Creping adhesive containing an admixture of PAE resins

A process for creping tissue and/or towel paper comprising:

• (a) applying to a rotating creping cylinder an aqueous solution comprising from about 60% to about 99.99% water by weight and from about 40% to about 0.01% solids by weight comprised of a creping adhesive admixture;
• (b) pressing a tissue paper web against the creping cylinder to effect adhesion of the web to the surface of the cylinder;
• and
• (c) dislodging the web from the creping cylinder by contacting said web with a doctor blade,
• wherein the creping adhesive admixture in step (a) comprises from about 0.1 to about 50 weight percent of a first polyamide-epihalohydrin resin and from about 99.9 to about 50 weight percent of a second polyamide-epihalohydrin resin, said first polyamide-epihalohydrin resin and said second polyamide-epihalohydrin resin each being made by the reaction of a polyalkylene polyamine having at least one secondary amine group with a dicarboxylic acid to form a long chain polyamide containing the recurring groups:
• —[—NH(CnH2n—NH)p—CO—(CH2)m—CO—]—
• wherein n=1 to 8;
• p=2 to 5;
• m=0 to 10;
• and whereby the resultant reaction of each said first and said second polyamide-epihalohydrin resin is further reacted with epihalohydrin to produce said each first and second polyamide-epihalohydrin resin;
• and said first polyamide epihalohydrin resin having a mole ratio of said epihalohydrin to said secondary amine groups of said polyamide from about 0.5:1.0 to about 1.8:1.0, and said second polyamide-epihalohydrin resin having a mole ratio of said epihalohydrin to said secondary amine groups of said polyamide less than 0.5:1.0.
