Coating Compositions For Producing Permanently Flexible Coatings

A coating composition based on one or more mineral binders, one or more polymers, one or more fillers and optionally one or more additives, wherein 2% to 30% by weight of lime, based on the dry weight of the coating composition, as a mineral binder and 0% to 3% by weight of fibres are present, based on the dry weight of the coating composition, in the coating composition,

• wherein 80% to 100% by weight of the mineral binders are lime, based on the dry weight of the mineral binders, and
• the one or more polymers are selected from the group consisting of copolymers of one or more vinyl esters with 1% to 50% by weight of ethylene;
• copolymers of vinyl acetate with 1% to 50% by weight of ethylene and 1% to 50% by weight of one or more further comonomers from the group consisting of vinyl esters having 1 to 12 C atoms in the carboxylic acid radical;
• copolymers of one or more vinyl esters and 1% to 50% by weight of ethylene and optionally 1% to 60% by weight of (meth)acrylic esters of unbranched or branched alcohols having 1 to 15 C atoms;
• and
• copolymers with 30% to 75% by weight of vinyl acetate, 1% to 30% by weight of vinyl laurate or vinyl ester of an alpha-branched carboxylic acid having 9 to 11 C atoms, and also 1% to 30% by weight of (meth)acrylic esters of unbranched or branched alcohols having 1 to 15 C atoms, further comprising 1% to 40% by weight of ethylene;
• and
• copolymers with one or more vinyl esters, 1% to 50% by weight of ethylene and 1% to 60% by weight of vinyl chloride.
