Abstract

Polymers composed of at least >80% by weight of monomers of the formula ##STR1## where R.sup.1, R.sup.2 and R.sup.3 are each C.sub.1 -C.sub.3 -alkyl, R.sup.4 is C.sub.1 -C.sub.5 -alkyl and X is 0 or NH, are used as assistants in the drying of aqueous polymer dispersions and, in the case of a weight average relative molecular weight of from 5000 to 35,000, additionally as protective colloid for the preparation of aqueous polymer dispersions by the free radical aqueous emulsion polymerization method.
