A method for producing creped paper products comprising applying to a drying surface, a film-forming semi-crystalline polymer and a non-thermosetting cationic resin wherein the resin is characterized by a highly branched structure that lacks reactive intralinker functionality and which has a prepolymer backbone comprised of intralinked polyamidoamine. The invention also comprises a method for producing creped paper products comprising applying to a drying surface a film-forming semi-crystalline ...

A disposable wipe which comprises a substrate, an antimicrobial protease inhibitor, and a liquid. The antimicrobial protease inhibitor may be added directly to the substrate and/or added directly to the liquid. The antimicrobial protease inhibitor is capable of inhibiting deleterious fecal microorganisms and protease enzymes thereby aiding in the prevention of diaper dermatitis. The wipe may optionally include other ingredients examples of which include humectants, emollients, surfactants, fragr...

A soft tissue product and method for making a soft tissue product which exhibits resistance to limiting while maintaining physical strength integrity. The process includes debonding and mechanically treating papermaking fibers, forming a tissue web and drying the tissue web. The process allows for the use of high levels of debonding agents and hardwood fibers.

A process for dry creping tissue paper comprising the application of creping adhesives in at least two steps. The adhesive applied in at least one of the steps is a polyvinyl alcohol while the adhesive applied in at least one other step comprises a water-soluble, thermosetting, cationic polyamide resin. The process provides high adhesion and doctorability for dry creping.

A multi-ply paper product wherein the plies are adhesively joined together. One or both of the plies may have embossments protruding towards and contacting the other ply. The plies are adhesively joined, preferably at such embossments. The adhesive is selected from a composition that advantageously provides a minimum wet ply bond strength and a dry ply bond strength which falls within a particularly desired range.

A fabric article treating apparatus for dispensing a benefit composition through a nozzle that directs the benefit composition as droplets or particles into the chamber of the fabric article drying appliance. The droplets or particles provide benefits to the fabric articles within the drying appliance. The treating apparatus includes one or more safety features, and/or it includes beneficial control concepts that enhance the effects of the benefit composition being dispensed through the nozzle.

A dispensing apparatus for use with a replaceable unit dose package has at least one cavity sealed by a membrane, wherein the cavity contains additive materials to be dispensed. The dispensing apparatus is configured for use, for example, in a washing machine, wherein the washing machine has a plurality of cycles. The dispensing apparatus comprises a dispensing director having a dispensing signal generator and a monitor for distinguishing among a plurality of washing machine operating cycles. Th...

A method for the manufacture of creped hygienic cellulose paper, in particular. A hemicellulose containing additive, in particular galactomannan, xylan or highly milled birch pulp, is added to the pulp either prior to the pulp being deposited on the wire of the paper machine, after the pulp is deposited on the wire of the paper machine, or both before and after the pulp is deposited on the wire. As a result of this measure, the strength of the paper web thus produced and its runnability properti...

The present invention relates to a softening-through-the-wash composition comprising: (i) a fabric-softening cationic quaternary ammonium di-ester compound comprising a cationic quaternary ammonium component having the formula: ##STR00001## wherein, each R is independently selected from C.sub.12 C.sub.22 alkyl groups; and (ii) a source of acid selected from the group consisting of C.sub.12 C.sub.22 fatty acids, mono-alkyl esters of a C.sub.12-C.sub.22 alkyl sulphuric acids, C.sub.11 C.sub.13 alk...

A product and process for laundering delicate or dry-clean only garments in a conventional home washing machine. The process represents a home version of the commercial wet-cleaning processes for cleaning of delicate garments. The product may comprise a liquid cleaning composition, a wash pretreatment composition, a wash pretreatment applicator, an apparatus for dispensing a rinse cycle conditioner and a flexible wrap container within which the garments are contained during washing.
