Abstract: The invention provides a process for depositing, at room temperature, a softening lotion on an absorbent paper product, especially cellulose wadding, which lotion is a liquid at room temperature and is of the type comprising one or more emollient active substances as a dispersion or as an emulsion in a volatile liquid vehicle, especially in water, characterized in that it consists in spraying the lotion by means of a stream of gas under pressure so as to remove at least part of the volatile liquid vehicle in order to form and spray fine droplets of lotion, having a low proportion of volatile liquid vehicle, which are deposited on at least one face of the paper product.

Abstract: The invention concerns a composition for a softening lotion which is liquid at a temperature of at least 5° C. and which is meant to be used in treating an absorbent paper product. In the invention, this composition comprises: (a) from 1 to 10% by wt. of a component essentially containing a quaternary ammonium compound; (b) from 5 to 99% by wt. of an aqueous emollient component which contains, as active substances: (i) one or more saturated linear fatty alcohols having at least 16 carbon atoms, (ii) one or more waxy esters having a total of at least 24 carbon atoms and, where called for, (iii) one or more nonionic and/or amphoteric emulsifiers; and (c) a balance to 100% by wt. of the required amount of a solvent of the type polyol, mineral oil or their mixtures. The invention relates to the manufacture of absorbent paper products.

Abstract: The invention concerns in particular a composition for a softening lotion used in fiber treatment. In the invention, the lotion composition is aqueous and liquid at a temperature of at least 5° C. and comprises, as active substances: (a) one or more saturated linear fatty alcohols having at least 16 carbon atoms, and (b) one or more waxy esters having a total of at least 24 carbon atoms. The application of the invention is to the manufacture of fibrous products such as disposable absorbent paper products.
