Gluconic acid Description

Gluconic acid occurs naturally in fruit, honey and wine and is used as a food additive, an acidity regliator. It is also used in cleaning products where it helps cleaning up mineral deposits. It is a strong chelating agent, especially in alkaline solution. It chelates the anions of calcium, iron, aluminium, copper, and other heavy metals. Glucono delta lactone is a cyclic ester of D-gluconic acid. Structure
