A system and method for a metal sequestration composition comprising combining a galactaric salt or galactaric acid with a metalloid oxyanion, and an alkali compound. The system and method enable the production of a metal sequestration composition that either alone or in combination with other functional components (e.g. surfactants, solvents, pH modifiers) provide water treatment or cleaning compositions.

A first aspect relates to a particle including: (a) at least one bleaching agent including an organic peroxyacid; (b) at least one component selected from: (i) saccharides and polysaccharides, and derivatives thereof; (ii) inorganic fillers selected from the group consisting of talcs, micas, zeolites, silicates, metal oxides and clays; and (iii) linear, branched and cross-linked polymers and copolymers; (c) at least one pH reducing agent; and (d) at least one chelating agent. Further aspects relate to a process for preparing the particle, a composition or a dough including the particle, and use of the particle in a cleaning composition, a dental care composition, a hair dyeing composition or decolouriser, an antimicrobial composition or a bleach composition.
