Overview
Sodium Gluconate (CAS 527-07-1) is one of the specialty chemicals products Suraj Chemicals supplies to industrial, institutional and manufacturing buyers across India from our Chennai base. It is commonly used for chelating and sequestering agent in water treatment; concrete admixture (retarder); metal surface cleaning and passivation, among other applications in the specialty chemicals category. We pack Sodium Gluconate in 25 kg bags, and can arrange bulk, drum or tanker quantities for larger requirements — full characteristics, applications and downloadable documentation are below, or you can request a quote directly.

Buyer’s Notes
Choosing the grade. Sodium gluconate is chosen for its calcium and iron sequestering in alkaline conditions and for retarding set in concrete. Compare by assay and by the heavy-metal limits if the end use is sensitive.
What to check on the spec sheet. Assay (98-102%), pH (6.5-8.5), chloride, sulphate and heavy metals. Dosage in concrete is small, so batch-to-batch consistency matters more than price.
Handling and storage. Low hazard, but hygroscopic: keep bags sealed and dry to avoid caking.
Where it is used. Chelating agent in water treatment and cleaning, concrete retarder, and metal cleaning or passivation.
