Our potassium gluconate powder is a high-purity organic potassium salt produced from gluconic acid and potassium carbonate or potassium hydroxide through neutralization reaction and spray drying. The product is a white to off-white free-flowing powder, odorless, with a mild taste and no noticeable bitterness. In this product, potassium is bound to gluconate ions in ionic form, dissolving rapidly and completely in water, resulting in a neutral to weakly alkaline solution with good clarity.
Particle size can be provided in standard or micronized specifications to meet the requirements of different dosage forms for uniform mixing and dissolution rate. Each batch of product undergoes multiple tests, including content uniformity, heavy metals, arsenic, lead, cadmium, chloride, sulfate, reducing sugar, and microbial limits, to ensure compliance with relevant quality standards. Complete test reports and technical documentation are provided with each shipment.

FAQ
Q: What is the difference between potassium gluconate and potassium chloride?
A: Potassium chloride contains 52% elemental potassium but can cause stomach irritation and has a salty/bitter taste. Potassium gluconate contains ~16.7% elemental potassium, is gentler on the stomach, has a neutral taste, and acts as an alkalizing agent.
Q: Is potassium gluconate powder vegan-friendly?
A: Yes. Our potassium gluconate is produced via fermentation and crystallization using non-animal sources.
Q: Do you provide samples for testing?
A: Yes. Free samples are available for legitimate businesses. You only pay for shipping.
Q: Can I use this for IV injection?
A: No. Our standard powder is for oral/food use. Please contact us for sterile, injectable-grade material.
Q: How's shipping handled?
A: We ship globally by express, air, or sea-pick the speed that matches your plan (and your patience).
