What is lecithin liquid from soybean used for?
Soybean lecithin is commonly used as an emulsifier in food products (e.g., chocolate, margarine, baked goods), as well as in pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, and industrial applications like lubricants and detergents.
What is the chemical formula and molecular weight of soybean lecithin?
Soybean lecithin is a mixture of phospholipids (primarily phosphatidylcholine, phosphatidylethanolamine, and phosphatidylinositol) and does not have a single fixed formula or molecular weight, typically ranging between **750–1,000 g/mol** depending on composition.
How should soybean lecithin liquid be stored?
Store at ambient temperature in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and moisture. Ensure containers are tightly sealed to prevent oxidation.
What grades or purity levels of soybean lecithin are available?
Molekula supplies **food-grade (AZ)** soybean lecithin, meeting regulatory standards for edible applications (e.g., FDA, EU food safety directives). Industrial grades may also be available upon request.
Can Molekula supply soybean lecithin in bulk quantities?
Yes, we offer bulk packaging options for soybean lecithin, including drums (typically 200 kg) and IBC totes, tailored to your production needs—contact our sales team for custom solutions.
What documentation comes with a soybean lecithin order?
Each order includes a **Certificate of Analysis (CoA)**, **Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS)**, and **batch-specific documentation** confirming food-grade compliance (e.g., AZ certification). Additional regulatory certificates (e.g., Kosher, Halal) may be provided if specified.
