Outer plies of cellulosic tissue and an intermediate, Isotropic, reinforcing textile length fiber web are attached together by a pattern of adhesive lines with the fibers of the web embedded in the adhesive lines, to provide a tissue fiber laminate nonwoven fabric which is flexible and conformable with adequate strength particularly in the cross direction so as to be suitable for use as a textile substitute. The process for manufacturing this nonwoven fabric in a single pass involves printing the adehsive on one web of cellulosic tissue in a clearly defined fine line pattern, laying the fiber web on the adhesive bearing surface of the tissue web, juxtaposing a second cellulosic tissue web on the fiber web, and hot calendering the three layer composite so as to force the adhesive through the fiber web into the second tissue web while bonding the fibers of reinforcing web in place, the amount, viscosity and line pattern of the adhesive being such as to obtain ply attachment and a soft, flexible, conformable fabric rather than a stiff, boardy, sleazy material which can result from overbonding.

A tissue fiber laminate comprising outer plies of cellulosic tissue with the machine direction of said tissue plies the same, an intermittent substantially isotropic web of randomly oriented fibers, and lines of adhesive in a pattern between said outer plies of tissue attaching the tissue plies to each other with the fibers of the fiber web bonded in the adhesive lines, said outer tissue plies each having a finished basis weight between about 7 and about 30 g/yd.2, said adhesive pattern comprising spaced lines extending transverse to the machine direction of said tissue plies, with the line width being more than about 0.010 inch and less than the spacing between lines, the spacing between lines being not greater than about 0.060 inch, and covering between about 25 and about 50 percent of the total area of the pattern, and the weight of the adhesive in the laminate being in the range of about 3 to about 20 g/yd.2, said substantially isotropic web comprising textile fibers in the range of about ½inch to about 3 inches in length, and of ½to 5 denier, and said web having a weight between about 4 and about 20 g/yd.2, the fibers being curled and crooked in the web as formed and having a degree of random orientation in the web such that the number of fibers having any given angle of orientation as measured by a tangent to segments on a statistical sample number of fibers is within plus or minus 50% of the average, and the fibers of said web being free of attachment to each other and to the tissue plies except where attached by the adhesive in the pattern to provide a bonded fiber matrix wherein the B/A factor for said adhesive pattern and said web is less than about 1.5, where A equals the straight line distance between bond points, and B equals the distance between bond points along the path of the crooked fiber segment. A method for the manufacture of tissue fiber laminates comprising introducing a substantially isotropic web of randomly distributed and well separated textile fibers of a length in the range between about ½inch and about 3 inches, and of ½to 5 denier between outer plies of cellulosic tissue wherein the machine direction of said tissue plies is the same, and attaching said tissue plies to each other while reinforcing said laminate to enhance the stretch to break and tensile strength in both the machine and cross directions of the laminate by bonding said isotropic web into a fiber matrix with a clearly defined pattern of essentially continuous spaced adhesive lines extending transverse to the machine direction of said tissue plies, with line width being more than about 0.010 inch and less than the spacing between lines, the spacing between lines being not greater than about 0.060 inch, and covering betWeen about 25 and about 50 percent of the total area of pattern, and the weight of adhesive being in the range of about 3 to about 20 g/yd.2, wherein the B/A factor for said adhesive pattern and said web is less than about 1.5, where A equals the straight line distance between bond points, and B equals the distance between bond points along the path of the crooked fiber segment, and such that the fiber segments contribute to the strength of the fiber matrix and provide a laminate having a grab tensile strength (average of machine and cross direction of above about 6 lbs./in.
