Application of Gluconic Acid Sodium Salt
- Construction industry. As a water reducer, sodium gluconate can reduce the water-cement ratio, thereby improving the workability of concrete and increasing the strength of concrete. In addition, it can significantly delay the setting time of concrete, especially in high temperature seasons or large-scale engineering operations, this feature is particularly important.
- Electroplating industry. Sodium gluconate can be used as an electroplating additive to improve the quality of the coating.
- Cleaning agent. Used as a steel surface cleaning agent, gluconic acid sodium salt can improve the cleaning effect and make the coating more firmly bonded to the steel surface.
- Water quality stabilizer. Due to its excellent corrosion and scale inhibition effect, it is widely used as a water quality stabilizer, such as the circulating cooling water system of petrochemical enterprises.
- Food industry. It is often used as a nutritional supplement, curing agent, buffer, etc. It can adjust the taste and acidity of food and improve the flavor and taste of food. For example, adding sodium gluconate to low-fat cheese can eliminate its original bitterness and astringency and improve the overall taste. In addition, sodium gluconate can also replace salt for the production of salt-free food, with the advantages of no irritation and no bitterness.
- Pharmaceutical industry. It can be used to regulate the acid-base balance in the human body and restore normal nerve function.
The production methods of sodium gluconate mainly include biological fermentation, double enzyme method, multiphase catalytic oxidation method, etc. Among them, biological fermentation and double enzyme method are the main methods used in domestic large-scale industrial production. These two methods have the advantages of high initial sugar concentration, short cycle, easy product extraction and stable production.
