Product Description
Sodium gluconate, with its chemical formula C6H11NaO7, is a versatile organic substance that stands as a keystone in industrial applications. Renowned for its exceptional chelating capabilities, it finds its prominent role in diverse sectors: from construction to textile printing and dyeing, metal surface treatment to water treatment. As a superior steel surface cleaner and glass bottle cleaner, its efficacy is unmatched. Additionally, in the electroplating industry, it serves as a crucial aluminum oxide coloring agent. Not to forget, in the realm of concrete, sodium gluconate shines as a high-efficiency retarder and water reducer, amplifying both workability and strength.
In the realm of steel surface cleaning, sodium gluconate reveals its prowess. When steel surfaces need pristine preparation for plating with chrome, tin, or nickel, sodium gluconate ensures a superb cleaning action, fortifying the bond of coatings such as tinplate, galvanized sheets, and chrome plating. Its utility has been venerated by leading international manufacturers. As a cement admixture, sodium gluconate transforms concrete mixing practices. A mere 0.15% addition significantly enhances concrete's plasticity and strength, extending its workability from mere hours to several days without compromising integrity. This attribute is invaluable, especially in challenging conditions such as high temperatures or large-scale projects, where delayed setting times are critical. For instance, at a sweltering 170ºC in oil well construction, sodium gluconate maintains concrete plasticity for hours, addressing high-temperature challenges effectively. Its global acceptance in major construction endeavors, like Middle Eastern bridge projects, underscores its unmatched benefits. Unlike sodium cellulose sulfonate, derived from papermaking waste, sodium gluconate's superior performance and versatility extend to electroplating and film manufacturing, affirming its status as an excellent corrosion and scale inhibitor. Its untapped potential beckons further exploration and innovation, promising to revolutionize industrial landscapes.
