Definitions

  • the present disclosure relates to a single-ply tissue paper material, to a single-ply tissue paper product, and to a multi-ply tissue paper product, comprising at least one non-wood tissue ply comprising non-wood cellulose pulp fibres.
  • Tissue paper materials find extensive use in modern society. Toilet paper, and paper towels such as hand towels or household (kitchen) towels, facial tissues, tissue handkerchiefs, napkins, and industrial wipes are staple items of commerce. These products are typically made from papermaking pulp comprising wood fibres, such as hardwood and softwood fibres.
  • a “tissue paper product” relates to an absorbent paper product based on cellulose wadding which is also called tissue paper material or tissue paper base-sheet in this field of technology.
  • Tissue paper material is defined as a soft absorbent paper material having a low basis weight, of for example 8 to 45 g/m 2 , preferably 10 to 35 g/m 2 per ply.
  • the total basis weight of multi-ply tissue paper products may preferably be up to a maximum of 110 g/m 2 , more preferably to a maximum of 80 g/m 2 .
  • Its density is typically below 0.6 g/cm 3 , preferably below 0.30 g/cm 3 and more preferably in the range of 0.02 g/cm 3 and 0.20 g/cm 3 .
  • the production of tissue paper material is distinguished from conventional paper production, e.g.
  • the fibres contained in the tissue paper are mainly cellulosic fibres, such as pulp fibres from chemical pulp (e.g. Kraft or sulphite), or mechanical pulp (e.g. ground wood, thermo mechanical pulp, chemo-mechanical pulp and/or chemo- thermo-mechanical pulp /CTMP). Pulps derived from both deciduous (hardwood) and coniferous (softwood) can be used. Fibres may also come from non-wood plants e.g. cereal, bamboo, jute, or sisal. The fibres or a portion of the fibres may be recycled fibres, which may belong to any or all of the above categories. The fibres can be treated with additives, e.g.
  • fillers such as, but not limited to, quaternary ammonium compounds and binders, conventional dry- strength agents, temporary wet strength agents or wet-strength agents, in order to facilitate the original paper making or to adjust the properties thereof.
  • Tissue paper products in particular for use as hygiene- or wiping products primarily include all kinds of tissue paper materials including dry-creped tissue paper material, wet- creped tissue paper material, NTT (flat), TAD-paper material (Through Air Drying), tissue paper material based on structured or textured technologies such as ATMOS, NTT (textured), UCTAD, eTAD, QRT, PrimeLineTEX etc. and cellulose or pulp-wadding, or combinations, laminates or mixtures thereof.
  • Typical properties of these hygiene- and wiping products include the ability to absorb tensile stress energy, their drapability, good textile-like flexibility, properties which are frequently referred to as bulk softness, a high surface softness and a high specific volume with a perceptible thickness.
  • a liquid absorbency as high as possible and, depending on the application, a suitable wet and dry strength as well as an appealable visual appearance of the outer product's surfaces are desired.
  • These properties allow these hygiene and wiping products to be used, for example, as cleaning wipes such as windscreen cleaning wipes, industrial wipes, kitchen paper or the like; as sanitary products such as for example bathroom tissue, handkerchiefs, household towels, towels and the like; as cosmetic wipes such as for example facials and as serviettes or napkins, just to mention some of the products that can be used.
  • the hygiene- and wiping products can be dry, moist, wet, printed or pre-treated in any manner.
  • the hygiene- and wiping products may be folded, interleaved or individually placed, stacked or rolled, connected or not, in any suitable manner.
  • the products described above can be used for personal and household use as well as commercial and industrial use. They are adapted to absorb fluids, remove dust, and for other cleaning purposes.
  • tissue paper material is to be made out of pulp
  • the process essentially comprises a forming step that includes a headbox- and a forming wire section, and a drying section, e.g. including through air drying or conventional drying on a Yankee cylinder.
  • the production process can also include a crepe process for tissue paper and, finally, typically a monitoring and winding area.
  • Tissue paper material can be formed by placing the fibres, in an oriented or random manner, on one or between two endless continuously rotating wires or felts of a paper making machine while simultaneously removing water.
  • crepe process which influences the properties of the finished tissue paper product in conventional processes.
  • the conventional dry crepe process involves creping on a usually 3.0 to 6.5 m diameter drying cylinder, the so-called Yankee cylinder, by means of a crepe doctor blade with the aforementioned final dry-solids content of the raw tissue paper. Wet creping can be used as well, if lower demands are made of the tissue quality.
  • the creped, finally dry raw tissue paper material, the so-called base tissue is then available for further processing into the tissue paper product.
  • the use of a modified technique is possible in which an improvement in specific volume is achieved by a special kind of drying which leads to an improvement in the e.g. caliper, bulk, softness, etc. of the tissue paper material.
  • This process which exists in a variety of subtypes, is herein generally termed the structured tissue technique.
  • structured tissue techniques are TAD ATMOS®, NTT (textured), UCTAD, eTAD, QRT, PrimeLineTex etc.
  • the processing step from the tissue paper material to the finished tissue paper product occurs in processing machines (converting machines) which include operations such as unwinding the tissue paper material (base tissue), calendering of the tissue, laminating, printing or embossing.
  • processing machines converting machines which include operations such as unwinding the tissue paper material (base tissue), calendering of the tissue, laminating, printing or embossing.
  • plies may be combined together by a combining operation of a chemical nature (e.g. by adhesive bonding), or of a mechanical nature (e.g. by knurling or so-called edge embossing), or a combination of both. Examples of such process steps for combining plies together will be described in more detail in the below.
  • processing to finished tissue paper product may involve e.g. longitudinal cut, folding, cross cut etc.
  • individual tissue paper products may be positioned and brought together to form stacks, which may be individually packaged.
  • processing steps may also include application of substances like scents, lotions, softeners or other chemical additives.
  • a film of adhesive is deposited over some or all of the surface of at least one of the plies, then the adhesive- treated surface is placed in contact with the surface of at least one other ply.
  • the plies When several plies are combined together using mechanical bonding, the plies may be combined by knurling, by compression, by edge-embossing, union embossing and/or ultrasonic.
  • Mechanical and adhesive bonding may also be combined to combine several plies together to form a multi-ply product.
  • Embossing is to change the shape of a sheet from flat to shaped, so that there are areas that are raised and/or recessed from the rest of the surface. It therefore constitutes a deformation of the previously relatively flat sheet, and results in a ply having a particular relief.
  • the thickness of the ply or of the multiple plies is in most cases increased after embossing compared with its initial thickness.
  • An embossing process is carried out between an embossing roll and an anvil roll.
  • the embossing roll can have protrusions or depressions on its circumferential surface leading to embossed protrusions/depressions in the paper web.
  • Anvil rolls may be softer than the corresponding embossing roll and may consist of rubber, such as natural rubber, or plastic materials, paper or steel. If the anvil roll is made of a softer material like rubber, a contact area/nip can be formed between the embossing roll (e.g. steel roll) and the anvil roll by the deformation of the softer roll.
  • a pattern can be applied to a tissue paper fulfilling a decorative and/or functional purpose.
  • a functional purpose may be to improve the properties of the hygiene paper product, that is, the embossment may improve the product thickness, absorbency, bulk, softness etc.
  • a functional purpose may also be to provide a joint to another ply in a multi-ply product.
  • Tissue paper products display a number of physical properties which are of importance for their use for example as toilet paper, hand towels, kitchen towels, facial tissues, handkerchiefs, napkins, wipe or the like. Examples of such properties are their strength, softness, and absorbency (primarily for aqueous systems). These physical properties are generally tuned for addressing common consumer demand in view of the intended use of the tissue paper product.
  • tissue paper products need to retain their strength at least for a time period of use e.g. for wiping liquids or moisture.
  • tissue paper products have an absorbency so as to be suitable for their purpose such as for wiping liquids or moisture, cleaning etc.
  • tissue paper products may be intended to come in intimate contact with the body and skin. Accordingly, it is desired that tissue paper products shall exhibit sufficient softness in order to ensure consumer’s comfort.
  • tissue paper products are generally conflicting properties.
  • One example is strength and softness. Often, as strength in a tissue paper product rises, the softness declines.
  • tissue paper product providing a good balance between required properties.
  • tissue paper product achieving a satisfactory balance between softness and strength or to provide a tissue paper product achieving a satisfactory absorption, strength and/or softness.

  • Hardwood As hardwood we understand herein fibrous pulp derived from the woody substance of deciduous trees (angiosperms). For example, hardwood includes eucalyptus. Typically, hardwood fibres are relatively short fibres. For example, the hardwood fibres may have an average fibre length less than 1700 pm. The hardwood fibres may for example have a diameter of 15 to 40 pm and a wall thickness of 3 to 5 pm.

  • paper tissue webs can be produced in several ways.
  • Conventional paper machines have been used for many years for that purpose, to produce such conventional webs at a relatively low cost.
  • An example of a conventional paper tissue web process is the dry crepe process which involves creping on a drying cylinder, the so-called yankee cylinder, by means of a crepe doctor. Wet creping can be used as well, if there are lower demands on the tissue quality.
  • the creped, finally dry raw tissue paper, the so-called base tissue is then available for further processing into the paper product for a tissue paper product.
  • TAD Through Air Drying
  • ATMOS Advanced Tissue Molding System
  • a common feature for these latter methods is that they result in a more structured web with a lower density than a web produced on a conventional paper machine.
  • CWP technology Conventional Wet Pressed technology refers to conventional paper web processes, in which the tissue is formed on a forming fabric and dewatered by pressing with one or more pressure roll nips. The process may involve transfer of the sheet to a Yankee dryer and removing the sheet from the Yankee surface by a doctor blade in a creping process.
  • CWP technology as used herein includes for example dry crepe technology, wet crepe technology, and flat NTT (New Tissue Technology).
  • structured tissue technology relates to the newer technologies for producing a structured tissue web. Such methods will not employ the high pressure used to dewater the web in the CWP process.

  • TAD technology has been developed since the 1960’s and is well known to a person skilled in the art. It generally involves developing functional properties of the tissue by moulding the fibre mat on a structured fabric. This results in the fibre mat forming a structured tissue which may acquire high bulk and absorption due to air passing through the web while drying the web when still on the structured fabric.
  • ATMOS technology is a production method developed by Voith and which is also well known to a person skilled in the art.
  • Textured NTT was designed to overcome some of the limitations of ATMOS by pressing at even higher pressures before transferring to the Yankee.
  • a shoe press is used in the first pressing section between the former felt and a belt with cells designed to provide absorptive capacity and increase strength.
  • the NTT technology may reduce the Yankee Hood drying load as compared to ATMOS.
