Abstract
A method for producing a crystalline inorganic builder having the following composition in its anhydrous form: xM.sub.2 O.ySiO.sub.2.zMeO, wherein x, y and z are numerical values satisfying the following relationships: y/x is 1.0 to 4.0, z/y is not more than 1.0, M stands for Na and K, K/Na is 0.01 to 2.0, and Me stands for Ca and/or Mg, the method comprising the steps of (a) adding water, a Na-containing compound, a K-containing compound, and at least one member of Ca-containing compounds and Mg-containing compounds to silica sand, to give a mixture; (b) subjecting the resulting mixture to a hydrothermal treatment; and (c) baking the resulting treated mixture. Also, a method for producing a crystalline inorganic builder having the following composition in its anhydrous form: xM.sub.2 O.ySiO.sub.2, wherein x and y are numerical values satisfying the following relationships: y/x is 1.0 to 4.0, M stands for Na and K, K/Na is 0.01 to 2.0, the method comprising the steps of (a) adding water, a Na-containing compound, a K-containing compound to silica sand, to give a mixture; (b) subjecting the resulting mixture to a hydrothermal treatment; and (c) baking the resulting treated mixture.
