Applications & Uses

Application Method
Industrial Additives End Use
CP Soft 100A Softening Agent
CP Soft 100A is a non-ionic liquid containing water soluble silicones.
Applications
CP Soft 100A is used as a softening agent on the tissue paper machine by spraying a diluted solution on the felt before the suction press. CP Soft 100A will increase the hand-feel of the tissue paper. The increase of surface smoothness and the increase of flexibility of the tissue sheet is dependent on the amount of CP Soft 100A applied, the furnish used for the tissue paper, and the physical characteristics of the tissue paper. On the tissue paper machine, the product is used alone by spraying it at a concentration of typically 10% on the web before the suction press. Or it is combined with a cationic debonder with softening effect, such as CP Debond 637 which is added to the pulp before it reaches the head-box. In tissue converting operations the product is used in a water solution.
