The invention provides methods and compositions for softening paper. An inventive composition and method of its use softens paper products (like tissue paper) by de-bonding its cellulose fibers and by improving the smoothness of the resulting paper. The invention forms a surfactant-polymer complex that attaches de-bonding non-ionic surfactants to cellulose fibers that would otherwise not be retained by the cellulose fibers. This complex prevents the fibers from bonding with each other and makes the paper product smoother. Best of all, the composition is environmentally superior and is a non-toxic.

Debonder and softener compositions

Polysiloxane polyether copolymers with amino groups and/or quaternary ammonium groups in the polyether moiety, process for their preparation from hydrogen siloxanes and chlorine-containing unsaturated polyethers in a hydrosilylation reaction with subsequent substitution of chlorine by amine groups and use as softeners for textile fabrics.

Polysiloxane-polyether copolymers with amino groups and/or quaternary ammonium groups in the polyether moiety and processes for the preparation thereof

Endblocked polysiloxanes with lateral amino functions and at least one further lateral and/or terminal functional group.

Polysiloxanes with nitrogen-containing groups
