The Application of Phospholipids in Instant Formula Milk Powder
Jul 30,2025
Dairy companies often use agglomeration processing to produce milk powder, forming coarse particles that are easy to dissolve and consume. However, since the surfaces of milk powder particles are mostly covered by fat, creating a hydrophobic nature, agglomeration processing alone cannot achieve good solubility. By using phospholipids to modify milk powder particles, the water-repellent effect can be removed, resulting in a wettable surface that improves the wettability and dispersibility of the final product. Additionally, incorporating phospholipids into milk powder can enhance the stability of proteins. There are several methods for adding phospholipids to milk powder:
(1) Fluidized bed drying method
Dissolve phospholipids in edible oil or cream, or disperse them in water to prepare a phospholipid solution with a concentration of 10%-15%. Then spray the phospholipid solution onto the milk powder particles, which will be coated with a thin layer of phospholipids. The phospholipid dosage is approximately 0.5%-1.0% of the total product weight.
(2) Spray drying method
Phospholipids are added to milk slurry, which is then subjected to spray drying. After this process, the phospholipids bind to the milk powder particles. The phospholipid content is 1%-2% of the dry weight of the milk powder.
(3) Dry mixing method
Mix the phospholipids with the milk powder raw material in a dry state at 60-65°C, continuously stirring until the phospholipids are uniformly dispersed on the surface of the milk powder particles. The phospholipid content is 1%-1.5% of the final product weight.
