Embossed wet-laid fibrous structures

摘要

The use of a repeating embossing pattern on a wet-laid cellulosic fibrous structure (10) is described to improve the cleaning performance of said cellulosic fibrous structure (10), said embossing pattern being non-continuous in at least one diagonal direction and comprising non-equidistant discrete embossing sites (14), the cleaning performance index (CPIE) being not less than 105, wherein said index (CPIE) is represented in terms of the following equation: $The\; cleaning\; performance\; index\; (CPIE)\; is\; preferably\; 110.\; In\; a\; preferred\; embodiment\; of\; the\; present\; invention,\; the\; embossing\; pattern\; is\; of\; an\; angular\; nature.\; In\; a\; more\; preferred\; embodiment\; of\; the\; present\; invention,\; the\; embossing\; pattern\; is\; in\; the\; form\; of\; a\; rhombus.\mathop{\mathrm{image}}$
