Soybean Lecithin Manufacturer Soy Hydrogenated Lecithin With Good Quality
Product Description
What is Lecithin?
Lecithin is an important ingredient contained in soybeans and is mainly composed of a mixture of fats containing chlorine and phosphorus. In the 1930s, lecithin was discovered in soybean oil processing and became a by-product. Soybeans contain about 1.2% to 3.2% phospholipids, which include important components of biological membranes, such as phosphatidylinositol (PI), phosphatidylcholine (PC), phosphatidylethanolamine (PE) and several other esters species, and very small amounts of other substances. Phosphatidylcholine is a form of lecithin composed of phosphatidic acid and choline. Lecithin contains a variety of fatty acids, such as palmitic acid, stearic acid, linoleic acid and oleic acid.

Physicochemical properties and characteristics
Soy lecithin has a strong emulsification, lecithin contains a lot of unsaturated fatty acids, easy to be affected by light, air and temperature deterioration, resulting in color from white to yellow, and finally turned brown, soy lecithin can form liquid crystal when heated and damp.
Lecithin two characteristics
It is not resistant to high temperature, the temperature is above 50°C, and the activity will gradually destroy and disappear within a certain time. Therefore, taking lecithin should be taken with warm water.
The higher the purity, the easier it is to absorb.
Application in food industry
1. antioxidant
Because soybean lecithin can improve the decomposition activity of peroxide and hydrogen peroxide in oil, its antioxidant effect is widely used in the production of oil.
2.Emulsifier
Soy lecithin can be used in W/O emulsions. Because it is more sensitive to the ionic environment, it is generally combined with other emulsifiers and stabilizers to emulsify.
3. Blowing agent
Soybean lecithin is widely used in fried food as blowing agent. It not only has a longer foaming ability, but also can prevent food from sticking and coking.
4.Growth accelerator
In the production of fermented food, soy lecithin can improve the fermentation speed. Mainly because it can significantly improve the activity of yeast and lactococcus.
Soy lecithin is a commonly used natural emulsifier and is very healthy for the human body. Based on the nutritional composition of phospholipids and the importance of life activities, China has approved the refined lecithin of higher purity to be included in health food, lecithin in the purification of blood vessels, adjust the hemorrheology, reduce serum cholesterol, maintain the nutritional function of the brain have certain effects.
With the deepening of lecithin research and the improvement of people's living standard, soybean lecithin will be paid more and more attention and applied.
Soybean lecithin is a very good natural emulsifier and surfactant, non-toxic, non-irritating, easy to degrade, and has a variety of effects, is widely used in food, medicine, cosmetics, feed processing.
The wide application of lecithin has led to the rapid development of lecithin production enterprises.
