What is Sodium lactate CAS 312-85-6 ?

Sodium Lactate (CAS 312-85-6) is the sodium salt of lactic acid, a clear, colorless to light yellow liquid with excellent water solubility. It can be mixed with water, ethanol, glycerol, insoluble in ether. Stable at room temperature and pressure, but may react when heated or in contact with strong oxidizing agents.It is widely used in the food, pharmaceutical, cosmetic, and personal care industries due to its humectant, buffering, and preservative properties.

As a versatile ingredient, Sodium Lactate helps maintain moisture, improve skin hydration, stabilize pH, and enhance product shelf life. Our high-purity Sodium Lactate is suitable for a wide range of industrial and commercial applications.

Applications of Sodium Lactate

Sodium Lactate (CAS 312-85-6) is a versatile ingredient with wide applications across the food, pharmaceutical, cosmetic, and other industries:

Food Industry: Used as a preservative, acidity regulator, and humectant, sodium lactate inhibits microbial growth, extends shelf life, and improves flavor. In baked goods like bread and cakes, it helps retain moisture, preventing drying and hardening.
Pharmaceutical Industry: Acts as a drug excipient to adjust pH, enhance stability, and improve solubility. Sodium lactate is also a key component in Ringer’s injection for rehydration and electrolyte balance, commonly used to treat dehydration, blood loss, and shock.
Cosmetics Industry: Functions as a moisturizer and pH stabilizer in lotions, creams, and other personal care products, helping to maintain soft, smooth skin and enhancing product stability.
Other Industries: In the leather industry, it serves as a softener and moisturizer to improve leather durability and texture. In the tobacco industry, it is used to enhance moisture and flavor, improving product quality.
