Toilet paper based on tissue paper being treated with an O/W emulsion comprising at least one non-ionic emulsifier, at least one anionic co-emulsifier, an oil component having a polarity of at least 20 mN/m or a mixture of oil components wherein at least 75 weight-% of the oils constituting the mixture have a polarity of at least 20 mN/m, 6 to 35 weight % of water, based on the total weight of the emulsion, wherein the total amount of emulsifiers and co-emulsifiers is between 4 and 20 weight based on the total weight of the emulsion. Since in the above lotion composition the external phase is aqueous, a web treated therewith can easily be wet by water and does not float on the water if it is to be disposed in a toilet. Moreover, this lotion shows an improved brightness after application on tissue paper, smell and rheology.

Lotioned tissue paper having a short water absorption time

The invention provides water-in-oil emulsions containing (a) 12-21% by weight of polyglyceryl-2 dipolyhydroxystearate, (b) 4-7% by weight of a hydrogenated ethoxylated castor oil, (c) 25-35% by weight of mineral oil, (d) 20-30% by weight of further oil substances (e), 3-5% by weight of hydrotropes, (f) 3-4% by weight of metal soaps and (g) 10-30% by weight of water, based on the overall composition. The emulsions are useful for finishing textiles and papers.

Emulsions for finishing textiles and paper

A process for making paper substrates having a soft feel involving: (a) providing a paper substrate; (b) providing an emulsion containing: (i) a polyol poly-12-hydroxystearate; (ii) a wax ester; and (iii) a wax; and (c) impregnating the paper substrate with the emulsion.
