Extract for heating non-burning cigarette and preparation method thereof
Technical Field
The invention relates to a tobacco technology, in particular to an extract for heating non-combustible cigarettes and a preparation method thereof.
Background
The cigarette is a new type of cigarette product which is made up in recent years by heating and non-burning, and the key material of its core material mainly consists of tobacco tar, smoke-producing agent and humectant. The core material is heated at about 350 ℃, and the experience feeling similar to that of smoking a traditional cigarette can be obtained. Because the content of harmful substances in the smoke can be reduced, and open fire does not exist, the cigarette which is not combusted by heating gradually becomes the key point of the development of the tobacco industry in China.
At present, the style of the cigarette which is not burned by heating and is popular in the market is different, and the tobacco tar determines the style of the cigarette. The tobacco tar is generally formed by mixing various natural aroma extracts and tobacco extracts, wherein the natural aroma extracts are mainly extracted from natural aromatic plants, the contained aromatic substances are basically compounds with lower molecular weight, the boiling point is low, the volatility is strong, the characteristic aroma can be given to the cigarettes, and the aroma amount of the cigarettes is obviously increased; the latter contains nicotine, organic acid, tobacco phenols and lipid compounds, can increase the concentration of cigarette, the original fragrance and strength of tobacco, and provide satisfaction for smokers; the relative proportions of the two are difficult to equalize. In the formula of the heating non-combustion cigarette, when the content of the natural aroma extract is too high, the characteristic aroma of non-tobacco is obvious, the tobacco aroma is covered, and the cigarette is not stiff and can not meet the experience of smoking; when the content of the natural aroma extract is too low, the proportion of nicotine in the tobacco oil is too high, the aroma of the cigarette is not uniformly released during smoking, the strength and the irritation of the cigarette are increased, and the choking and stinging feeling is generated in the oral cavity and the throat.
In the formula of the cigarette which is not combusted by heating, the natural aroma extract with high content is kept, and the tobacco extract which is enriched with nicotine is added, so that the cigarette can give consideration to characteristic aroma and taste, and the cigarette is very important.
Disclosure of Invention
The invention aims to provide a preparation method of an extract for heating non-combustible cigarettes, aiming at the problem that the existing tobacco extract cannot meet the requirements of the heating non-combustible cigarettes on aroma and taste.
In order to achieve the purpose, the invention adopts the technical scheme that: a method for preparing a cigarette for heating non-combustion, comprising the steps of:
(1) extraction: mixing and leaching the crushed tobacco raw materials with an alcohol solution, performing solid-liquid separation after leaching to obtain a leaching solution, and filtering the leaching solution to obtain a tobacco extracting solution;
(2) concentration: concentrating the tobacco extract under reduced pressure to obtain tobacco alcohol extract, cooling and recovering alcohol;
(3) alkalizing and extracting: adding alkali liquor into the tobacco alcohol extract, uniformly stirring, and mixing with an organic solvent for extraction;
(4) refining: separating the liquid after extraction to obtain an organic phase and a water phase, concentrating the organic phase under reduced pressure to obtain an essential oil product which is an extract used for heating the non-combustible cigarettes, and condensing and recovering the organic solvent.
Further, the particle size of the crushed tobacco raw material powder in the step (1) is 20-80 meshes.
Further, the alcohol solution concentration in the step (1) is 80-95% (v/v), and the mass ratio of the pulverized tobacco raw material to the alcohol solution is 1:7-1: 9.
Further, in the step (1), the leaching temperature is 55-65 ℃, and the leaching time is 1-2 h.
Further, in the step (2), the reduced pressure concentration temperature is 60-75 ℃, the vacuum degree is 0.07-0.08Mpa, the cooling temperature of the recovered alcohol is-5-10 ℃, the solid content of the tobacco alcohol paste is 55-70%, and the solid content is the solid content of the paste liquid in percentage by mass. In the present invention,% represents a mass percentage unless otherwise specified.
Further, in the step (3), the alkali liquor is one or a mixture of more of NaOH solution, KOH solution and ammonia water, and the pH value of the alkali liquor is 12-14; the mass ratio of the tobacco alcohol extract to the alkali liquor is 1:1-3, and the stirring time is 5-10 min.
Further, in the step (3), the organic solvent is one or a mixture of more of petroleum ether, ethyl acetate, dichloromethane and n-hexane, the mass ratio of the tobacco alcohol extract to the organic solvent is 1:2-4, and the extraction time is 0.5-2 h.
Further, in the step (4), the reduced pressure concentration temperature is 20-70 ℃, the vacuum degree is 0.07-0.08Mpa, and the cooling temperature for recovering the organic solvent is-5-10 ℃.
The invention also discloses an extract for heating non-combustible cigarettes, which is prepared by adopting the method.
The invention also discloses a heat non-combustion cigarette, which comprises the extract for heating the non-combustion cigarette.
Further, the heat non-combustible cigarette comprises 0.001-0.01 wt% of the extract for heat non-combustible cigarettes. Further, the tobacco shred of the non-combustible cigarette is coated with 0.001-0.01 wt% of the extract for heating the non-combustible cigarette. The formula of the cigarette without burning by heating comprises the extract for the cigarette without burning by heating, and the dosage of the natural aroma extract can be correspondingly increased. The extract can remarkably increase the original fragrance, concentration and strength of the tobacco without affecting the fragrance amount and concentration; the cigarette has the advantages of giving consideration to characteristic aroma and taste, and having the effects of better improving the quality and experience of the cigarette which is not combusted by heating.
Compared with the prior art, the extract for heating the non-burning cigarette and the preparation method thereof have the following advantages:
(1) the nicotine content of the tobacco extract is 10-20 wt%, and is higher than that of conventional tobacco extract. The invention utilizes the solubility of nicotine to ensure that the transfer sequence of nicotine is as follows: the tobacco raw material → the tobacco extract → the tobacco alcohol extract → the alkali solution → the organic solvent, and finally most of the nicotine is enriched by concentrating the organic solvent, so that the tobacco extract with high nicotine content, excellent aroma quality and excellent aroma quantity is prepared.
(2) The process of replacing nicotine and tobacco aroma substances adopts liquid-liquid extraction, the temperature is low in the concentration stage, and the loss of aroma components of the extract is small; the tobacco extract is concentrated into alcohol paste, and then nicotine and tobacco aroma substances are transferred, so that the consumption of alkali liquor and organic solvent is low, the pollution is low, the recovery rate is high, and the method is suitable for mass production.
(3) The tobacco extract used for heating the non-combustible cigarette has higher nicotine content, can be used as a tobacco tar component, and can be added into the heating non-combustible cigarette in a small amount, so that the requirement of the cigarette for keeping the herbal fragrance and strength of the cigarette is met. Therefore, in the formula of the cigarette, the content of the natural aroma extract can be increased to a certain degree, so that the cigarette can give consideration to characteristic aroma and taste.
(4) The extract for heating the non-combustible cigarette can also be used for treating mildewed tobacco raw materials and low-grade and lower tobacco leaf raw materials.
