Abstract: A method of communicating qualities to a consumer of a paper towel product where the method involves: providing a paper towel product having one or more qualities, identifying one or more communicative elements having one or more of the same qualities of the paper towel product, selecting a first communicative element by applying one or more selective criteria to the one or more communicative elements, providing a visual representation of the paper towel product and a visual representation of the first communicative element, and using the visual representations of the paper towel product and first communicative element to provide a quality communicative indicium.

Abstract: A consumer package having a viewing angle dependent image. The consumer package includes an image that provides a perception of at least two attributes selected from among motion, depth of field, image flip, and image zoom. The perception provided by the image changes according to the viewing angle the image is observed at. The consumer package may comprise a portion of a kit that also includes a consumer product at least partially enclosed in the consumer package. The kit may further include a package holder that may cooperate with the package to enhance the perception provided by the viewing angle dependent package.

Abstract: The present invention relates to an apparatus for producing a deep-nested embossed paper product comprising two embossing cylinders, each cylinder having a plurality of protrusions on its surface. The protrusions on each cylinder are disposed in a non-random pattern where the respective non-random patterns are coordinated to each other. The two embossing cylinders are aligned such that the respective coordinated non-random pattern of protrusions nest together such that the protrusions engage each other to a depth of greater than about 1.016 mm. The protrusions each comprise a top plane and sidewalls, with the top plane and sidewalls meeting at a protrusion corner. The protrusion corners of the protrusions of the embossing cylinders of the apparatus of the present invention have a radius of curvature ranging from about 0.076 mm to about 1.778 mm.

Abstract: A creping blade including a body having a leading side, a trailing side, and working end including a bevel surface. The bevel surface is defined by a leading edge and a trailing edge, wherein the trailing edge of the creping blade has a trailing edge radius of greater than about 0.001 inches (about 0.0254 mm).

Abstract: Disclosed is a composition suitable for atomizing without excessive aerosolization in the form of an oil-in-water emulsion comprising: a) a continuous aqueous phase, and b) a discontinuous oil phase wherein the rheology of the aqueous phase is modified by the addition of a water-in-oil emulsion comprising: i) a high molecular weight polymer in a discontinuous aqueous phase, and ii) a continuous organic solvent phase. Preferred embodiments of the present invention relate to compositions for softening an absorbent paper tissue comprising a) a quaternary ammonium softening active ingredient; b) an electrolyte; c) a high molecular weight polymer emulsion comprising: i) from about 20% to about 40% by weight of the premix of a high molecular weight polymer; ii) from about 40% to about 60% of water; and iii) from about 20% to about 40% of an organic solvent; and d) a vehicle in which said softening active ingredient is dispersed.

Abstract: A kit providing at least one roll of a convolutely wound web material and at least one roll-support adapter and a method of marketing the kit. The roll-support adapter interfaces with an existing roll-holding fixture to increase the single roll capacity of the roll holder and to hold and dispense the roll of convolutely wound web material. The kit may provide rolls having a diameter larger than the capacity of the existing roll-holding fixture.

Abstract: The present invention relates to processes for producing a deep-nested embossed paper products. The invention relates to a process for producing a deep-nested embossed paper products comprising one or more plies of paper where the resulting embossed ply or plies of paper comprise a plurality of embossments having an average embossment height of at least about 650 ?m and have a high finished product wet burst strength relative to the unembossed wet strength.

Abstract: A paper tissue such as a facial tissue or a disposable handkerchief and a method of making the tissue. The method includes passing the tissue paper web through an embossing nip formed between a first and a second embossing roll, wherein at least one of the embossing rolls comprises at least 30 embossing elements per square centimeter and applying a transferable lotion to at least portions of the tissue paper web.

Abstract: A composition for softening an absorbent tissue having from about 10% to about 60% by weight of a quaternary ammonium softening active ingredient; free amine compounds at a level such that the softening composition has a tertiary to quaternary amine ratio of greater than about 0.06 and less than about 0.2; an aqueous vehicle in which said softening active ingredient is dispersed; and from about 0.01% to about 5% by weight of a high polymer; wherein the high polymer has a weight-average molecular weight of from about 2,000,000 to about 25,000,000.

Abstract: The present invention relates to embossed tissue-towel paper products comprising one or more plies of tissue paper wherein at least one of the plies of tissue paper comprises a plurality of embossments wherein the at least one embossed plies have a total embossed area less than or equal to about 15% and an average embossment height of at least about 650 ?m and E factor of between about 0.0150 to about 1.0000 inches4 per number of embossments.

Abstract: Disclosed is a composition for softening an absorbent tissue. The composition includes an effective amount of a softening active ingredient; a vehicle in which the softening active ingredient is dispersed; an electrolyte dissolved in the vehicle; and a bilayer disrupter. The electrolyte and the bilayer disrupter cooperate to cause the viscosity of the composition to be less than the viscosity of a dispersion of the softening active ingredient in the vehicle alone. Preferably, the softening active ingredient is a quaternary ammonium compound with the formula: (R1)4?m—N+—[(CH2)n—Y—R3]mX? the vehicle is water, the electrolyte is calcium chloride, and the bilayer disrupter is a nonionic surfactant.

Abstract: A scrub pad comprising a scrubbing layer having a periphery along the edges of the layer, a wiping layer having a periphery along the edges of the layer, and an absorbent core layer having a periphery along the edges of the layer. The scrub pad has at least one absorbent material selected from: short-fiber, air-laid nonwoven material, nonwoven plastic batting, cellulosic fibrous web materials, wax coated paper, corrugated paper, fluff pulp, cotton balls, cotton batting, and mixtures thereof The absorbent core layer is located intermediate to the scrubbing layer and the wiping layer and wherein the scrubbing layer, the absorbent core layer and the wiping layer are joined at the periphery of each layer to form a bonded edge.
