Abstract

Abstract Non-ionic surface-active agents of the formula are disclosed: ##STR1## in which a=0 or 1, R denotes a C 8 -C 30 aliphatic or alicyclic radical, x+y totals a number from 1 to 10 and, in each unit, one of Z 1 and Z 2 denotes hydrogen and the other denotes the radical ##STR2## in which R 1 denotes methyl or ethyl. These products can be prepared simply and are suitable for use in cosmetic or pharmaceutical compositions and in particular in cosmetic compositions for treating the hair or skin.
