摘要

Lactose crystallization may occur during spray drying, depending on the operating conditions for drying, and this work reviews previous and new evidence for the effects of different additives or plasticizers on retarding or accelerating the rate of crystallization. The effects of different operating conditions during spray drying are also considered in the experimental work reviewed and performed here, which was mainly carried out with Buchi B-290 laboratory-scale spray dryers (Buchi, Flawil, Switzerland), although some work on pilot-scale equipment is also discussed. The additives used and reviewed in this article include milk proteins, such as casein and whey protein isolate, polyethylene glycol, and ascorbic acid. The key physical properties, such as glass transition temperature and drying characteristics of the material, are discussed, allowing degrees of amorphicity in spray-dried lactose to be controlled over a wide range, from close to 0% to nearly 100%.
