Description

Composite tobacco essence, preparation method and application thereof

Technical Field

The invention belongs to the technical field of application of composite tobacco essence in the field of cigarettes, and particularly relates to composite tobacco essence, a preparation method of the composite tobacco essence and application of the composite tobacco essence in cigarettes.

Background

Tobacco products usually adopt a flavoring method to achieve the purposes of improving the aroma characteristics of cigarettes, covering up miscellaneous flavors and endowing cigarettes with unique styles, thereby becoming an indispensable part in the tobacco industry. The cigarette flavor has the advantages that the stability and the persistence of the cigarette flavor are the same when a formula is continuously improved and novel cigarette flavor is developed, and the cigarette flavor is the focus of attention of scientific research personnel in scientific research institutions and enterprises. Most of the fragrant raw materials have low boiling points and are extremely easy to volatilize, the loss is serious in the long-term storage process, and because the cigarettes belong to the use characteristics of high-temperature smoking, the hot smoke can release the spices in the cigarettes in advance, so that the phenomena of thick fragrance in the early stage and slight fragrance release in the later stage are caused, and the product consumption quality is reduced.

The microcapsule technology is an important means for improving the stability of the essence, and a natural or synthetic high molecular compound is adopted to form a continuous film (wall or external phase) to completely coat the fragrant raw material (core material or internal phase) to be protected, so that the volatilization and dissipation of the fragrant components can be effectively prevented, meanwhile, the contact with the outside is isolated, the deterioration caused by chemical change is slowed down, and the stability of the fragrance material is improved. However, in the process of smoking cigarettes, the microcapsule-embedded essence product cannot prevent the early release of the aroma components due to the high smoke temperature, and the problem of aroma release uniformity cannot be solved.

Disclosure of Invention

The invention aims to overcome the defects that the loss of spice substances is serious in the high-temperature processing process, so that the fragrance is not uniformly released, even the fragrance is lost due to volatilization during storage, or the chemical properties are unstable and are easily oxidized and deteriorated.

The invention relates to a composite essence for cigarettes, which comprises a wall material, a core material and an emulsifier;

the wall material is a mixture of sodium alginate and guar gum; the core material is a mixture of neohesperidin dihydrochalcone, leaf alcohol and leaf alcohol glucoside; the emulsifier is propylene glycol fatty acid ester.

In a preferred embodiment of the first aspect of the present invention, the sodium alginate accounts for 40wt% to 50 wt% of the wall material, and the guar gum accounts for 50 wt% to 60 wt% of the wall material;

1-3 parts of neohesperidin dihydrochalcone, 5-15 parts of leaf alcohol and 2-4 parts of leaf alcohol glucoside;

the weight ratio of the wall material to the core material is 1: 1-1: 1.5.

The second aspect of the invention relates to a preparation method of the composite essence for cigarettes, which comprises the following steps:

(1) weighing the wall material, the core material and the emulsifier in proportion, and mixing to obtain a mixture; the amount of the emulsifier accounts for 1.0-2.0 wt% of the total weight of the wall material and the core material;

(2) adding water into the mixture obtained in the step (1) and stirring to prepare 30-40 wt% of water dispersion;

(3) homogenizing the aqueous dispersion obtained in the step (2) at 60-70 ℃ and 25-35 MPa to obtain a uniform aqueous dispersion;

(4) and (4) spray-drying the uniform aqueous dispersion obtained in the step (3) to obtain the composite essence for cigarettes. Preferably, the inlet air temperature of the spray drying is 150-250 ℃, and the outlet temperature is 60-90 DEG C

The third aspect of the invention relates to the application of the composite essence for cigarettes in flavoring.

The fourth aspect of the invention relates to the application of the composite cigarette essence in inhibiting the pungency of smoke and maintaining the stability, durability and/or uniform and consistent aroma release with time of the cigarette aroma.

The invention has the beneficial effects that:

1. the stable tobacco essence produced by the invention has lasting fragrance in the long-term storage process of cigarettes, no perceptible change of the quality of the fragrance and good stability. During the burning and smoking process, the fragrance is always uniform and stable and the fragrance is released uniformly from the beginning to the end. The aroma of the cigarettes added with the common essence is volatilized and lost in the storage process, the quality of the aroma is deteriorated, and the aroma is quickly volatilized due to high smoke temperature in the burning and smoking process to form the phenomena of rich front aroma and weak back aroma.

2. The neohesperidin dihydrochalcone added in the invention is a functional sweetener with bitterness inhibition and flavor improvement, and when the neohesperidin dihydrochalcone is used in cigarettes, the pungent taste of smoke can be inhibited, the sweet bottom taste is increased, and the smoke quality is improved.

3. The added leaf alcohol has strong green fragrance of fresh grass leaves, green fragrance of fresh tea leaves and apple, strong diffusion, special herbal fragrance and leaf odor after dilution, mild flavor, and fresh top aroma, and is mainly used as a front flavoring agent of various flower-fragrance type tobaccos to provide fresh top aroma.

4. The invention adopts the compound use of the neohesperidin dihydrochalcone, the leaf alcohol and the leaf alcohol glucoside, adopts the microcapsule embedding as the stable flavor precursor compound stabilization technology, is added into the cigarette tobacco, can inhibit the spicy flavor of the smoke during burning and smoking, has stable flavor after long-term storage, and has uniform flavor release during burning and smoking. The invention has important significance for improving the quality of cigarettes and establishing high-quality brands.

Detailed Description

When the composite tobacco essence is added into cigarette tobacco, compared with the cigarette added with common tobacco essence, 6 professionals are selected for smoking evaluation, the evaluation result is shown in table 2, and the evaluation standard is shown in table 1.

TABLE 1 Scoring index and scoring Standard

TABLE 2 scoring results

As can be seen from Table 2, compared with the control, the composite tobacco essence has the advantages of high aroma value, sufficient aroma amount, pure aroma, spicy taste inhibition and sweet rose aroma when being added into the cut tobacco of the cigarette. In the smoking process, the fragrance is lasting and uniform from smoking by lighting the cigarette to burning off at last, each score is superior to that of a control group, and unexpected effects are achieved.

The composite cigarette essence has stable and lasting fragrance in the long-term storage process of cigarettes, and the cigarettes stored for a long time have uniform and stable fragrance and uniform fragrance release from beginning to end in the burning and smoking process. The fragrance of the common cigarette essence is volatilized and lost in the storage process of the cigarette, the phenomena of thick front fragrance and thin back fragrance are formed in the burning and smoking process, and the phenomena of thick front fragrance and thin back fragrance also exist in the burning and smoking process due to high smoke temperature.

The composite essence for tobacco can ensure that the proportion of the composite essence is uniform, and the stability of the essence is improved to a certain extent. The aroma quality of the cigarette is obviously improved. The invention has important significance for improving the quality of cigarettes and promoting the development of the tobacco industry.
