A dry mortar mixture based on at least one hydraulic and/or latently hydraulic binder which in the made-up and not yet cured state has firm properties is claimed. The novel dry mortar mixture is characterized in that it contains at least one representative of a dispersant and at least one compound having superabsorbent properties. This mixture makes it possible to carry over the advantages of known tile adhesives for horizontal application to vertical application possibilities.

Dry mortar mixture

Additives for application in construction chemistry are proposed comprising an organic and/or inorganic core component A) with rheology-enhancing properties and a shell component B) applied to the same by virtue of physical and/or chemical interactions which acts as a coating. Component A) should be a of water-soluble and/or water-swellable and/or water-absorbable compound of the non-cellulose type with viscosity-enhancing properties in the final application. The shell component B) should preferably be a film-forming polymer which is able to release component A) during the application in construction chemistry in a retarded manner such as for example polyvinyl alcohol, polyvinyl acetate and polyethylene glycol. Component B) can be composed of several layers and comprises at least one reactive layer. The new additive is used as an additive with a time-delayed action in paints and also for timed control of the increase in viscosity or development of rheology in building material systems based on inorganic binders.

Additive with applications in construction chemistry

The invention relates to water-soluble copolymers used as water retention agents, stabilizers and rheology modifiers in aqueous building material systems based on hydraulic binders such as cement, lime, plaster, anhydrite etc. and in water-based paint and coating systems. The inventive copolymers are highly effective water retention agents even when used in relatively small amounts. They also exhibit excellent air pore stability and adhesiveness. They can also be used as stabilizers in building material and paint systems.
