The invention relates to the use of alkoxylated cyclic diamines, the reactive groups of which are alkoxylated by means of at least one C2 to C4 alkylene oxide, and the average degree of alkoxylation of which is between 1 and 200 alkylene oxide units per reactive group, in amounts of 0.0001 to 5 wt% relative to the oil content of the emulsion to be broken, to break water-in-oil emulsions. |
