Sunflower Lecithin Liquid is a phospholipid* emulsifier suited to water in oil, or oil in water, emulsions depending on temperature and ratio. One of the characteristics of Sunflower Lecithin is its suitability to both oil and water, making it an ideal choice for a variety of emulsion applications.
Sunflower Lecithin Liquid is and emulsifier that is very well suited to use in very thin or liquid emulsions where other emulsifiers will fail.
