Description
La présente invention concerne un produit à fumer (cigares ou cigarettes) contenant au moins un matériau à fumer choisi parmi le tabac naturel, le tabac reconstitué, les substituts du tabac qui comprennent les produits non tabac, naturels ou synthétiques proposés pour remplacer totalement ou partiellement le tabac dans un produit à fumer.The present invention relates to a smoking product (cigars or cigarettes) containing at least one material to smoking chosen from natural tobacco, reconstituted tobacco, tobacco substitutes which include non-tobacco, natural or synthetic products offered to completely or partially replace tobacco in a smoking product.
L'invention vise un tel produit qui génère, pendant sa consommation, un courant principal avec de faibles quantités de constituants indésirables et dont la saveur et l'arôme soient améliorés, et une fumée secondaire ayant un arôme plaisant.The invention relates to such a product which generates, during its consumption, a main current with low quantities of undesirable constituents and whose flavor and the aroma are improved, and secondhand smoke having a pleasant aroma.
On a déjà proposé d'incorporer des substances, et notamment des additifs organiques aux produits à fumer mais le haut degré de volatilité et la facilité de sublimation de ces substances dans les produits à fumer entraÃnent des difficultés dues aux pertes de substances pendant la fabrication et le stockage.It has already been proposed to incorporate substances, and including organic additives to smoking products but the high degree of volatility and the ease of sublimation of these substances in smoking products cause difficulties due to loss of substances during manufacturing and storage.
L'invention a cherché à obtenir que ce soit l'enveloppe du produit qui émette une ou plusieurs substances aromatiques lors du fumage qui améliorent la qualité organoleptique de la fumée secondaire et de la fumée primaire, par ajout d'une note complémentaire à celles produites par la combustion du matériau ou par masquage de l'effet de celle-ci.The invention sought to obtain that it be the envelope of the product that emits one or more substances aromatic during smoking which improve the quality organoleptic of secondhand smoke and smoke primary, by adding a note complementary to those produced by burning the material or by masking of its effect.
Pour atteindre cet objectif l'invention propose un produit dans lequel ont été ajoutés à son enveloppe un mélange d'un sucre réducteur, non volatil à température ambiante et un composé azoté choisi parmi les sels d'ammonium et les acides amines, et apte à se décomposer par pyrolyse en libérant de l'amoniac.To achieve this objective, the invention proposes a product in which have been added to its envelope a mixture of a reducing sugar, non-volatile at temperature ambient and a nitrogen compound chosen from the salts ammonium and amino acids, and able to decompose by pyrolysis, releasing ammonia.
Parmi les sucres réducteurs on citera le glucose, le fructose et les hydrolysats d'amidon parmi les sels d'ammonium, les phosphates, carbonates, citrates et acétates d'ammonium et, parmi les acides aminés, la proline, l'asparagine, la glutamine et la phénylalanine.Among the reducing sugars, glucose, fructose and starch hydrolysates among the salts ammonium, phosphates, carbonates, citrates and ammonium acetates and, among the amino acids, proline, asparagine, glutamine and phenylalanine.
Les composés seront mélangés dans des proportions de préférence équimoléculaires, de façon à obtenir pendant la combustion du produit à fumer, leur combinaison qui conduit à la formation d'hétérocycles azotés et notamment des pyrazines.The compounds will be mixed in proportions of preferably equimolecular, so as to obtain during the combustion of the smoking product, their combination which leads to the formation of nitrogen heterocycles and including pyrazines.
Ce mélange de composés peut être ajouté à l'enveloppe par différents moyens connus qui peuvent être cumulés pour obtenir l'effet souhaité.This mixture of compounds can be added to the envelope by various known means which can be combined to achieve the desired effect.
Par exemple, on peut l'introduire en "size press" sous forme d'une solution ou une suspension avec d'autres additifs. La quantité maximum est fonction de la charge admissible qui permet de maintenir la structure du papier. Il est possible d'ajouter de 0,5 à 10 % de composés par rapport à la matière sèche. De préférence on ajoute de 0,5 à 4 %.For example, we can introduce it in "size press" under form of a solution or suspension with others additives. The maximum quantity depends on the load allowable which maintains the structure of the paper. It is possible to add from 0.5 to 10% of compounds based on dry matter. Preferably 0.5 to 4% is added.
On peut aussi l'ajouter comme ingrédient de la composition du papier ou comme produit de surface par enduction, ou encore directement sur l'enveloppe sur la confectionneuse de cigares ou de cigarettes sous forme d'une solution ou d'une suspension. It can also be added as an ingredient in composition of paper or as a surface product by coating, or directly on the envelope on the cigars or cigarettes maker in the form of a solution or suspension.
On peut encore l'incorporer dans la formulation de la colle de couture de l'enveloppe.It can also be incorporated into the formulation of the envelope seam glue.
Ci-après sont donnés quelques exemples de mélanges selon l'invention et leur application à l'enveloppe ou papier de l'enveloppe du produit.Below are some examples of mixtures according to the invention and their application to the envelope or paper of the product envelope.
On prépare une solution de 1,8 g de glucose et de 1,2 g de sesquicarbonate d'ammonium (NH4)2CO3, NH4HCO3, H2O dans 100 g d'eau froide (de préférence à température inférieure à 15 degrés C pour ne pas décomposer le sesquicarbonate d'ammonium). On ajoute 1,45 g de citrate d'ammonium et 1,15 g de citrate de potassium. On pourrait utiliser d'autres sels habituellement ajoutés au papier pour modifier sa combustion.A solution of 1.8 g of glucose and 1.2 g of ammonium sesquicarbonate (NH 4 ) 2 CO 3 , NH 4 HCO 3 , H 2 O is prepared in 100 g of cold water (preferably at temperature below 15 degrees C so as not to decompose ammonium sesquicarbonate). 1.45 g of ammonium citrate and 1.15 g of potassium citrate are added. Other salts usually added to paper could be used to modify its combustion.
On applique cette solution sur une machine à papier classique en size press sur une matrice du papier référence VGB 40 C de la société Lana et on pilote la machine de façon à obtenir un dépôt de matière active carbonylée et azotée de l'ordre de 3 % par rapport au poids sec de papier.We apply this solution on a paper machine classic in size press on a paper matrix reference VGB 40 C from the company Lana and we are piloting the machine so as to obtain a deposit of active material carbonylated and nitrogenous in the order of 3% compared to dry weight of paper.
La même expérience est menée à partir d'une solution de 1,8 g d'hydrolysat d'amidon vendu par la société Roquette sous la marque FLOLYS et d'un mélange d'acides aminés comprenant 0,6 g de proline, 0,3 g d'asparagine, 0,2 g de glutamine et 0,1 g de phénylalanine pour 100 g d'eau. On ajoute la même quantité d'additifs modificateurs de combustion que dans l'exemple précédent. The same experiment is carried out using a solution of 1.8 g of starch hydrolyzate sold by the company Rocket under the brand FLOLYS and a mixture of acids amines comprising 0.6 g of proline, 0.3 g of asparagine, 0.2 g of glutamine and 0.1 g of phenylalanine per 100 g of water. Add the same amount of additives combustion modifiers as in the example previous.
Le papier est fabriqué dans des conditions connues de façon à appliquer le même taux que précédemment.The paper is produced under known conditions of so as to apply the same rate as before.
On réalise dans des conditions identiques un papier à partir d'une solution de 2,46 g de FLOLYS d'un mélange de 0,8 g de phosphate monoammonique et de 0,2 g de phosphate diammonique afin d'obtenir une solution inodore. Cette solution est également préparée en maintenant la température à une valeur inférieure à 15 degrés C pour éviter le dégazage d'ammoniac et comprend également les mêmes quantités d'additifs modificateurs de combustion.A paper is produced under identical conditions. from a solution of 2.46 g of FLOLYS of a mixture 0.8 g of monoammonium phosphate and 0.2 g of diammonium phosphate in order to obtain a solution odorless. This solution is also prepared in now the temperature below 15 degrees C to avoid degassing of ammonia and includes also the same amounts of modifier additives combustion.
L'application sur machine à papier se fait au même taux que précédemment.Application on paper machine is done at the same rate than previously.
Dans des conditions semblables à celles des exemples précédents, on fabrique un papier à partir d'une solution de 1,8 g de glucose et de 3 g de LUCULLUS standard de la société Orsan (base protéique obtenue par fermentation).Under conditions similar to those of the examples previous, we make a paper from a 1.8 g glucose and 3 g LUCULLUS solution standard of the company Orsan (protein base obtained by fermentation).
On confectionne avec les papiers obtenus selon les exemples 1 à 4 des cigarettes sans filtre de longueur 70 mm et de diamètre 7,9 mpm avec un mélange commercial de tabacs pour cigarettes brunes comprenant du tabac brun, du tabac d'orient, des côtes brunes et du TR.We make with the papers obtained according to examples 1 to 4 of cigarettes without filter of length 70 mm and diameter 7.9 mpm with a commercial mixture of tobacco for brown cigarettes including brown tobacco, oriental tobacco, brown ribs and TR.
Ces cigarettes, fabriquées respectivement selon les exemples 1 à 4, sont dégustées par un panel d'experts en comparaison avec un lot fabriqué à partir du même mélange enveloppé dans un papier semblable mais ne comprenant pas d'additif selon l'invention.These cigarettes, produced respectively according to examples 1 to 4, are tasted by a panel of experts in comparison with a batch made from the same mixture wrapped in similar paper but does not comprising no additive according to the invention.
Il a été trouvé que la fumée des cigarettes enveloppées de papiers selon l'invention sont différentes du témoin. D'une façon générale, on constate que l'odeur de brune est atténuée, un adoucissement de la fumée, un gommage des flaveurs fermentées et torréfiées, une diminution de l'amertume et de l'âcreté. La fumée dégage une odeur boisée, croûte de pain, un arôme étranger et nouveau se mariant bien à la flaveur du tabac.It was found that smoke from wrapped cigarettes of papers according to the invention are different from the witness. Generally, we notice that the smell of brown is softened, smoke softening, exfoliation fermented and roasted flavors, a decrease in bitterness and bitterness. Smoke has an odor woody, crust of bread, a foreign and new aroma blending well with the flavor of tobacco.
