TISSUE PRODUCTS WITH CONTROLLED LINT PROPERTIES

摘要

Sheet-like products, such as tissue products, are disclosed containing an additive composition. The additive composition, for instance, comprises an aqueous dispersion containing an alpha-olefin polymer, an ethylene-carboxyli c acid copolymer, or mixtures thereof. The alpha-olefin polymer may comprise an interpolymer of ethylene and octene, while the ethylene-carboxylic acid copolymer may comprise ethylene-acrylic acid copolymer. The additive composi tion may also contain a dispersing agent, such as a fatty acid. The additive composition may be incorporated into the tissue web by being combined with the fibers that are used to form the web. Alternatively, the additive compos ition may be topically applied to the web after the web has been formed. The additive composition can improve various properties of the sheet-like produ ct. For instance, in one embodiment, the additive composition can reduce lin t and increase softness.
