A method for preparing Cordyceps militaris nano-composite powder with protein-polysaccharide complex coacervation stability. The method includes sorting, drying, crushing suspending Cordyceps militaris ultrafine powder, emulsifying primarily, re-emulsifying, adjusting pH value and conducting spray drying. The emulsion stability after primary emulsification is not high, so re-emulsification technology is increased, and lactalbumin with higher emulsifying property and higher nutritional value are adopted as enhanced emulsifier, thus enhancing stability of an emulsifying system. The network envelopment stability of polysaccharide colloidal xanthan gum or kudzu powder is used to consolidate the stability of the emulsifying system, and a Pickering emulsifying system with multilayer of solid particle stability is constructed. The system has high stability and can effectively and organically combine fully pulverized components of Cordyceps militaris into microcapsule composite powder, and the powder has good dispersity and has higher degree of homogenization after being dissolved in the water.

An electrostatic spray nozzle assembly is described that includes an induction ring and a fluid tip. The induction ring generates an electrical field for inducing an electrical charge on droplets of a feedstock liquid from the fluid tip that pass through an opening of the induction ring. The induction ring is electrically coupled to an electrical induction field source via a first conductive path provided by conductive surfaces of: a nozzle head holding the induction ring, and a purge gas tube holding the nozzle head. Feedstock flowing through the fluid tip is electrically coupled to a charge carrier source via a second conductive path provided by at least a conductive surface of a fluid tube coupled to the fluid tip. The first conductive path and the second conductive path are electrically isolated by an insulating barrier.
