Abstract
Low molecular weight silicone copolymers prepared by reacting an oxamido ester-terminated silicone with a polyetheramine and a primary or secondary amine are useful in treating fabrics to obtain a soft hand and also hydrophilicity, and can be prepared without the use of highly toxic reagents.
