Corn Processing: Sodium Gluconate

Sodium Gluconate Granular
Sodium Gluconate is a high quality crystalline sodium salt of gluconic acid. It appears as white crystals that exhibit excellent solubility. This non-corrosive, non-toxic and highly pure gluconate is an excellent choice when dry material is preferred. Bulk density is approximately 59 pounds per cubic foot (0.95 g/cc).

DESCRIPTION:
