Disclosed is a continuous process for the production of bivalent metal peroxides, comprising the steps of introducing into an intensive mixing apparatus a solid, anhydrous or hydrated oxide or hydroxide of a bivalent metal; simultaneously introducing into the intensive mixing apparatus a solution of hydrogen peroxide, whereby the solid bivalent metal compound and the peroxide are intensively mixed and react to produce a reaction mixture containing bivalent metal peroxide; transporting the reaction mixture directly to a rapid dryer; and rapidly drying the reaction mixture to produce the bivalent metal peroxide in solid form.

A process for improving the storage behavior of alkali persalts in particularly alkali percarbonates, by preparing a granulate composition therefore is disclosed. The process comprises the steps of:

Process for improving the storage stability of alkali persalts

Stabilized crystalline sodium percarbonate is prepared by reacting a soda solution or suspension, which has a pH value of between 10 and 11 and contains an amount of a soluble silicate, e.g., sodium waterglass, which is equivalent to from about 0.2 to about 0.9% of SiO.sub.2 relative to the sodium percarbonate, with a hydrogen peroxide solution which contains a heavy metal complexing agent, allowing to crystallize at least 50% of the sodium percarbonate and then adding to the resulting suspension a second amount of a water soluble silicate which is equivalent to from about 0.2 to about 0.8% of SiO.sub.2 relative to the sodium percarbonate and is sufficient to provide a silicate content in the final product equivalent to 0.5 to 1.5% of SiO.sub.2.
