding" function of the Nanovea® Ultra software, the raw image (also called the field) it is subject to the threshold, setting the material ratio values at 0.5 to 99.5 percent in such a way that the threshold truncates the measured heights between the height of 0.5 percentile and the height of 99.5 percentile; (2) Using the "Fill in Non-Measure Points" function of the Nanovea® Ultra software, the unmeasured points are filled in a smooth way calculated from neighboring points; (3) Using the "Filtering> Wavyness + Roughness" function of the Nanovea® Ultra software, the field is spatially filtered with waviness through the application of a robust Gaussian filter with a wavelength 0.095 mm cut and selecting "manage end effects"; (4) Using the "Filtering - Wavyness + Roughness" function of the Nanovea® Ultra software, the field is spatially filtered with roughness through the application of a robust Gaussian filter with a wavelength cutting width of 0.5 mm and selecting "manage end effects"; (5) Using the "Parameter Tables" study function of the Nanovea® Ultra ISO 25178 Ultra software the values Sq (mean square root of the height, expressed in units of mm) and Sa (arithmetic mean of height, expressed mm units) are calculated and reported; (6) Using the "Abbott-Firestone curve" study function of the Nanovea® Ultra software, an Abbott-Firestone curve is generated, from which the "interactive mode" is selected and a histogram of the measured heights is generated from the histogram, a value of S90 (95th percentile height (C2), menus with the 5th percentile height (c1), expressed in units of mm) is calculated.
    [0086] Based on the above, three values, indicative of surface smoothness are reported - Sq, Sa and S90, and all have units of mm. The units were converted to microns for use in the present invention. Tensile strength
    [0087] The samples for tensile strength tests are prepared by cutting a line with a length of 3 ”(76.2 mm) x 5” (127 mm) in the machine direction (longitudinal) or in the machine's transversal direction ( transverse), using a JDC precision machine (Thwing-Albert Instrument Company, Philadelphia, PA, model No. JDC 3-10, serial No. 37333). The instrument used to measure tensile strength is an MTS Systems Sintech 11S, Serial No. 6233. The data acquisition software is MTS TestWorks® for Windows, version 4 (MTS Systems Corp., Research Triangle Park, NC ). The load cell is selected between a maximum of 50 or 100 Newtons, depending on the resistance of the sample being tested, so that most of the maximum load values are between 10% and 90% of the range of values of the load cell. charge. The length to be tested between the claws is 2 ± 0.04 ”(50.8 ± 1 mm). The claws are operated by means of a pneumatic mechanism and are covered with rubber. The minimum width of the adhesion face is 3 ”(76.2 mm) and the approximate height of the gripper is 0.5” (12.7 mm). The traction speed is 10 ± 0.4 ”/ min (254 ± 1 mm / min) and the sensitivity to break is determined at 65%. The sample is placed in the claws of the instrument, centered vertically and horizontally. The test is then started and ended when the specimen breaks. The maximum load is recorded as the specimen's “longitudinal stress” or “transverse stress”, depending on the sample being tested. At least six (6) representative specimens are tested for each product, taken “as is”, and the arithmetic mean of all tests for individual specimens represents the product's longitudinal or transverse tensile strength. Roll firmness
    [0088] Roll firmness was measured using the Kershaw test, as described in detail in U.S. Patent No. 6,077,590, incorporated herein by reference, insofar as it is consistent with what is presented in this publication. The apparatus is available from Kershaw Instrumentation, Inc. (Swedesboro, NJ) and is known as an RDT-2002 model for roll density testing. EXAMPLES Example 1
    [0089] The base sheets were made using an airflow drying papermaking process called "not airflow drying" ("NCSFA") as described in a general way in USAN Patent No. 5,607. 551, the content of which is incorporated herein in a manner consistent with this publication. Base sheets were produced with a totally dry weight of about 44 grams per square meter (g / m2). The base sheets were then converted and spiraled into a roll paper product.
    [0090] In all cases, the base sheets were produced from a supply comprising northern hardwood kraft and eucalyptus kraft using a layered inlet box, fed by three feed tanks, forming the wefts with three layers ( two outer layers and a middle layer). The two outer layers comprised eucalyptus (each layer comprising 30 percent by weight of the total weft weight) and the middle layer comprising hardwoods and eucalyptus. The amount of hardwood and eucalyptus kraft in the middle layer was maintained for all samples - the middle layer comprised 29% (by total weight of the weft hardwood) and 11% (by weight of the weft eucalyptus). Resistance was controlled by adding starch and / or by refining the supply, as defined in Table 6 below.
    [0091] The paper web was formed on a Voith Fabrics TissueForm V forming screen, vacuum-drained to approximately 25 percent consistency and then subjected to rapid transfer when transferred to the transfer screen. The transfer screen was the screen described as "Fred" in U.S. Patent No. 7,611,607 (marketed by Voith Fabrics, Appleton, WI).
    [0092] The weft was then transferred to an air flow drying fabric, comprising a printed silicone pattern arranged on the contact side of the sheet (hereinafter "Fozzie"). The silicone formed a wavy pattern on the contact side of the tissue sheet. The silicone pattern is illustrated in FIG. 8. The properties of the pattern are summarized in Table 5 below. Table 5

    [0093] The transfer to the air flow drying screen was made using vacuum levels of more than 10 ”of mercury in the transfer. The web was then dried to approximately 98% solids before winding.
    [0094] Table 6 shows the process conditions for each of the samples prepared according to the present example. Table 7 summarizes the physical properties of the base sheet webs. TABLE 6
    Table 7

    [0095] The base sheet wefts have been converted into several rolls of toilet paper. Specifically, the base sheets were calendered using one or more conventional polyurethane / steel calenders comprising a 4 or 40 P&J polyurethane roll on the air side of the sheet and a standard steel roll on the fabric side. The process conditions for each sample are provided in Table 8, below. All roll products comprised a single layer base sheet, so that the sample of roll product 1 comprised a single layer of sample 1 of the base sheet, roll 2 comprised a single layer of sample 2 of the base sheet, and so on. against.

    [0096] The final products were subjected to surface smoothness analysis, as described in the Test Method section above. The results of the surface smoothness analysis are summarized in Table 10 below. Table 10
    Example 2:
    [0097] The weft base sheet of the invention was prepared substantially as described in Example 1, in order to increase the base weight of the single layer paper product and also to produce a double layer paper product. Specifically, the base sheet was prepared as described above, using the process conditions presented in Table 10 below. The base sheet has been converted into two-layer roll products by calendering using one or two conventional polyurethane / steel calenders that comprise a 4 or 40 P&J roll on the air side of the sheet and a standard steel roll on the side of the fabric. The process conditions for each sample are provided in Table 11, below. The calendered base sheet was converted into paper products, in single or double layer roll. The two-layer roll paper products were formed by joining the paper webs together, and spraying laminate to join the webs together. The plots were not printed or subjected to other treatments. The roll products were formed in such a way that the roll 5 comprised two layers of the sample web 5, and so on.
