Abstract: A method of utilizing a single engraved embossing roll to emboss different expanses of material with different patterns. The single engraved embossing roll has at least two projections projecting therefrom. A first of the projections projects to a greater height from the roll than a second of the projections. In another aspect, the invention encompasses an apparatus for embossing different expanses of material with different patterns. The apparatus includes an engraved surface having at least two projections projecting therefrom. A first of the projections projects to a greater height than a second of the projections. The apparatus also includes a backing surface configured to receive the projections of the engraved surface. The backing surface and engraved surface are together configured to receive an expanse of material between them.

Abstract: Conductive, flowable, emollient compositions and electrostatic methods for their application e.g., to tissue, are disclosed. Compositions of the invention include emollient(s) and conductivity modifiers. Emollient-compatible phosphates and succinates are particularly preferred families of conductivity modifiers. In methods of the invention conductive emollient composition of the invention are preferably applied to tissue substrates, particularly facial tissue substrates, and particularly in a commercial tissue-making process. Electrostatic spray processes are utilized to obtain surprisingly uniform application of conductive emollient to tissue with minimal overspray or spray path overlap.
