Heat activated, fabric conditioning products are made by impregnating a thick, absorbent substrate with fabric-conditioner chemicals. Such products are designed for use at elevated temperatures encountered in laundry dryers. This invention provides a process for impregnating the substrate with liquid fabric conditioning chemicals. By limiting the volume of impregnate in contact with the substrate during compression of the substrate in a nip, precise control is obtained over both the quantity of impregnate and the uniformity of the impregnate in the substrate. It is critical that the volume of impregnate available at the nip be limited to a volume equal to or less than the apparent void volume of the substrate when compressed to a thickness equal to the nip gap. |
