CALCIUM GLUCONATE (MONO)

Calcium gluconate monohydrate is an organic calcium salt derived from gluconic acid. It is a white to faint yellow powder. The calcium is in the form of ions within a large, stable, organic structure, so that it can be uniformly dispersed in formulations. In practical applications, it can maintain the flow of powder products. It is used to inhibit caking in materials like coffee which may form lumps due to moisture or particle interaction. Its controlled interaction with surrounding components leads to improved texture and allows easier handling during storage and use.

A calcium salt used in food-related applications to improve stability and prevent clumping.
