Gluconates

Gluconates ingredients

Gluconic Acid

Gluconic acid is a naturally occurring mild organic acid, neither caustic nor corrosive and with an excellent sequestering power.

Glucono-delta-Lactone

Glucono-delta-lactone, a neutral cyclic ester of gluconic acid, is commonly used as a slow release acidifier.

NAGLUSOL®

Being a blend of sodium gluconate and gluconic acid, the principal property of NAGLUSOL® is its excellent chelating power.

Sodium Gluconate

Sodium gluconate is the sodium salt of gluconic acid, produced by fermentation of glucose. It offers an outstanding chelating power. 

Sodium Gluconate EMF 1240

Sodium gluconate EMF 1240 is the mother liquor of sodium gluconate and it is used as an appreciated concrete set retarding and plasticising agent.
