Try this :

$(document).ready( function () {
$('#example').dataTable( {
"sDom": 'T<"clear">lfrtip',
"oTableTools": {
"aButtons": [
"text"
]
}
} );
} );

See "text" in this page :
http://datatables.net/extras/tabletools/buttons

And eventually you should do this to set the properties of you export button :

$(document).ready( function () {
$('#example').dataTable( {
"sDom": 'T<"clear">lfrtip',
"oTableTools": {
"aButtons": [
{
"sExtends": "text",
"sButtonText": "Hello world"
}
]
}
} );
} );

Good luck.
