Abstract
The invention relates to a method for producing polymer powder compositions which are redispersible in water and which are based on polymerisates of one or more ethylenically unsaturated monomers. In a first step, an aqueous polymerisate dispersion is produced by means of a radically initiated polymerization of one or more ethylenically unsaturated monomers in an aqueous medium, said polymerisate dispersion being convened into the polymer powder composition which is redispersible in water by means of a diving process. The invention is characterized in that the polymerization and the drying process are each carried out in a continuous manner, and the polymerization and the diving process are carried out in separate interconnected modules.
