Abstract

Abstract Employing as surface active agents salts of perfluoroalkane sulphonamides, preferably of the formula ##STR1## in which R F is a perfluorinated aliphatic group having 4 to 20 C-atoms, R is a hydrogen atoms, an alkyl group having 1 to 4 C-atoms, a hydroxyalkyl group having 1 to 4 C-atoms or a cycloalkyl group having up to 6 C-atoms, and M is an alkali metal, an alkaline earth metal or an onium group of the formula [ZR.sub.2 R.sub.3 R.sub.4 R.sub.5 ].sup.⊕, Z is phosphorus or nitrogen, and R 2 to R 5 each independently is a hydrogen atom, or an alkyl, hydroxyalkyl, or alkoxyalkyl group having 1 to 4 C-atoms per alkyl moiety.
