Thermolec® WFC Lecithin

ADM (Archer Daniels Midland) makes their documentation available in the regions indicated below:

Thermolec® WFC Lecithin is a surface-active agent with unique properties for both water- and oil-based application. Thermolec® WFC Lecithin can modify the boundary layers between many types of substances. When used between solid phases it acts as a lubricant or release agent. In the presence of two immiscible liquid phases, Thermolec® WFC Lecithin reduces the surface tension and acts as an emulsifier. In addition, these lecithins are resistant to darkening due to heat.

As a food emulsifier, this product is used in the manufacture of margarine, vegetable and dairy based milk replacers including infant formula, and ready to use frosting. This product is the active ingredient in many food grade release agents such as pan oils, griddle greases, and aerosol coatings. Lecithin is also used to alter viscosity in chocolate products and compound coatings. In bread baking applications, lecithin acts to improve dough machinability, volume, symmetry and shelf life. In crackers, cookies, cakes and pies lecithin improves shortening dispersion and acts as a release agent.
