<p>A crosslinkable cellulosic fibrous product that includes cellulosic fibers and a crosslinking agent is disclosed. The crosslinkable cellulosic fibrous product can be formed as a web or sheet that has structural integrity and sheet strength sufficient to permit the fibrous web to be rolled, transported, and used in rolled form in subsequent processes. The crosslinkable fibrous product can be converted into a crosslinked fibrous product by subjecting the product to conditions sufficient to effect intrafiber crosslinking. Alternatively, the web can be fiberized and the resulting individual crosslinkable fibers combined with other fibers and/or other materials to provide a fibrous web containing crosslinkable cellulosic fibers. Subjecting such a web to crosslinking conditions provides a fibrous web that includes, in addition to other fibers or materials, crosslinked cellulosic fibers.</p> |
