Abstract

The use of endgroup-capped fatty amide alkoxylates I EQU R.sup.1 --CO--NH--(CH.sub.2).sub.n --O--(AO).sub.x --R.sup.2(I) where PA1 R.sup.1 is C.sub.5 -C.sub.21 -alkyl or -alkenyl, PA1 R.sup.2 is C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 -alkyl, PA1 A is C.sub.2 -C.sub.4 -alkylene, PA1 n is 2 or 3, and PA1 x has a value from 1 to 6, as nonionic surfactants or emulsifiers in detergents, cleaners or body care compositions, as surface-active substances for industrial applications in electroplating, in the photographic industry, in petroleum production, in the pharmaceutical industry, in plant feeding and in crop protection formulations, and as surface-active substances in the production of emulsions and pigment and plastic dispersions.
