Abstract

Fibrous structures that exhibit a Geometric Mean Elongation of greater than 14.85% as measured according to the Elongation Test Method are provided.

Claims (20)

1. An embossed, multi-ply toilet tissue comprising a temporary wet strength agent such that the embossed, multi-ply toilet tissue exhibits a Geometric Mean Elongation of greater than 14.95% as measured according to the Elongation Test Method and an initial total wet tensile of less than 200 g/in.

2. The embossed, multi-ply toilet tissue according to claim 1 wherein the embossed, multi-ply toilet tissue exhibits a Geometric Mean Elongation of greater than 15.8% as measured according to the Elongation Test Method.

3. The embossed, multi-ply toilet tissue according to claim 2 wherein the embossed, multi-ply toilet tissue exhibits a Geometric Mean Elongation of greater than 16% as measured according to the Elongation Test Method.

4. The embossed, multi-ply toilet tissue according to claim 1 wherein the embossed, multi-ply toilet tissue further exhibits a Basis Weight of greater than 15 to about 120 gsm as measured according to the Basis Weight Test Method.

5. The embossed, multi-ply toilet tissue according to claim 1 wherein the embossed, multi-ply toilet tissue further exhibits a Dry Burst of greater than 100 g as measured according to the Dry Burst Test Method.

6. The embossed, multi-ply toilet tissue according to claim 5 wherein the embossed, multi-ply toilet tissue exhibits a Dry Burst of greater than 100 g to about 1000 g as measured according to the Dry Burst Test Method.

7. The embossed, multi-ply toilet tissue according to claim 1 wherein the embossed, multi-ply toilet tissue further exhibits a Dry Burst of less than 660 g as measured according to the Dry Burst Test Method.

8. The embossed, multi-ply toilet tissue according to claim 7 wherein the embossed, multi-ply toilet tissue exhibits a Dry Burst of from about 100 g to less than 660 g as measured according to the Dry Burst Test Method.

9. The embossed, multi-ply toilet tissue according to claim 1 wherein the embossed, multi-ply toilet tissue further exhibits a Geometric Mean Modulus of greater than 758 at 15 g/cm as measured according to the Modulus Test Method.

10. The embossed, multi-ply toilet tissue according to claim 1 wherein the embossed, multi-ply toilet tissue comprises cellulosic pulp fibers.

11. The embossed, multi-ply toilet tissue according to claim 1 wherein the embossed, multi-ply toilet tissue comprises a throughdried fibrous structure ply.

12. The embossed, multi-ply toilet tissue according to claim 1 wherein the embossed, multi-ply toilet tissue comprises a creped fibrous structure ply.

13. The embossed, multi-ply toilet tissue according to claim 1 wherein the embossed, multi-ply toilet tissue comprises an uncreped fibrous structure ply.

14. The embossed, multi-ply toilet tissue according to claim 1 wherein the embossed, multi-ply toilet tissue comprises a wet-laid fibrous structure ply.

15. The embossed, multi-ply toilet tissue according to claim 1 wherein the embossed, multi-ply toilet tissue comprises two or more fibrous structure plies.

16. The embossed, multi-ply toilet tissue according to claim 15 wherein the embossed, multi-ply toilet tissue comprises three fibrous structure plies.

17. A roll of embossed, multi-ply toilet tissue comprising an embossed, multi-ply toilet tissue according to claim 1 .

18. A package comprising a plurality of rolls of embossed, multi-ply toilet tissue according to claim 17 .

19. The embossed, multi-ply toilet tissue according to claim 1 wherein the embossed, multi-ply toilet tissue comprises an embossed fibrous structure ply and an unembossed fibrous structure ply.

20. The embossed, multi-ply toilet tissue according to claim 1 wherein the embossed, multi-ply toilet tissue comprises two or more embossed fibrous structure plies.
