Sodium Gluconate
CAS 527-07-1C6H11NaO7218.14 g/mol
Sodium Gluconate is an efficient concrete admixture used to improve the workability and strength of cement. Known for its high chelating power, it serves as a corrosion inhibitor and set retarder. This white crystalline powder is widely used in industries such as construction, water treatment, and pharmaceuticals. In Kenya and East Africa, its applications range from reinforcing concrete in construction to preserving food products. Buyers require detailed specifications and certificate of analysis due to concerns about supply chain consistency.
Main applicationConstruction — improves workability and strength of concrete
Sodium Gluconate is pivotal in enhancing construction materials, improving concrete's strength and durability. Its chelating properties are essential in water treatment and cleaning applications, preventing corrosion and improving operational efficiency. With its widespread use across construction, pharmaceuticals, and metal treatment, it remains a key component in diverse industrial processes, especially in regions like Kenya where infrastructure and industrial growth demand reliable additives.

Sodium Gluconate is a white to gray-white crystalline or granular powder, appreciated for its solubility in water and excellent chelating properties. It has a typical purity of ≥98%, often reaching 99% for high-grade applications. Its molecular formula is C6H11NaO7, with a molecular weight of approximately 218.14 g/mol. This grade is suitable for a wide range of applications, including construction, where it acts as a set retarder and plasticizer, and water treatment, where it prevents corrosion and scaling by chelating metal ions. When ordering, specify the purity grade and ensure document readiness, as certification discrepancies can lead to batch rejection.

Frequently asked questions
What is the CAS number of Sodium Gluconate?
The CAS registry number for Sodium Gluconate is 527-07-1. Its chemical formula is C6H11NaO7, with a molecular weight of 218.14 g/mol. Quote this number when requesting a quotation or checking documentation, as it identifies the substance unambiguously regardless of the trade name used.
What are the other names for Sodium Gluconate?
Sodium Gluconate is also referred to as D-Gluconic acid sodium salt and E576. These names describe the same substance, so a specification or enquiry written against any of them can be matched to this product.
What grade of Sodium Gluconate is supplied?
Sodium Gluconate is supplied as Technical grade. State the grade your process requires when requesting a quotation — where an alternative grade can be sourced, it is confirmed at quotation stage rather than assumed.
What concentration is Sodium Gluconate supplied at?
Sodium Gluconate is supplied at a concentration of 25 kg pack size. Concentration and assay are separate figures: the concentration describes the strength of the material as supplied, and the certificate of analysis issued for your consignment carries the measured values for that batch.
What is the purity of Sodium Gluconate?
The purity/assay figure recorded for Sodium Gluconate is 98%. Figures are typical values for the grade supplied; the certificate of analysis for your specific batch is the authoritative record and can be provided on request.
What does Sodium Gluconate look like?
Sodium Gluconate is described as white to gray-white crystalline powder. Appearance is a useful first check on receipt of goods, though it does not replace the certificate of analysis for confirming that the material meets specification.
What is Sodium Gluconate used for?
Common applications include construction — improves workability and strength of concrete, water treatment — corrosion inhibition and scale prevention, metal surface treatment — effective in cleaning and rust removal, food & beverage processing — acts as a sequestrant and stabilizer, pharmaceuticals — used in lab synthesis and as a plasticizer and oil & gas — set retarder in well cementing and drilling. The suitability of the product for a particular process depends on the grade and specification required, which is worth confirming against your own process conditions.
Which industries use Sodium Gluconate?
Sodium Gluconate is supplied to the Water Treatment, Food Processing & Beverage, Agriculture & Agrochemicals, Mining & Minerals, Construction & Admixtures, Pharmaceuticals & Healthcare, Cosmetics & Personal Care, Cleaning & Detergents, Paints, Coatings & Inks, Textile & Leather Tanning, Oil, Gas & Energy and Laboratories & Research sectors. These are the industries this product is listed against in our catalogue; if your application falls outside them, we can advise on suitability before you order.
What packaging is Sodium Gluconate available in?
Available in 25 kg bags, made by Shandong Fuyang Bio-Tech Co. Ltd. Where a different pack size or bulk delivery is required, it is confirmed at quotation stage against availability rather than listed here as standard.
What is the HS code for Sodium Gluconate?
Sodium Gluconate is recorded against the EC number 208-407-7 and the HS customs code 29181690. Quote this on customs and export paperwork; it is confirmed again on the commercial invoice for your specific consignment.
