Definitions

• the present invention relates to the use of water-soluble polymers of defined composition as drying aids for the production of redispersion powders and / or powdery, polymeric dispersants.
• Aqueous polymer dispersions are generally known. These are systems with redispersing properties which essentially contain spherical balls of intertwined polymer chains (so-called polymer particles) in disperse distribution. Just like polymer solutions when the solvent is evaporated, aqueous polymer dispersions have the potential to form polymer films when the aqueous dispersion medium is evaporated, which is why they are used in particular as binders, adhesives and coating agents.
• a disadvantage of the application of the aqueous polymer dispersions is that they are not fully satisfactory as a sales form.
• their transport from the place of manufacture to the place of use always implies the transport of the mixing water, which is actually readily available everywhere.
• aqueous polymer dispersions can be added to mineral binders for the purpose of modifying them only at the place of use, since they otherwise harden before use.
• storage and transportation of the ready-to-use formulation can cause problems in the polymer dispersions due to phase separation, subsequent thickening, and damage caused by the effects of frost and bacteria.
• a desirable form of aqueous polymer dispersions, when water is added, is therefore a polymer powder which is redispersible.
• a great advantage of redispersion powders over liquid dispersions is that dry mortar mixtures can be produced that only need to be mixed with water at the construction site. This has many advantages such as increased occupational safety, safe handling and easier container emptying.
• Dispersants and in particular cement dispersants are often added to building materials that harden hydraulically in order to achieve sufficient flowability and workability of the concrete or mortar, which is particularly important with low so-called w / c values.
• the consistency and processability of these building materials decrease with falling w / c ratios.
• cement dispersants based on polycarboxylate ethers have been used, which are able to meet the above-mentioned requirements much better.
• These polycarboxylate ethers are Radical polymerization reactions are preferably produced in an aqueous medium and are obtained as an aqueous solution.
• the polymerization can also take place in mixtures of water with organic solvents or in an emulsion or in bulk.
• a particularly expedient method for converting an aqueous polymer dispersion into a redispersible polymer powder or a pulverulent dispersant is the process of spray drying, in which the polymer dispersion is sprayed and dewatered in a hot air stream. Since the polymers to be used for modifying mineral binders or as binders for plastic plasters generally have a glass transition temperature below 60 ° C, the spray drying process for producing their redispersible polymer powders can either not be used at all or only in an uneconomical temperature range without the use of spray aids apply.
• a further disadvantage of the conventional spray drying process for this type of polymer is that it is often necessary to add not insignificant amounts of inorganic additives before drying, due to which the active ingredient in the resulting powder inevitably decreases; or else the polymer is absorbed by the carrier material, which in turn leads to significant losses in effectiveness in use.
• drying aids Compounds have long been known whose addition to aqueous polymer dispersions reduces the appearance of the irreversible secondary particle formation already mentioned as undesirable during drying. These compounds are summarized under the generic term drying aids. They are often known in particular as spraying aids, since the spray drying, which has also already been mentioned, promotes the formation of irreversible secondary particles to a particular extent. The spray aids generally prevent caking or clumping during the drying process and generally at the same time reduce the formation of a polymer coating adhering to the dryer wall during the spray drying, and they thus increase the powder yield.
• EP-A 407 889 recommends condensation products of phenolsulfonic acid and formaldehyde as drying agents for aqueous polymer dispersions.
• DE-OS 24 45 81 3 recommends condensation products containing sulfone groups from mono- or polynuclear aromatic hydrocarbons and formaldehyde as drying aids, while DE-OS 41 1 8 007 describes condensation products from sulfonated phenols, urea, other organic nitrogen bases and formaldehyde as drying agents.
• DE-OS 33 44 242 lignin sulfonates are mentioned as drying aids.

• EP-OS 1 95 39 460, EP-A 671 435 and EP-A 629 650 disclose homo- and copolymers of 2-acrylamido-2-methylpropanesulfonic acid as suitable drying aids for aqueous polymer dispersions.
• EP-A 467 103 is the preparation of polymer powders redispersible in aqueous media by drying and with the addition of copolymers of 50 to 80 mol% of an olefinically unsaturated mono- and / or dicarboxylic acid and 20 to 50 mol% of one C 3 - to C 12 alkene and / or styrene as drying aids.
• graft polymers of polyalkylene oxides and unsaturated monodicarboxylic acids or their anhydrides are recommended as drying aids after derivatization with primary / secondary amines or alcohols.
• DE-OS 33 44 242 and EP-A 536 597 name starch and starch derivatives as suitable drying aids, while DE-OS 33 42 242 also discloses cellulose derivatives as suitable drying aids.
• DE-OS 493 1 68 recommends organopolysilanes as drying aids.
• the spray auxiliaries known according to the prior art described have various disadvantages: namely, if the naphthalene sulfonic acid or phenol sulfonic acid / formaldehyde condensation products known from DE-OS 24 45 81 3, EP-A 78 449 and EP-A 407 889 are used, so obtained one colored products.
• Condensation products from sulfonated Phenols, ureas, other nitrogen bases and formaldehyde as spray aids, as described in DE-OS 41 1 8 007 are white after spray drying, but they tend to be in a strongly alkaline medium, as is typical for mineral binders, and in the presence of metal ions for re-coloring.
• redispersion powder produced in this way is the possible release of formaldehyde during or after its use due to decomposition reactions which can take place in the basic environment of a cement matrix.
• decomposition reactions which can take place in the basic environment of a cement matrix.
• redispersible dispersions especially when used indoors, are being avoided more and more due to ecological and health aspects.
• the spray aids known from DE-OS 41 1 8 007 and EP-A 467 103 impair the product properties of the polymers sprayed therewith as binders in use.
• a disadvantage of the spray aids is their completely or partially neutralized water-soluble copolymers which, in addition to hydrophobic monomers, also contain copolymerized 50 to 80 mol% of monomers containing carboxyl groups (EP-A 467 103).
• EP-A 467 103 On the basis of such polymer powders, for example, it is not possible to formulate plastic plasters whose water resistance is fully satisfactory.
• This also applies to spraying aids based on vinylpyrrolidone / vinyl acetate according to EP-A 78 449 or polyvinyl alcohol according to DE-OS 22 14 410.
• the object of the present invention is therefore to provide suitable drying aids for the production of redispersion powders and / or powdery, polymeric dispersants.
• drying aids the original polymer properties should not be negatively influenced with regard to their effect, especially in hydraulic systems, and generally no undesirable side effects such as discoloration or an increase in viscosity should occur during processing in the building material system.
• the drying aid should also be well compatible with the redispersion powder or the polymeric dispersant, so that a possible phase separation or separation of the components or components before the drying process is avoided.
• the drying aids should also be suitable for the production of polymer powders redispersible in an aqueous medium, which can also be used as an additive in mineral binders, but are also suitable, for example, for the production of plastic plasters.
• the polymer powders obtained in this way should be free of toxicologically harmful constituents such as formaldehyde. This object was achieved by the use according to the invention of water-soluble polymers consisting of
• the polymers used according to the invention are extremely effective in spray drying because a Adhesion of the polymer powder is advantageously prevented during production. Furthermore, it is surprising that the spray auxiliaries according to the invention can also be used in amounts which go beyond the amounts required for spray drying and yet the tendency to block of the dispersion powder is significantly reduced without adversely affecting the physical properties of the mineral-setting binder systems Act. Completely surprising and unpredictable, it has also been shown that the redispersible powders produced by the claimed use have a positive effect on the flow properties and thus the processability and the surface properties of mineral-setting binders, without having a dispersing effect on the individual components.
• DE-OS 1 96 25 984 describes a process for the preparation of an aqueous polymer dispersion by polymerizing a) monoethylenically unsaturated monomers bearing acid groups in acidic, partially or completely neutralized form in the presence of hydrophilized, vegetable and / or animal and / or technical fats or oils with optionally b) further monomers which can be copolymerized with the monomers a), acrylic monomers, methacrylic acid and methallylsulfonic acid being used as monomers a).
