01Overview
Sodium Gluconate
Sodium gluconate is a universal hydration retarder suitable for both cement and gypsum. It effectively slows down the setting rate of binding materials, extends working time on site, and enhances the workability and troweling feel of mortars and gypsum products. The recommended dosage is 0.05–0.25% for cement mortar and 0.10–0.30% for finishing gypsum. Always conduct a small-scale test prior to use, and it is advised to blend it with protein-based retarders to achieve more stable retarding performance.
