Particulate composition containing bleach and an optical brightener and process for its manufacture.

摘要

A manufacturing process and composition is claimed for a composition of matter comprising sodium carbonate, sodium carbonate perhydrate, a fluorescent whitening agent and a diphosphonic acid. The process comprises incorporating the fluorescent whitening agent and diphosphonic acid into aqueous hydrogen peroxide, uniformly applying the hydrogen peroxide solution to particulate sodium carbonate to form a reaction mixture, urging water vapor from the surface of the reaction mixture and maintaining the temperature of the reaction mixture between about 35 DEG C and 80 DEG C.
