Abstract
Abstract The present invention deals with the composition, and application of novel alkoxylated ether containing lactam compounds, useful as surface active agents. Compounds of this invention have emulsification, wetting, softening, anti-tangle, conditioning, complexation and solubilization properties. The compounds of the current invention conform to the following structure; ##STR1## wherein; R is an alkyl having from 10 to 36 carbon atoms; x, y and z are independently integers from 0 to 50, with the proviso that the sum of x+y+z be greater than zero.
