  • Publication number: 20240141593
    Abstract: Disclosed are multi-ply tissue products comprising a non-crosslinked binder that are durable and dispersible. The products generally have a Slosh time less than 2 minutes, such as less than about 60 seconds, such as less than about 45 seconds. Surprisingly, the foregoing Slosh times are achieved despite the tissue products having relatively high cross-machine direction (CD) wet tensile strength, such as greater than about 100 g/3?. Typically, increasing wet tensile strength, particularly wet CD tensile strength, negatively effects dispersability and increases Slosh time. Despite this trend, the present invention surprisingly provides a tissue product having a relatively high degree of wet strength and good dispersability.

  • Patent number: 11959227
    Abstract: The creped multi-ply tissue products are durable, smooth and have low levels of Slough. In certain instances, the creped multi-ply tissue products are produced using a creping composition comprising a non-crosslinked latex polymer. The creped multi-ply tissue products may have a geometric mean tensile (GMT) from about 700 to about 1,500 g/3?, a basis weight from about 45 to about 60 gsm and a Slough less than about 2.00 mg, such as from about 0.10 to about 2.00 mg. The inventive tissue products also have good durability, such as a Durability Index from about 10.0 to about 20.0, smooth surfaces, such as a TS750 value from about 15.0 to 40.0 and low stiffness, such as a Stiffness Index less than about 10.0.

  • Publication number: 20240110199
    Abstract: The present invention relates to methods and compositions for identifying, selecting and/or producing a pathogen resistant plant or germplasm (e.g., soybean plant or germplasm) using genes derived from Glycine tomentella. Candidate genes capable of conferring pathogen resistance (e.g., to Asian Soy Rust) are provided. A plant or germplasm that has been identified, selected and/or produced by any of the methods of the present invention is also provided. Pathogen resistant seeds, plants and germplasms are also provided.

  • Publication number: 20240021753
    Abstract: A light-emitting diode (LED) device can include a mesa with a sidewall encompassing a first semiconductor layer, a second semiconductor layer, and an active region between the first semiconductor layer and the second semiconductor layer. The first semiconductor layer and the second semiconductor layer are oppositely doped. The active region includes a quantum well. The LED device can further include at least one epitaxial layer grown over the sidewall of the mesa. The at least one epitaxial layer comprises a semiconductor material having a wider bandgap than a semiconductor material of the quantum well and is configured to induce compressive or tensile strain in the quantum well. The compressive or tensile strain causes a bandgap of a peripheral portion of the quantum well to differ from a bandgap of a central portion of the quantum well, thereby tuning an emission profile (e.g., wavelength and/or intensity) of the LED device.
