Abstract: A non-irritating multi-ply absorbent article made by treating an inner surface with one or more antimicrobial agents and treating the one or more outer surfaces with one or more siloxane compositions, and methods of making and using the same. The antimicrobial agent will remain confined to the inner portion of the absorbent article, thereby preventing irritation to the user, and the siloxane treated ply(s) will provide a pleasing, soothing, non-irritating tactile quality. In one embodiment, the siloxane composition comprises an amine-modified polysiloxane, in which case the product will also entrap any absorbed fluid, holding it in contact with the antimicrobial agent, and preventing it from wetting through the product and contacting the user.

Abstract: A soothing anti-viral lotion composition and a lotioned tissue product having a surface with the lotion composition applied thereto, and methods for making and using the same. The lotion composition includes an anti-viral organic acid and a topical delivery system. The topical delivery system includes one or more polyesters which allow incorporation of the organic acids into the lotion formulation, controls their delivery, and maintains them in the stratum corneum. The lotion composition may optionally contain a surfactant, an irritation inhibiting agent, and other additives.

Abstract: Tissue products having improved bulk and softness are made by adding one or more softeners/debonders and a silicone glycol copolymer of the papermaking fibers at the wet end of the tissue machine, prior to the formation of the tissue web. Suitable softeners/debonders include organoreactive polysiloxanes, quaternary ammonium compounds, quaternized protein compounds, phospholipids, and silicone quaternaries.

Abstract: The total active detergent solids which can be incorporated with a nonwoven web is increased by the separate addition of a solution containing the active detergent solids and a solution containing detergent enhancers, such as anti-redeposition agents, water-softening agents, and salts.

Abstract: An 11.times.11 inches meltblown web contains a sufficient amount of condensed liquid detergent to wash a load of laundry and does not exhibit an objectionable sticky feel.

Abstract: A polyolefin wash wipe containing a detergent and a long chain alkanolamide exhibits significant sustained time release of detergent, thereby enabling the user to repeatedly rinse the wipe while still retaining detergent for cleaning.
