TISSUE PRODUCTS CONTAINING DELIQUESCENT MATERIALS AND NON-IONIC SURFACTANTS

摘要

Tissue products, such as facial tissue, bath tissue, paper towels, table napkins and the like can be improved by incorporating a sufficient amount of a deliquescent material and a non-ionic surfactant into the product. The deliquescent material is capable of maintaining a very high equilibrium amount of water in the product which can be advantageous in preventing the products from drying out and improving hand feel. The non-ionic surfactant improves the ability to incorporate the deliquescent materials into the tissue products quickly during manufacture and can help control the equilibrium moisture content of the product.
