Abstract: 1. Claims for the contracting States : BE, CH, LI, DE, FR, GB, IT, NL, SE Compositions which can be used in particular as adjuvants for mixtures based on hydraulic binders, characterised in that they comprise, by way of essential constituents : (a) a mixture of at least two aqueous dispersions of different vinyl polymers, chosen from at least two of the groups comprising : - the latices (designated by : latices A) which result from the copolymerisation of a monomer of the aromatic hydrocarbon type, containing from 8 to 14 carbon atoms and one or two bonds of ethylenic character, with a monomer of the acrylic or methacrylic type, which can be an acid, an ester of this acid with saturated aliphatic or cycloaliphatic alcohols having up to 8 carbon atoms, or a nitrile, an amide or an anhydride derived from this acid ; - the latices (designated by : latices B) which result from the copolymerisation of a monomer of the aromatic hydrocarbon type, containing from 8 to 14 carbon atoms and one or two bonds of ethylenic character, with a monomer of the diethylenic aliphatic hydrocarbon type, containing from 4 to 14 carbon atoms ; - the latices (designated by : latices C) which result from the homopolymerisation of a monomer chosen from the group comprising the vinyl esters of saturated aliphatic acids or of aromatic acids having up to 10 carbon atoms ; and - the latices (designated by : latices D) which result from the copolymerisation of at least two vinyl esters chosen from amongst those mentioned for the latex C ; and (b) an aqueous solution containing either a water-reducing agent or a mixture of a water-reducing agent with a water-soluble salt derived from an oxygen-containing, mineral or carboxylic monoacid or polyacid, at least one of the acid groups of which has an ionisation constant pKa, in water at 25 degrees C, of less than 2.5. 1. Claims for the Contracting State : AT Use of a composition obtained by mixing : (a) 10 to 95% by weight of at least two aqueous dispersions of different vinyl polymers, containing 30 to 60% of dry polymers and chosen from at least two of the groups comprising : - the latices (designated by : latices A) which result from the copolymerisation of a monomer of the aromatic hydrocarbon type, containing from 2 to 14 carbon atoms and one or two bonds of ethylenic character, with a monomer of the acrylic or methacrylic type, which can be an acid, an ester of this acid with saturated aliphatic or cycloaliphatic alcohols having up to 8 carbon atoms, or a nitrile, an amide or anhydride derived from this acid ; - the latices (designated by : latices B) which result from the copolymerisation of a monomer of the aromatic hydrocarbon type, containing from 8 to 14 carbon atoms and one or two bonds of ethylenic character, with a monomer of the diethylenic aliphatic hydrocarbon type, containing from 4 to 14 carbon atoms ; - the latices (designated by : latices C) which result from the homopolymerisation of a monomer chosen from the group comprising the vinyl esters of saturated aliphatic acids or of aromatic acids having up to 10 carbon atoms ; and - the latices (designated by : latices D) which result from the copolymerisation of at least two vinyl esters chosen from amongst those mentioned for the latex C ; and (b) 90 to 5% by weight of a 10-50% strength aqueous solution containing either a water-reducing agent or a mixture of a water-reducing agent with a water-soluble salt derived from an oxygen-containing, mineral or carboxylic monoacid or polyacid, at least one of the acid groups of which has an ionisation constant pKa, in water at 25 degrees C, of less than 2.5, as an adjuvant to be incorporated into mixtures based on hydraulic binders.
