Claims12
A non-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC)-containing trichome composition comprising a plurality of non-THC-containing trichomes and a plurality of hardwood fibers, such that a resulting structure comprises greater than 80% trichome and hardwood fibers, wherein the non-THC-containing trichome composition exhibits one or more of the following characteristics:
- a. a Fiber Length distribution such that greater than 0.1% of the non-THC-containing trichomes exhibit lengths in the range of 3.20 mm to 7.60 mm;
- b. a Fiber Length distribution such that less than 2.50% of the non-THC-containing trichomes exhibit lengths in the range of 0.00 mm to 0.20 mm;
- c. a % Curl of the non-THC-containing trichomes of greater than 14.25% as measured according to the % Curl Test Method;
- and
- d. a % Hydrophobe Extracted from the non-THC-containing trichomes of greater than 1.80% as measured according to the % Hydrophobe Extracted Test Method.
A fibrous structure comprising a plurality of trichomes and a plurality of hardwood fibers, such that a resulting structure comprises greater than 80% trichome and hardwood fibers, wherein the trichomes exhibit one or more of the following characteristics:
- a. a Fiber Length distribution such that greater than 0.2% of the trichomes exhibit lengths in the range of 3.20 mm to 7.60 mm;
- b. a Fiber Length distribution such that less than 1.00% of the trichomes exhibit lengths in the range of 0.00 mm to 0.20 mm;
- c. a % Curl of the trichomes of greater than 15.00% as measured according to the % Curl Test Method;
- and
- d. a % Hydrophobe Extracted from the trichomes of greater than 2.10% as measured according to the % Hydrophobe Extracted Test Method.
