Abstract
Roll for the smoothing paper webs and process for producing roll. The roll includes a hard core, and an elastic covering layer arranged on an outside of the hard core. The covering layer includes a radially outer functional layer and a radially inner connecting layer arranged to couple the functional layer to the hard core. The inner connecting layer and the outer functional layer each include a soft matrix material with embedded fibers. The matrix material of the functional layer includes an elastic material with a damping factor of tan &dgr; less than about 0.02 and the matrix material of the connecting layer includes a damping material with a damping factor of tan &dgr; greater than about 0.05. The process includes forming an outer functional layer with an elastic matrix material having a damping factor of tan &dgr; less than about 0.02 and embedded fibers, forming an inner connecting layer with a damping matrix material having a damping factor of tan &dgr; greater than about 0.05 and embedded fibers, and coupling the outer functional layer to the hard core through the inner connecting layer to form an elastic covering layer on an outside of the hard core.
