Abstract: The invention relates to a process for preparing binders for plastisols that ensures high and consistent product quality over a multiplicity of batches. The binders obtained from this process allow the formulation of plastisols which possess improved stability on storage and, after gelling, improved mechanical properties.

Abstract: The invention relates to plastisol systems with improved adhesion and with lower water absorption.
