Zusammenfassung:The invention relates to a method for the preparation of sodium percarbonate granules having enhanced stability, comprising modifying the surface of the sodium percarbonate granules by means of a surface reaction between sodium percarbonate and carbon dioxide or bicarbonate species to form a dense solid film of essentially sodium bicarbonate on the surface of the sodium percarbonate granules, said method comprising the steps of: a) dissolving carbon dioxide in water to form an aqueous solution containing dissolved carbon dioxide and bicarbonate, b) exposing the surface of the sodium percarbonate granules to a spray of said aqueous solution containing dissolved carbon dioxide and bicarbonate, to form said solid film of essentially sodium bicarbonate, and subsequently c) removing the residual fluid from the surface.
