Abstract

The invention relates to the use of a copolymer or a mixture of copolymers as foam-protecting agents in detergent or cosmetic formulations, comprising at least one monomer (I) selected from the acids, diacids or unsaturated C3-C5 anhydrides; or at least one monomer (II) selected from ethylene oxide and propylene oxide; or at least one monomer (III) selected from the linear or branched C4-C8 hydrocarbons, comprising at least one ethenoid unsaturation; or at least one monomer (IV) of formula R1 —COO—R2, where R1 is a possibly substituted linear or branched C1-C3 hydrocarbon radical; R2 is a linear or branched C1-C4 hydrocarbon radical which is possibly substituted by an anionic radical or a hydroxyl group; and the monomer (IV) further comprises at least one ethenoid unsaturation.
