Abstract: A solid milk may include 0.5 wt % to 4 wt % of free fat, wherein a total fat content, including the free fat, is 5 wt % or higher. The solid milk may have a porosity of 30% to 50% and a solubility of 5 seconds to 180 seconds, where the solubility is defined as a time required to dissolve the solid milk completely when the solid milk is placed in 100 mL of water at 50° C. and shaken at a rate of 1.5 cycles/sec and an amplitude of 30 cm. The solid milk may have a hardness of 30 N to 300 N, where the hardness is defined as a force causing fracture when a load is applied in a direction in which a surface area of a fracture surface of a sample becomes minimal.

Abstract: A solid milk combining sufficient strength with sufficient solubility can be obtained basically by compacting and molding only powdered milk as an ingredient under a condition where porosity and free fat content thereof are controlled within fixed ranges and then humidifying and drying to produce a solid milk with a porosity of 30% to 50%. The solid milk has a moisture content of 1 wt % to 4 wt %.

Abstract: The object of the present invention is to provide solid milk having suitable solubility and strength and a method for manufacturing such solid milk. The present invention is based on the knowledge that solid milk combining sufficient strength with sufficient solubility can be obtained basically by compacting and molding only powdered milk as an ingredient under a condition where porosity and free fat content thereof are controlled within fixed ranges and then humidifying and drying. The above-described object can be attained with solid milk with a porosity of 30% to 50% and a method for manufacturing solid milk, comprising a compacting process for compacting powdered milk and obtaining a solid compacted body of powdered milk, a humidifying process for wetting the compacted body of powdered milk obtained in the compacting process, and a drying process for drying the compacted body of powdered milk humidified in the humidification process.

Abstract: A method for producing a sintered magnet comprising steps of; wet-pulverizing a magnetic powder under the presence of a surface active agent, drying said wet-pulverized magnetic powder 20 for obtaining magnetic powder to which said surface active agent is adhered, heating and kneading said dried magnetic powder 20 with binder resin to form pellet, melting said pellet and injecting said pellet in a mold to which magnetic field is applied, to form a preform body, and firing said preform body.
