1. A process for thickening a preparation comprising an organic solvent said process comprising adding for the preparation of copolymers, consisting essentially of a1) 1 to 50% by weight of the repeat structural unit of the formula (1)

  • where n is an integer from 2 to 9 or a2) 1 to 50% by weight of a mixture of the repeat structural unit of the formula (1) and of the repeat structural unit of the formula (2)

    where R, R1 and R2 may be identical or different and are hydrogen or a linear or branched alkyl or alkenyl group having in each case 1 to 30 carbon atoms, and b) 49.99 to 98.99% by weight of the repeat structural unit of the formula (3)

    in which R3 is hydrogen, methyl or ethyl, Z is (C1-C8)-alkylene and X is an ammonium, alkali metal or alkaline earth metal ion and c) 0.01 to 8% by weight of crosslinking structures which originate from monomers having at least two olefinic double bonds.
