HYDROPHILIC, HUMECTANT, SOFT, PLIABLE, ABSORBENT PAPER AND METHOD FOR ITS MANUFACTURE

摘要

A hydrophilic, humectant, soft, pliant single-ply or multi-ply absorbent paper is formed from cellulosic fibers and up to 50 percent by weight of synthetic fibers and a softener having a melting range of 0°-40°C, wherein the softener comprises an imidazoline moiety formulated with at least one organic compound selected from alkoxylated polyols, alkoxylated diols, aliphatic diols, aliphatic polyols, and mixtures of these compounds. In the absorbent paper, the average particle size of the dispersed softener to the average fiber diameter is in the range of 0.01 to 15 percent.
