Redispersible polymer powders are prepared by emulsion polymerization of ethylenical, unsaturated monomers in the presence of a protective colloidal stabilizer containing 20 to 95 weight percent of polymerized monomers containing sulfonic acid or sulfonate groups, 5 to 80 weight percent of polymerized monomers containing amide groups or hydroxylalkyl groups, and up to 5 weight percent of polymerized monomers which are hydrophobic, water-insoluble ethylenically unsaturated compounds. The redispersible polymers are suitable for use in construction materials and coatings, and exhibit higher water resistance than similar polymers stabilized with polyvinyl alcohol as a colloidal stabilizer.
