Ehm... everydaY all over the world, hundreds of , millions of cup of tea are made from tea bags. Why don't the leaves escape from the bag?
Well the bags are made from net-like filter paper that has holes large enough to let boiling waterin, but small enougn not to let any leaves escape!! the paper is also strong enough not to break in a high-speed-tea-packing machine.
No ordinary paper could meet these exacting demands. Tea bag paper is made from two strong fobers-manila hemp, a long natural fiber (used to make rope) for strength, and thermoplastic fibers to seal the bags.
The two fibers are not woven together-they are laid down as a watery mixture in 2 separate layers. They form paper when the water drains away and the damp web remaining is sequeezed dry thorugh rollers. this gives the paper an irregular web-like structure with pores varying in size.
The paper goes through the tea-packing machine in a sandwich of two strips. The machine measures out the amount of tea on the lower strip, and the bags are formed by heat sealing the sandwich together round the edges..
