Claim:
Amido-functional aminopolydiorganosiloxanes of general formula (I) wherein R 1 represents the same or different monovalent C 1 to C 18 hydrocarbon residues optionally substituted with fluoro, chloro or bromo, hydrogen atoms, C 1 to C 12 alkoxy or hydroxy residues or alkylglycol residues; R 2 represents R 1 and/or one of the groups X and/or Y; X represents a group of general formula (II) and/or (III) —R 3 NZR 4 (II) —R 3 NR 5 (CH 2 ) p NZR 4 (III) wherein R 3 represents a divalent C 1 to C 18 hydrocarbon residue; R 4 represents a hydrogen atom or a C 1 to C 10 alkyl residue optionally substituted with fluoro, chloro or bromo; Z is derived from hydroxycarboxylic acids and oxidized mono- and disaccharides, each having at least 2 hydroxy groups; R 5 represents a hydrogen atom and/or Z; Y represents a group of general formula (IV) and/or (V) —R 3 NHR 4 (IV) —R 3 NH(CH 2 ) p NHR 4 (V) wherein R 3 and R 4 have the above mentioned properties; m has an average value of from 0.5 to 50; n has an average value of from 10 to 1500; o has an average value of from 0 to 50; and p represents the values 2, 3 or 4; with the proviso that the ratio of m to o is within a range of from 10:1 to 0.1:1.
