Products are described as sheets, such as tissue products made from a low density weft, containing an additive composition. The additive composition, for example, comprises an aqueous dispersion containing an alpha-olefin polymer, and an ethylene-carboxylic acid copolymer. The additive composition can be applied to the surface of the weft, so that it does not penetrate the weft thoroughly or even substantially. For example, the additive can be applied to one or both surfaces of the weft by engraving, press coating, atomization or the like. The additive composition can improve the strength of the tissue weave and / or improve the perceived softness of the weft. |
