What is Hydroxylated Soy Lecithin Liquid (LeciOIL™602)?

LeciOIL™602 is a chemically modified soy lecithin liquid produced through a hydroxylation process that significantly improves its hydrophilic properties and performance in water-based systems.

Compared with conventional soy lecithin, hydroxylated lecithin exhibits enhanced water dispersibility, stronger adsorption on metal surfaces, and improved lubricating performance. It forms a protective lubricating film that reduces friction, lowers torque, and minimizes metal wear under demanding operating conditions.

LeciOIL™602 is widely used in water-based drilling fluids, agricultural formulations, metalworking fluids, industrial lubricants, coatings, and specialty chemical applications where lubrication, emulsification, and surface protection are critical.

Its high HLB value of 7–10 makes it particularly suitable for oil-in-water systems and formulations requiring improved compatibility with aqueous environments.
