Lysolecithin Sunflower Emulsifier from United States
Lysolecithin sunflower emulsifier is a hydrolyzed phosphoaminolipid derived from sunflower lecithin, used to reduce viscosity in food products such as chocolate and sauces. It falls under tariff item 2923.20.00 as an 'other phosphoaminolipid,' whether or not chemically defined, since hydrolysis introduces impurities but retains the phosphoaminolipid structure.
