ABSTRACT:
Drywall tapes, drywall joints and methods for their construction are provided by this invention. The drywall tape of this invention includes a web of glass fibers and a coating disposed over a portion of the glass fibers. The coating includes a resinous binder which is at least partially soluble or dispersible in joint compound. The resinous binder is capable of forming an adhesive bond with the joint compound when set.
