A process for preparing powdered dispersants comprising at least 90% by weight of at least one copolymer CP of the polycarboxylate ether type. The powdered dispersants can be easily dispersed in water. The invention also relates to the use of such powdered dispersants in mineral binder compositions, in particular dry mortars, concrete or gypsum formulations.

Provided are cementitious panel that include a swellable material within a core layer, a dense layer, and/or a sheet of facing material that make up a cementitious panel, as well as methods of manufacturing such cementitious panels that include a swellable material and methods of providing a moisture or water barrier in a cementitious panel.

A method for the application of hydrous mineral binder compositions which contain fibres. An aqueous accelerator is mixed with the aqueous binder composition in a mixer shortly before the application. The method is very robust and makes it possible to quickly produce even large moulded bodies having a uniform surface and very good strength development properties.
