Potassium Gluconate is a food-grade potassium salt of gluconic acid, a white to yellowish crystalline powder used as a highly bioavailable potassium source in supplements, sports-nutrition drinks, and salt substitutes.We supply bulk Potassium Gluconate sourced from leading China manufacturers, available in powder form for international food processing operations. Our Potassium Gluconate is widely used in dietary supplements, reduced-sodium foods, electrolyte beverages, rehydration salts and oral rehydration therapy.
Potassium Gluconate (E577) is produced by neutralising gluconic acid with potassium hydroxide or potassium carbonate followed by crystallisation.
It is freely soluble in water, slightly sweet, and approved by FDA, JECFA and EFSA as a potassium salt and sequestrant. It is the preferred potassium source in low-sodium salts, effervescent tablets and IV nutrition.
