Abstract

Fibrous structures that exhibit a cross machine direction total energy absorption (CDTEA) of greater than 8 cm-g/cm 2 as measured according to the TEA Test Method.

Claims (29)

1. A multi-ply fibrous structure that exhibits a CD TEA of greater than 8.7 cm-g/cm 2 as measured according to the TEA Test Method and a Dry Burst of less than 600 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 100 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 100 g to about 500 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 CD TEA of greater than about 8.8 cm-g/cm 2 as measured according to the TEA Test Method.

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

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