Abstract:
A method for producing an uncreped tissue web comprising the steps of:a) depositing an aqueous suspension of papermaking fibers onto a forming fabric to form an embryonic web;b) noncompressively dewatering said embryonic web to a consistency of about 30 percent or greater;c) texturing said web against a three-dimensional substrate to form a three-dimensional high bulk structure;d) transferring said three-dimensional high bulk structure to a surface of a cylindrical dryer;e) applying an interfacial control mixture which includes adhesive compounds and release agents to said surface of said cylindrical dryer, said interfacial control mixture adapted to adhere said three-dimensional high bulk structure to said surface of said cylindrical dryer without fluttering and permitting detachment of said three-dimensional high bulk structure without significant damage;f) drying said three-dimensional high bulk structure on said cylindrical dryer; andg) detaching said three-dimensional high bulk structure from said surface of said cylindrical dryer without creping.
