Sodium Gluconate CIP Detergent Formulation
Product code RXSOL-12-1518-025
Sodium Gluconate is the sodium salt of gluconic acid. It is a biodegradable chelating agent widely used in CIP (Clean-In-Place) detergents
Description
What is Sodium Gluconate?
Sodium gluconate is the sodium salt of gluconic acid. It is a biodegradable chelating agent widely used in CIP (Clean-In-Place) detergents, especially for:
-
Dairy plants
-
Beverage & brewery systems
-
Food processing equipment
-
Pharmaceutical reactors
-
Heat exchangers and pipelines
Why Sodium Glucoante required in Ready mix Concrete Production?
Concrete production is facing high temperature, fast setting, poor fluidity, or strength inconsistency, then our high-purity Sodium Gluconate will be a powerful solution for your plant.
Sodium Gluconate supplier and exporter. Sodium Gluconate used in concrete admixture. Sodium Gluconate CAS Number: 527-07-1
Application
Why Use Sodium Gluconate in CIP?
Sodium Gluconate as Chelating (Sequestering) Agent
It binds hardness ions like:
-
Ca²⁺
-
Mg²⁺
-
Fe³⁺
This prevents:
-
Scale formation
-
Re-deposition of minerals
-
Water hardness interference
Sodium Gluconate also used as concrete retarder, water reducing agent. Also sodium gluconate as a retarders keep concrete workable during placement and delay the initial set of concrete an additional admixture which uses in mortar/concrete.
Precautions
Sodium GLucoante is more usefull When
✔ High iron water
✔ Hard water conditions
✔ Dairy scale problems
✔ Heat exchanger cleaning
✔ Alkaline CIP systems
Important Technical Notes
-
Stable in strong alkaline solutions
-
Compatible with chlorine at controlled levels
-
Works best at pH > 10
-
Not a strong acid scale remover (acid CIP required for heavy carbonate deposits)
Sodium Gluconate is the sodium salt of gluconic acid and is produced by fermentation of glucose. It is a white granular, crystalline solid which is very soluble in water. It is non corrosive, non toxic, biodegradable and renewable. It is resistant to oxidation and reduction even at high temperatures. The main property of sodium gluconate is its excellent chelating power, especially in alkaline and concentrated alkaline solutions. It forms stable chelates with calcium, iron, copper, aluminium and other heavy metals. It is a superior chelating agent than EDTA, NTA and phosphonates.
