Use of surface-reacted calcium carbonate in tissue paper, process for preparing tissue paper product with improved flexibility, and resulting tissue paper product with improved flexibility

摘要

The present invention relates to the use of a surface-reacted natural calcium carbonate as filler in tissue paper products, to a process to prepare tissue paper products, and to a tissue paper product featuring an improved softness, wherein said surface-reacted natural calcium carbonate is the reaction product of a natural calcium carbonate with an acid and carbon dioxide, which is formed in situ by the acid treatment and/or supplied externally.
