Abstract

The Fo Jini hypotype tobacco of baking is contacted with gaseous ammonia or aqueous ammonia solution, in closed system, be heated between 80 ℃ to 150 ℃.The above-mentioned tobacco flavor of result has been enhanced, thereby it can replace burley in commercial cigarette composition.

Description

Improve the method for the flavor characteristics of tobacco
The present invention relates to change tobacco, especially the method for the Fo Jini hypotype tobacco flavor road feature of baking.In addition, not the invention still further relates to and in tobacco, apply additive component, and improve the smoke perfume feature of tobacco.This method uses ammonia to make basic chemical agent.
Have it long ago with the ammonia treatment tobacco, mainly explain and remove nicotine with it.The method of removing nicotine had many introductions.Representative is this U.S. 1 that reaches terraced lattice (Startig), 640, the U.S. the 1st of No. 298 patents, Fei Demen (Federmann), 719, No. 291 patent, the rich U.S. the 2nd, 136, No. 485 patents, Mikes that block people such as (BerKa) examine the U.S. the 2nd according to (McCoy), No. 2227863 patent of the U.S. of 162, No. 738 patents, Luo Desi (Rhodes) and Bu Luo ask the method for introducing in No. 3742962 patent of the U.S. of special (Brochct).It is very little wherein to heat up in some method, and will rise to 100 ℃ at least in some other method, but which kind of method no matter has all been removed some composition from tobacco, be apparent that nicotine.And whom generally speaking never has did do not make ammonia dilution (as being diluted) or be removed the trial of preserving ammonia under the condition of (as by air and air-flow cleaning) by air-flow.
Armstrong people such as (Arms trohg) has introduced the method for ammonia as the tobacco swelling agent in No. 3771533 patent of the U.S..This method is with liquid state or gaseous ammonia dipping tobacco, with impregnated tobacco Fast Heating under the condition of not sealing (in open containers), produces expanded along with the release of ammonia then.The reason that needs expanding tobacco is well-known.
De Siseke (Deszycr) has introduced use carboxylic acids ammonia salt (a kind of artificial alkali that has added aqua ammonia) and has handled the thick slurry of tobacco ingredient therefrom to discharge the method for pectin in No. 3760815, United States Patent (USP), then, the adhesive that restores as reconstituted tobacoo with pectin again.In taking off the pectin step, can heat thick slurry.With the thin slice drying that is shaped, make its deamination and slough unnecessary moisture content then.
In all similar above-mentioned, previously disclosed materials, or be that tobacco and ammonia do not heat when keeping in touch, or be exactly under the situation that ammonia is rapidly disappeared or diluted greatly, to heat tobacco by water or gas (air, air-flow).
Thereby the present invention relates to a kind ofly not add spices itself and adopt a kind of new mode to handle the method that tobacco changes the smoke perfume characteristic of tobacco or reorganization tobacco.This processing method be under 80 ℃ to 150 ℃ temperature with flue-cured tobacco, especially Fo Jini hypotype tobacco was heated 1/2 to 24 hour with ammonia.Processing is preferably in the closed system, so that do not lose volatile substance and moisture such as nicotine and some fragrance component, processing so again needn't get damp again.Fo Jiniya tobacco with such process for producing is made prescription, contains the quality of the tobacco of burley tobaccos in all very approximate prescription of its sucking quality in many aspects.
Definition:
Be used for the meaning that the following term of this specification has aftermentioned to show.
Filling power
Under given moisture content, tobacco forms the ability of a solid tobacco shred.High filling power is that expression uses the tobacco lighter than low filling power tobacco just can produce the cigarette of a given contour and length.The hardness that strengthens tobacco can increase filling power, and also available expanding tobacco increases filling power.
Cylinder volume (CV)
The pipe tobacco of given weight shared volume under certain pressure.The CV value is represented with the form of C.C/10 gram.The method of measuring the CV value is that heavy 10,000 smokable fillers that restrain are placed in the cylinder of diameter 3.358Cm, shakes for 30 seconds on " Syntron " oscillator, restrains piston compression 5 minutes with 1875 of diameter 3.33Cm.Resulting packing volume promptly is the cylinder volume.This test needs to carry out under 23.9 ℃, the standard environment condition of 60% relative temperature (RH).High cylinder volume is represented high filling power.
Baking oven volatilization content (OV)
The unit of expression smokable filler moisture content.The method of measuring moisture content in the smokable filler is: at first weighing smokable filler sample was placed in 100 ℃ the air circulation baking oven three hours then, weighed subsequently again.Institute's weight loss accounts for the percentage of initial weight, comprises the baking oven volatile substance in the hydraulic pressure exactly." but OV " can use with the moisture content mutual alternative, and " OV " can be considered to be equal to moisture content, because under experimental condition, remove moisture content, volatile substance only accounts for about 1% of smokable filler weight.
Balance baking oven volatile content (OVeq)
The OV value that is smokable filler balance was measured after 18 hours under 23.9 ℃ and 60% relative humidity condition.
Burley tobaccos cut into pipe tobacco, make cigarette again through modulation, and most of smokers feel to sting larynx and can't accept.Yet burley has been requisite composition in many prescriptions in the cigarette industry.An amount of use can increase extraordinary fragrance to cigarette, and increases satisfied effect for total flue gas, and these are to obtain from other compositions commonly used (Fo Jini hypotype tobacco and east tobacco) of tobacco blend.Regrettably in the flue gas that the burley filler generates disproportionate with it a large amount of nitrogen oxide type material is arranged, these compositions are one of undesirable compositions of people.If with the tobacco leaf flushing, remove nitrate, can weaken this defective in a way.But owing to such processing can make tobacco leaf off-flavor and economic dispatch reason, this method awaits perfect.
The Fo Jini hypotype tobacco of baking can make its main flume taste become after the heat treated under the participation at ammonia in the container of sealing to exactly like burley, and does not increase the nitrogen oxide type material thereupon, and this discovery is that people are unexpected.Can participate in handling with liquid ammonia or concentrated aqueous ammonia solvent (28%), but with the ammonia that uses gaseous form for well.The container of containing tobacco can partly vacuumize earlier, also can all vacuumize, and what question of substance this is not.Ammonia is injected in the container, also can handle together with tobacco before injecting container.The steam of ammonia is able to contact with tobacco in heat treated subsequently like this.Tobacco in heating container or the heating container then, temperature will be elevated to 80 ℃ to 150 ℃.Preferably kept this temperature 30 minutes to 24 hours.Between soak, it is airtight that container preferably keeps, but if necessary, can regulate pressure relieving valve as required pressure is remained on the predetermined level.
The OV value of tobacco is unessential before above-mentioned processing.At room temperature being full of in the tobacco of poised state in the air of moisture content contained about 3% to 20% OV value all can.
Apparent is closed system owing to what adopt, and initial wet content is very high, and as suction burning smoke grass product formula material the time, the product after the processing need be dried to common OV standard (cigarette material humidity); In other cases, when adopting pressure reducing mode or initial temperature content very low, product may need to ease back and humidification more again.Product after the processing will place ventilated environment usually, so that unnecessary ammonia is discharged.This placement is enough to make the moisture content of product to reach weighing apparatus attitude standard, thereby can carry out the processing of smoking product.
Reaching the needed ammonia concentration of the object of the invention slightly changes with the variation of other parameters (humidity and processing time are used closed system or control pressurer system or the like suchlike parameter).The concentration measurable parameter of handy system is represented.Such as: vapor partial pressure power before the heating, tobacco is with the relative weight (in butt) of injecting ammonia or in the concentration of injecting the stage aqueous ammonia, its steam is used and contacted with tobacco.Best, ammonia concentration roughly be tobacco weight 3% or in 300 gram DBC Fo Jini hypotype tobaccos, add 45 milliliters NH 4The H of OH/SO milliliter 2O.
Embodiment 1
3 parts of each 300 grams are cut into silk, and the Fo Jini hypotype tobacco (not wrapping paper) of baking is with aqueous ammonia dipping, are placed in the independent drier six days again.Ammonia solution can prepare with concentrated aqueous ammonia (28%) and water, and its ratio can be 30 milliliters: 30 milliliters, and 45 milliliters: 30 milliliters, 60 milliliters: 30 milliliters.Some with every batch of tobacco is placed in the jar of sealing then, and heating is 24 hours in 93 ℃ baking oven.Calculating before OV value and the CV value (table 1), filler that heated and the filler that do not heat all will be under 24 ℃ of temperature and 60% relative humidity standard conditions balance.Use various products and contrast product (contrast product comprises nonheat-treated Fo Jiniya tobacco material and burley tobaccos forage) all to make cigarette then.Smoking expert's conclusion is the characteristics that still have many Fo Jini hypotype tobaccos with the sample of ammonia treatment in 30: 30 heating; With the sample fragrance of 45: 30 ammonia place opinions very near burley tobaccos; Sample ammonia flavor with ammonia treatment in 60: 30 is too strong.
