Patent ID: 8795842

Claim:
A fiber-containing paste-like building composition containing a) 40% to 80% by weight of one or more fillers, b) optionally 0.1% to 10% by weight of further additives, characterized in that c) 0.1% to 5% by weight of fibers, d) 4% to 17% by weight of one or more polymers based on one or more ethylenically unsaturated monomers and having a glass transition temperature Tg of ≧−15° C., e) ≦5% by weight of hydraulically setting binders and f) 4% to 26% by weight of water are present, where the % by weight is based on the dry weight of the fiber-containing paste-like building composition, and the polymers d) are selected from the group consisting of copolymers of one or more vinyl esters with from 1 to 50% by weight of ethylene; copolymers of vinyl acetate with from 1 to 50% by weight of ethylene and from 1 to 50% by weight of one or more further comonomers selected from the group consisting of vinyl esters having from 1 to 12 carbon atoms in the carboxylic acid radical; copolymers comprising from 30 to 75% by weight of vinyl acetate, from 1 to 30% by weight of vinyl laurate or vinyl esters of an α-branched carboxylic acid having from 9 to 11 carbon atoms and also from 1 to 30% by weight of (meth)acrylic esters of unbranched or branched alcohols having from 1 to 15 carbon atoms, which additionally contain from 1 to 40% by weight of ethylene; and copolymers comprising one or more vinyl esters, from 1 to 50% by weight of ethylene and from 1 to 60% by weight of vinyl chloride; wherein the figures in % by weight for the respective copolymer add up to 100% by weight, wherein 6% to 10% by weight of the one or more polymers d) are present.
