Sodium Gluconate
Introduction:
 
Sodium Gluconate also called D-Gluconic Acid, Monosodium Salt is the sodium salt of gluconic acid and is produced by fermentation of glucose. It is a white granular, crystalline solid/powder which is very soluble in water,slightly soluble in alcohol, and insoluble in ether. Because of its outstanding property, sodium gluconate has been widely used in many industries.
 
Indicators:
 

1. Construction Industry: Sodium gluconate is an efficient set retarder and a good plasticiser & water reducer for concrete, cement, mortar and gypsum. As it acts as a corrosion inhibitor it helps to protect iron bars used in concrete from corrosion.
2. Electroplating and Metal Finishing Industry: As a sequestrant, sodium gluconate can be used in copper, zinc and cadmium plating baths for brightening and increasing luster.
3. Corrosion Inhibitor: As a high performance corrosion inhibitor to protect steel/copper pipes and tanks from corrosion.
4. Agrochemicals Industry: Sodium gluconate is used in agrochemicals and in particular fertilisers. It helps plants and crops to absorb necessary minerals from the soil.
5. Others: Sodium Gluconate also used in water treatment, paper and pulp, bottle washing, photo chemicals, textile auxiliaries, plastics and polymers, inks, paints and dyes industries.
