The invention relates to a method for producing sulphate of potash granulates, wherein 0.1 to 7.5 wt % of a potassium chloride are added to the sulphate of potash during the granulation process, the percentage by weight being in relation to the sulphate of potash used. In addition, 0.1 to 2.5 wt % of water are added prior to or during the granulation process. The invention also relates to the granulates obtained by said method as well as the use of potassium chloride for improving the mechanical properties of sulfate of potash granulates. The sulphate of potash granulates produced by the method of the invention have significantly greater bursting strength and significantly greater abrasion resistance than granulates known from the prior art.

A coating composition includes an additive composed of a cellulosic powder which includes cellulose acetate, the cellulosic powder having a maximum particle size equal to or less than 2,000 microns; and at least one constituent mixed with the additive. The additive has 0.01 to 20 wt % based on a total amount of the coating composition being 100 wt %. The coating additive is mixed in the composition to modify gloss, surface durability, texturing, and/or haptic properties.
