Definition:  Substance obtained from soya seeds after the extraction of oil and used as a binder in coating colour formulations, which has properties similar to those of casein and allows to obtain coating colours with different viscosity.
Definition source:  Brewer (2003)
Context:  Another similarity between soya protein and casein is the viscosity rise (shock) when a solution is added to a pigment slurry. Again, the remedy is to use some alkali in the pigment slurry. Because they are so similar, many mills claim that they are interchangeable but soya protein has never been commonly used in the United Kingdom.
