1. A suspension process for preparing uniform, free-flowing, fine, white powders of a complex of PVP and H2 O2 having an H2 O2 content between about 18 and about 22% H2 O2 and about 2% water or less which comprises:
- (a) forming a suspension of water-insoluble PVP containing less than about 1% water in anhydrous ethyl acetate;
(b) slowly adding an aqueous H2 O2 solution containing about 70 to about 85% by weight H2 O2, the amounts of PVP and H2 O2 corresponding substantially to the desired molar ratio of PVP and H2 O2 in the complex, at a temperature of about 0°
-10°
C., under agitation, to precipitate a PVP-H2 O2 complex in the form of a uniform, free-flowing, fine, white powder,(c) filtering, and(d) drying the web precipitate with substantially no loss of H2 O2 to form the desired powders having the improved properties defined above.

Abstract
What is provided herein is a semi-anhydrous, suspension process for preparing substantially anhydrous complexes of PVP and H2 O2 containing about 18% to about 22% by weight H2 O2. The process comprises suspending substantially anhydrous PVP and an aqueous solution of 70 to 85% H2 O2 in an anhydrous ethyl acetate medium to precipitate a free-flowing, fine white powders of the complex, and filtering and drying under vacuum at about 40°-50° C. to form the desired product.
