Abstract

Fibrous structures that exhibit a Dry Burst of greater than 360 g as measured according to the Dry Burst Test Method and optionally, a Total Dry Tensile of less than 2450 g/76.2 mm and/or a Machine Direction (MD) Dry Tensile of less than 1520 g/76.2 mm and/or a Geometric Mean (GM) Total Dry Tensile of less than 1180 g/76.2 mm as measured according to the Tensile Strength Test Method are provided.

Claims (20)

1. An embossed multi-ply fibrous structure that exhibits a MD Dry Tensile of less than 1520 g/76.2 mm as measured according to the Tensile Strength Test Method and a Dry Burst of greater than 360 g as measured according to the Dry Burst Test Method.

2. The multi-ply fibrous structure according to claim 1 wherein the multi-ply fibrous structure exhibits a Dry Burst of greater than about 370 g as measured according to the Dry Burst Test Method.

3. The multi-ply fibrous structure according to claim 1 wherein the multi-ply fibrous structure exhibits a Dry Burst of from about 370 g to about 600 g as measured according to the Dry Burst Test Method.

4. The multi-ply fibrous structure according to claim 1 wherein the multi-ply fibrous structure exhibits a MD Dry Tensile of less than about 1510 g/76.2 mm as measured according to the Tensile Strength Test Method.

5. The multi-ply fibrous structure according to claim 1 wherein the multi-ply fibrous structure exhibits a MD Dry Tensile of less than about 1500 g/76.2 mm as measured according to the Tensile Strength Test Method.

6. The multi-ply fibrous structure according to claim 1 wherein the multi-ply fibrous structure comprises cellulosic pulp fibers.

7. The multi-ply fibrous structure according to claim 1 wherein the multi-ply fibrous structure comprises a throughdried fibrous structure.

8. The multi-ply fibrous structure according to claim 1 wherein the multi-ply fibrous structure comprises an uncreped fibrous structure.

9. The multi-ply fibrous structure according to claim 1 wherein the multi-ply fibrous structure is a sanitary tissue product.

10. The multi-ply fibrous structure according to claim 9 wherein the sanitary tissue product is in roll form.

11. An embossed multi-ply fibrous structure that exhibits a GM Total Dry Tensile of less than 1180 g/76.2 mm as measured according to the Tensile Strength Test Method and a Dry Burst of greater than 360 g as measured according to the Dry Burst Test Method.

12. The multi-ply fibrous structure according to claim 11 wherein the multi-ply fibrous structure exhibits a Dry Burst of greater than about 370 g as measured according to the Dry Burst Test Method.

13. The multi-ply fibrous structure according to claim 11 wherein the multi-ply fibrous structure exhibits a Dry Burst of from about 370 g to about 600 g as measured according to the Dry Burst Test Method.

14. The multi-ply fibrous structure according to claim 11 wherein the multi-ply fibrous structure exhibits a GM Total Dry Tensile of less than about 1150 g/76.2 mm as measured according to the Tensile Strength Test Method.

15. The multi-ply fibrous structure according to claim 11 wherein the multi-ply fibrous structure exhibits a MD Dry Tensile of less than about 1100 g/76.2 mm as measured according to the Tensile Strength Test Method.

16. The multi-ply fibrous structure according to claim 11 wherein the multi-ply fibrous structure comprises cellulosic pulp fibers.

17. The multi-ply fibrous structure according to claim 11 wherein the multi-ply fibrous structure comprises a throughdried fibrous structure.

18. The multi-ply fibrous structure according to claim 11 wherein the multi-ply fibrous structure comprises an uncreped fibrous structure.

19. The multi-ply fibrous structure according to claim 11 wherein the multi-ply fibrous structure is a sanitary tissue product.

20. The multi-ply fibrous structure according to claim 19 wherein the sanitary tissue product is in roll form.
