In the production of drawn and ironed seamless metal cans an elongated sheet, for example, of tin-plated steel or aluminum, is lubricated and fed to a blanking and cupping press which cuts the sheet and forms it into shallow cups. The cups are fed to a series of ironing dies which thin the sidewalls of the cups and produce tall, smooth shells. While in the sidewall ironer the cups, shells and dies...

A back panty shield for a conventional sanitary napkin for feminine usage has a substantially unitary member having a forward portion that, in plan outline, flares outwardly to an enlarged rearward portion. The shield may be readily attached to the napkin by means of a transverse adhesive strip, and the disposition of the napkin relative to the shield may be adjusted to accommodate various wearers...

An absorbent batt of non-delignified fibers is stabilized by applying a lignin solvent to an assemblage of such fibers to soften at least 10 percent of the fibers. When the fiber assemblage is compressed and the solvent is removed, the softened lignin of adjacent contacting fibers cause a lignin-to-lignin interfiber bond to occur at the fiber intersection.
