"GENERICALLY FLAT SANITARY PAPER SUBSTRATE; MULTIPLE LAYER SANITARY PAPER PRODUCT; GENERICALLY FLAT SANITARY PAPER; PROCESS TO PRODUCE AN ACTIVABLE SANITARY PAPER; A sanitary paper of dual intensive properties. Sanitary paper has a first set of intensive properties that include density, surface area, thickness and void volume as presented to the consumer. The consumer plastically activates the paper by pulling it under tension. A series of slits 44 or other tear lines extend in a direction parallel to the tension line, allowing the paper to reach a second state of intensive properties. The value of the second state of intensive properties is different after activation. Changing the intensive properties allows for economy in transportation as a higher density product is shipped to the consumer. At the point of use, the consumer activates the product to increase surface area and decrease density. Increased surface area and concomitant reduction in density ensure greater cleaning efficiency. The plastically activatable state can be obtained by a series of slots 44 or other tear lines in the sanitary paper. The sanitary paper may comprise cellulosic and / or synthetic fibers. Toilet paper can be used as facial tissue, toilet paper, paper towel, napkin, body tissue, mop, etc.
