Thanks for your replies. I am trying to find out the wet strength of cellulose tissue based on the limited information provided, if possible. I am not a scientist and do not plan on doing any testing. However, it is important for a work-related assignment to know if such a calculation is possible based only on knowing the dry weight percent of wetting agent resin. My opponent has argued that simply doing the calculation (0.001*2000) will reveal wet strength of the tissue and I am doubtful.

Hello: I am trying to determine the wet tensile strength for tissue fibers in units of pounds per ton. All I know is that a wet-strength resin is added to the tissue fibers and is present in an amount of at least 0.1 dry weight percent. Is there enough information to do this conversion? Or what other information would be required? Thanks in advance.
