Sodium Gluconate
Product Overview:
CAS #: 527-07-1
Sodium gluconate is a biodegradable chelating agent and admixture used across construction, metal finishing, and food applications. It is commonly employed as a set retarder and water reducer in concrete admixtures, improving workability and extending working time without compromising final strength. Additionally, it serves as a chelating agent in metal surface cleaning and treatment, effectively removing scale and passivating metal surfaces without the corrosivity of stronger acids. Sodium gluconate is also utilized as a food additive and stabilizer, as well as a processing aid in textile finishing operations. Furthermore, it finds applications in general chemical manufacturing processes requiring a mild, biodegradable chelating agent.
