Amphoteric derivatives of aliphatic polyamines, such as diethylenetriamine or bis (hexamethylene) triamine reacted with long chain fatty acids, esters or triglycerides from various natural or synthetic sources are effective in the softening/texture modification of substrates such as paper, textiles, human skin surfaces and hair tresses, as well as in applications for metal working and lubrication. The polyamines are first reacted with fatty acids, esters or triglycerides derived from various animal, vegetable or synthetic sources ranging in molecular distribution from butyric through erucic acids (e.g. milkfat, soy bean oil, rapeseed oil) to form amidoamines or imidazolines; and are then further reacted with unsaturated or carboxylated epoxy compounds (e.g. acrylic acid, itaconic acid, verndic) to form the various amphoteric structures.
