Sodium Gluconate
Sodium Gluconate supplier and exporter. Sodium Gluconate used in concrete admixture. Sodium Gluconate CAS Number: 527-07-1
Sodium Gluconate also used as concrete retarder, water reducing agent. Also sodium gluconate as a retarders keep concrete workable during placement and delay the initial set of concrete an additional admixture which uses in mortar/concrete.
Sodium Gluconate is white or slight yellowish crystal free flowing powder. Sodium gluconate is a compound with formula NaC6H11O7 having water soluble nature.

- Sodium gluconate is widely used in textile dyeing, printing and metal surface water treatment. It is also used as a chelating agent, a steel surface cleaning agent, a cleaning agent for glass bottles, and as a chelating agent for cement, plating and alumina dyeing industries.
- In the field of medicine, it can maintain the balance of acid and alkali in the human body, and recover the normal operation of nerves.
- It can be used in the prevention and cure of the syndrome for low sodium.
- It can be used as a water quality stabilizer because it has excellent inhibiting capacity to scale.
- Used as surface cleaning agent for metals
- Used as cleaning agent of glass bottles
- It also can be used as water reducing agent and retarder in the building industry. Sodium gluconate is also an efficient set retarder and a good plasticiser & water reducer for concrete, cement, mortar and gypsum.
Difference between Cement Retarder and Cement Accelerator
Retarding admixtures : Generally used in HOT Weather.
Chemicals : Sodium Gluconate, Gypsum,sugar,strach etc
Retarding admixtures helps and work as water reducing agent and Cemenrt retarder keep concrete workable during placement and delay the initial set of concrete. Chemically retarder slow the setting rate of concrete, are used to counteract the accelerating effect of hot weather on concrete setting. High temperatures often cause an increased rate of hardening which makes placing and finishing difficult. Retarders keep concrete workable during placement and delay the initial set of concrete. Most retarders also function as water reducers and may entrain some air in concrete. Retarder use for increase setting time of cement.
Accelerating admixtures : Generally used in COLD Weather.
Chemicals : Refined silicates, Aluminium sulfate and synthetic plasticizer, calcium chloride etc.
Accelerators make concrete set faster rapidly after mixing with concrete. This product can be added to a concrete batch either immediately before or during mixing to kick the set time of a batch of concrete into high gear and initiate setting time one to three times faster than normal mortar and concrete. On the other hand Accelerating admixtures increase the rate of early strength development, reduce the time required for proper curing and protection, and speed up the start of finishing operations. Chloride Free and Accelerating Compund for Concrete and Mortar. Accelerator is use for reduce setting time.
Accelerating admixtures are especially useful for modifying the properties of concrete in cold weather.

Sodium gluconate is the sodium salt of gluconic acid and is produced by fermentation of glucose. It is a white granular, crystalline solid which is very soluble in water. It is non corrosive, non toxic, biodegradable and renewable. It is resistant to oxidation and reduction even at high temperatures. The main property of sodium gluconate is its excellent chelating power, especially in alkaline and concentrated alkaline solutions. It forms stable chelates with calcium, iron, copper, aluminium and other heavy metals. It is a superior chelating agent than EDTA, NTA and phosphonates.
