Amido-methyl-polyglycol-formals of the formula WHEREIN R represents an alkyl or alkenyl radical containing 8 to 21 carbon atoms, R1 represents hydroxyl or the radical R2 represents hydrogen or one of the radicals -CH2OH or CH2[O(C2H4O)m- CH2]x-R1, m and x each represent integers of 1 to 20. The compounds may be prepared by reacting fatty acid amides with formaldehyde and glycol formals of the formula H[O(C2H4O)m-CH2]xOH (II) wherein m and x have the meaning given above. The compounds are useful as detergents, emulsifiers and softening agents for textiles and for reactions with textiles to produce a hydrophobic effect.
