Composition containing humidity regulators for preparing tissue products

A tissue product in a form of a wet-laid or air-laid product or a non-woven product of a sheet support material having at least one ply and containing primarily cellulose fibers, comprising a composition containing a moisture regulator in an amount of 40% to 90% by weight, and at least one non-ionic surfactant in an amount of 1% to 25% by weight of the composition, wherein the surfactant comprises an amine oxide and/or hydroxy acid esters and/or at least one ampho-surfactant, except for myristyl acetate and sodium salts of fatty alcohol acetates, wherein at least part of the composition is present as an application, in micro-encapsulated form, embedded in micro-sponges or in the form of liposomes on or in the plies.

A process for production of tissue products, comprising applying a composition containing a moisture regulator for tissue products onto a fiber web or onto a tissue sheet within a wire section, a press section, a through-air drying section, on a Yankee cylinder and/or a drying section, at a fibrous material density of 20% to 97% of a dry fiber weight of the sheet, wherein the application is carried out in an amount of 0.001% to 50% by weight, continuously or discontinuously onto or into the web or sheet, and wherein the web or sheet optionally undergoes a smoothing process after the application, said composition comprising at least one non-ionic surfactant in an amount of 1% to 25% by weight of the composition, wherein the surfactant comprises at least one amine oxide and/or hydroxy acid esters, except for myristyl acetate and sodium salts of fatty alcohol acetates, and/or at least one ampho-surfactant, and wherein the moisture regulator is present in an amount of 40% to 90% by weight of the total composition.

A process for production of tissue products, comprising applying a composition containing a moisture regulator for tissue products onto a fiber web or onto a tissue sheet after being treated by a drying section of a tissue paper machine, on a combiner and/or in a converting unit, wherein the application is carried out in an amount of 0.1% to 50% by weight, continuously or discontinuously onto or into the web or sheet, and the web or sheet optionally undergoes a smoothing process after the application, said composition comprising at least one non-ionic surfactant in an amount of 1% to 25% by weight of the composition, wherein the surfactant comprises at least one amine oxide and/or hydroxy acid esters, except for myristyl acetate and sodium salts of fatty alcohol acetates, and/or at lest one ampho-surfactant, and wherein the moisture regulator is present in an amount of 40% to 90% by weight of the total composition.

A process for production of a multi-ply tissue product, comprising applying a composition containing a moisture regulator for tissue products onto a multi-ply tissue sheet within a wire section, a press section, a through-air drying section, on a Yankee cylinder and/or a drying section, at a fibrous material density of 20% to 97% of a dry fiber weight of the sheet, wherein the application is carried out in an amount of 0.001% to 50% by weight, continuously or discontinuously onto or into the web or sheet, and wherein the web or sheet optionally undergoes a smoothing process after the application, said composition comprising at least one non-ionic surfactant in an amount of 1% to 25% by weight of the composition, wherein the surfactant comprises at least one amine oxide and/or hydroxy acid esters, except for myristyl acetate and sodium salts of fatty alcohol acetates, and/or at least one ampho-surfactant, and wherein the moisture regulator is present in an amount of 40% to 90% by weight of the total composition.
