Abstract

Sanitary tissue products employing fibrous structures that exhibit novel combination of slip stick coefficient of friction and compressibility properties and methods for making same.

Claims (20)

1. A creped, multi-ply sanitary tissue product comprising a plurality of pulp fibers, wherein the creped, multi-ply sanitary tissue product exhibits a Slip Stick Coefficient of Friction of less than 740 (COF*10000) as measured according to the Slip Stick Coefficient of Friction Test Method and a Compressibility of greater than 36 mils/(log(g/in 2 )) as measured according to the Stack Compressibility and Resilient Bulk Test Method.

2. The creped, multi-ply sanitary tissue product according to claim 1 wherein the pulp fibers comprise wood pulp fibers.

3. The creped, multi-ply sanitary tissue product according to claim 1 wherein the pulp fibers comprise non-wood pulp fibers.

4. The creped, multi-ply sanitary tissue product according to claim 1 wherein the creped, multi-ply sanitary tissue product comprises an embossed fibrous structure ply.

5. The creped, multi-ply sanitary tissue product according to claim 1 wherein the creped, multi-ply sanitary tissue product comprises a through-air-dried fibrous structure ply.

6. The creped, multi-ply sanitary tissue product according to claim 5 wherein the creped, multi-ply sanitary tissue product comprises a creped through-air-dried fibrous structure ply.

7. The creped, multi-ply sanitary tissue product according to claim 1 wherein the creped, multi-ply sanitary tissue product comprises an uncreped fibrous structure ply.

8. The creped, multi-ply sanitary tissue product according to claim 7 wherein the uncreped fibrous structure ply is an uncreped through-air-dried fibrous structure ply.

9. The creped, multi-ply sanitary tissue product according to claim 1 wherein the creped, multi-ply sanitary tissue product comprises a fabric creped fibrous structure ply.

10. The creped, multi-ply sanitary tissue product according to claim 1 wherein the creped, multi-ply sanitary tissue product comprises a belt creped fibrous structure ply.

11. The creped, multi-ply sanitary tissue product according to claim 1 wherein the creped, multi-ply sanitary tissue product comprises a conventional wet-pressed fibrous structure ply.

12. The creped, multi-ply sanitary tissue product according to claim 11 wherein the conventional wet-pressed fibrous structure ply is a creped conventional wet-pressed fibrous structure ply.

13. A creped, multi-ply sanitary tissue product comprising at least one 3D patterned creped through-air-dried fibrous structure ply comprising a plurality of pulp fibers, wherein the creped, multi-ply sanitary tissue product exhibits a Slip Stick Coefficient of Friction of less than 740 (COF*10000) as measured according to the Slip Stick Coefficient of Friction Test Method and a Compressibility of greater than 19 mils/(log(g/in 2 )) as measured according to the Stack Compressibility and Resilient Bulk Test Method.

14. The creped, multi-ply sanitary tissue product according to claim 13 wherein the pulp fibers comprise wood pulp fibers.

15. The creped, multi-ply sanitary tissue product according to claim 13 wherein the pulp fibers comprise non-wood pulp fibers.

16. The creped, multi-ply sanitary tissue product according to claim 13 wherein the 3D patterned creped fibrous structure ply is an embossed 3D patterned creped fibrous structure ply.

17. The creped, multi-ply sanitary tissue product according to claim 13 wherein the 3D patterned creped through-air-dried fibrous structure ply is a non-lotioned 3D patterned creped through-air-dried fibrous structure ply.

18. The creped, multi-ply sanitary tissue product according to claim 13 wherein the creped, multi-ply sanitary tissue product further comprises an uncreped fibrous structure ply.

19. The creped, multi-ply sanitary tissue product according to claim 18 wherein the uncreped fibrous structure ply is an uncreped through-air-dried fibrous structure ply.

20. The creped, multi-ply sanitary tissue product according to claim 13 wherein the creped, multi-ply sanitary tissue product comprises a conventional wet-pressed fibrous structure ply.
