Abstract: A process for manufacturing a water soluble product including the steps of: providing a water soluble fibrous parent continuous ply web, the parent continuous ply web extending in the cross direction between an operator edge and drive edge; cutting the parent continuous ply web in the machine direction to provide a first continuous ply web that includes the drive edge and a second continuous ply web that includes the operator edge; superposing the first continuous ply web and the second continuous ply web to form a web stack so that the operator edge and the drive edge are on opposite sides of a centerline of the web stack in the machine direction; and cutting and joining portions of the web stack to form the water soluble product.

Abstract: Described are effervescent dissolvable solid structures comprising effervescent agglomerated particles which enhance the consumer experience and can improve dissolution of the structure. Also described are processes for the Dissolvable Solid Structure comprising effervescent agglomerated particles. Also described are methods for making the effervescent agglomerated particle.

Abstract: Described are effervescent dissolvable solid structures having fibers formed from a composition comprising surfactant and water soluble polymeric structurant, having a total dissolvable solid structure density of from about 0.100 g/cm3 to about 0.380 g/cm3, having a surfactant dose of from about 0.5 to about 2.0 g, and a surfactant density of from about 0.1 g/cm3 to about 0.3 g/cm3. Also described are processes for manufacturing the Dissolvable Solid Structure.

Abstract: A process, for example a continuous process, for making an article of manufacture containing a fibrous structure and more particularly a process for making an article of manufacture containing a fibrous structure, such as a soluble fibrous structure, containing soluble filaments is provided.

Abstract: A process for manufacturing a water soluble product including the steps of: providing a water soluble fibrous first ply; providing a water soluble fibrous second ply formed on a surface other than the first ply, wherein the second ply is separate from the first ply; superposing the first ply and the second ply; and joining a first portion of the first ply to a second portion of the second ply to form the water soluble product.

Abstract: A process, for example a continuous process, for making an article of manufacture containing a fibrous structure, for example a composite structure, and more particularly to a process for making an article of manufacture containing a fibrous structure, such as a soluble fibrous structure, containing soluble filaments is provided.

Abstract: Active agent-containing articles, for example fibrous structures, that exhibit consumer acceptable article in-use properties, such as flexibility, article dimensions, and/or dissolvability, and product-shipping assemblies for containing the same are provided.

Abstract: A shaving aid for razor cartridges comprising water soluble filaments having nano-sized diameters and exhibiting lubricating properties and with improved visual and tactile aesthetics, wherein said nano-filament has a core and a sheath.

Abstract: Apertured fibrous structures and more particularly apertured fibrous structures containing one or more fibrous elements, for example filaments, containing one or more fibrous element-forming materials and one or more active agents that are releasable from the fibrous element when exposed to conditions of intended use, and methods for making same.

Abstract: A nonwoven fibrous structure comprising compressed sites and molded elements. The combination of compressed sites and molded elements may provide for a fibrous structure comprising structural integrity in use, dispersability when flushed, and assistance to the user in cleansing.

Abstract: A plurality of textured wipes is stored in a dispenser having an orifice in a configuration such that when a wipe is pulled through the orifice, a dispensing force is applied to the wipe. The dispensing force is chosen such that the wipes increase in thickness from about 15% to about 200% during dispensing without losing their structural integrity such as via ripping, tearing, delaminating and the like. During dispensing, a visual signal of the thickening of a wipe is provided.

Abstract: A multi-layered nonwoven having a printed layer comprises a pair of outer layers, with each of the outer layers comprising a carded web. An inner layer is disposed between the outer layers and includes printed indicia, which may be in the form of text, graphics, colors, or other suitable indicia. The inner layer is bonded to each of the outer layers by hydroentanglement. A method of making such a nonwoven may include the steps of providing a pair of outer layers comprising carded webs, providing a pulp inner layer having printed indicia, positioning the inner layer between the outer layers, passing the outer layers and the inner layer together through a hydroentangling system to secure the inner layer to each of the outer layers to form a web, and drying the web.

Abstract: A process for autogeneously bonding two cellulosic laminae to form a multi-lamina substrate by high pressure lamination. The attachment occurs at selective bond sites wetted with a functional fluid such as water prior to bonding. The process is applicable to multi-lamina substrates formed from laminae treated with chemical softening agents.

Abstract: An embossed multiple ply paper product having a nested latticework embossment pattern providing a cloth-like, quilted appearance and a process for embossing and bonding such multiple ply paper product. The multiple ply paper product comprises a latticework of cells composed of n rows of embossment elements nested within an interfacing latticework of cells composed of n+1 rows of embossment elements.
