Description

Application

D-Gluconic acid sodium salt has been used:

• as a component to make synthetic interstitial fluid.
• used as a carbohydrate.
• used as a substitute for sodium chloride to make chlorine (Cl^-) free media.

Biochem/physiol Actions

D-Gluconic acid is a mild organic acid with non-corrosive, non-odorous, non-volatile and biodegradable property. Enzymatic conversion of D-Glucose results in the final product D-Gluconic acid. Gluconic acid occurs from the oxidation of glucose and is naturally in fruit, honey and wine. When used as a food additive it helps regulate acidity. Sodium salt of D-gluconic acid is a strong chelating agent, chelating the anions of calcium, iron, aluminium, copper, and other heavy metals. It finds wide application in detergent industry for bottle washing, descaling of salt deposits and alkaline derusting. D-Gluconic acid usage as an additive in cement, gives strength and water resistance.
