Abstract: The use of a binder system comprising compounds containing aluminium oxide and silicon oxide for producing a hydrophilic building product, characterized in that the sum of the oxides calculated as Al2O3 and SiO2 in the binder system is ?40% by weight, based on the water-free binder system, and the contact angle of an oil drop placed on the surface of the cured building product is ?90°, where the contact angle determination is carried out under water, is proposed. The said hydrophilicity makes the building product easy to clean, with simple rinsing with water often being sufficient.

Abstract: A novel binder system comprising at least one latent hydraulic binder, at least one amorphous silica, optionally at least one reactive filler and at least one alkali metal silicate is proposed. It was surprisingly found that the binder system according to the invention hardens in the form of a hybrid matrix which is acid-resistant, water-resistant and alkali-resistant. The binder system can be used for the production of a hydraulically setting mortar which, after setting, hardening for seven days and subsequent storage for three days in acid, base and/or water, has compressive strengths of more than 15 N mm?2, preferably more than 20 N mm?2 and in particular more than 25 N mm?2, according to DIN EN 13888.
