Water-soluble copolymers based on a) 50 to 97% by weight of one or more non-ionic, ethylenically unsaturated monomers containing amide groups, b) 0.1 to 10% by weight of one or more ethylenically unsaturated monomers containing silane groups c) 1 to 30% by weight of one or more ionic, ethylenically unsaturated monomers and optionally one or more further ethylenically unsaturated monomers, are useful as protective colloids for inorganic particle and water-insoluble polymer particle dispersions. wherein the figures in % by weight add up to 100% by weight.

A wellbore fluid includes a base fluid; and a crosslinked and branched polymeric fluid loss control agent formed from at least an acrylamide monomer and a sulfonated anionic monomer; wherein the fluid loss control agent has an extent of crosslinking that is selected so that the fluid loss control agent has a viscosity that is within a peak viscosity response of the viscosity response curve.

A process for preparing an acrylic emulsion resin is provided by introducing specific monomers at a certain time during an emulsion polymerization process, dispersion stability and adhesion properties of the acrylic emulsion resin are improved, thereby providing an aqueous acrylic pressure-sensitive adhesive that not only has excellent initial adhesion but also has low viscosity and improved processability, and high adhesion holding power.
