Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

Tissue papers and methods of making are disclosed herein. In one aspect, a tissue paper is substantially free of a chemical debonder and has a geometric mean tensile (GMT) in a range between about 500 and about 5,000 g/3 inches (g/3 in.) and a caliper in a range between about 50 and about 350 mils/8 sheets.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A gas-impregnated tissue paper substantially free of a chemical debonder and having a percent increase in slope of velocity/pressure ((feet 3 /min/feet 2 )/inches water column) as a function of 1/P 0.5 of at least 15% compared to a like non-gas-impregnated tissue paper; wherein P is pressure from about 8 inches water column to about 20 inches water column. 2. The gas-impregnated tissue paper of claim 1 , wherein the increase in slope of velocity/pressure is at least 20% compared to a like non-gas-impregnated tissue paper. 3. The gas-impregnated tissue paper of claim 1 , wherein the increase in slope of velocity/pressure is at least 22% compared to a like non-gas-impregnated tissue paper.
