JP5597854B2 - Hiba Incense Incense - Google Patents

Description

  The present invention relates to an incense stick used in France, or an incense stick used in a room in daily life.

In general, incense sticks are used when they are served in front of graves or Buddhist altars, when they enjoy scents in daily life, or when scents are desired for deodorizing purposes. The fragrance is important for incense sticks. For this reason, it has been made by using powdered incense trees such as sandalwood, mandala and agarwood as raw materials and kneading them together with tab powder and other ingredients. At present, in addition to the fragrance of incense trees, various incense sticks such as flowers are produced. Essential oils, fragrances, synthetic chemicals, etc. are used as incense in these incense sticks.

  Hiba is a conifer that belongs to the Cypress family, and is a generic name for Hinoki Asunaro, Ate, Asunaro. There are two kinds of scents of hiba, derived from hiba trees and leaves. The scent of hiba in the present invention refers to scents derived from trees. The scent of hiba is due to the essential oil component of hiba that is inherent in the tree, and this essential oil is generally referred to as hiba oil. Hiba oil contains dozens of kinds of components, and compound Tyopsen and some other compound components having other scents are combined to form a scent of hiba.

  The scent of hiba is useful because it shows a tranquilizing effect and a relaxing effect. Various products are added to the scent of scented fragrance, bathing agent, soap, fan, etc. .

  As for the incense that has the scent of hiba, the scent component of hiba has high volatility, and even if hiba oil is added to the incense, the scent disappears quickly, or when adsorbed on activated carbon, etc. In this case, the Hiba oil burned with the activated carbon, resulting in a bad smell in addition to the Hiba scent. Therefore, incense sticks are manufactured by adding several types of artificial fragrances to resemble the scent of hiba instead of hiba oil.

  Incense sticks are generally more visually valuable when the ash that remains after being sown is more solid than white, which is more convenient in terms of clearing the ash. Therefore, calcium salt, titanium oxide, etc. are added also in the incense stick which has a scent of a hiba.

Japanese Patent Publication No. 5-310546

The scent of hiba expressed by artificial fragrances is different from the original scent of hiba, and the scent of incense is different from the natural scent of hiba when sown. In addition, artificial fragrances inevitably tend to be added in large amounts to incense sticks, so that some of the incense sticks themselves are too fragrant and injuring them. In addition, some chemical substances in artificial fragrances are harmful to the human body, so the use of large amounts of fragrances should be avoided.

Therefore, there has been a demand for an incense that uses the natural scent of natural hiba to produce the natural scent of hiba when sown.

  In addition, calcium salt and titanium oxide added to make the ash remaining after burning the incense stick white and tend to burn out, and thus tend to cause disappearance. In particular, titanium oxide is also expensive. Even incense that generates a scent of hiba when sown, there is a need for an incense that has a gray ash and does not scatter without the addition of calcium salt or titanium oxide.

  As a result of intensive studies on the incense of hiba incense, the present inventors have found a method for solving the above problems and completed the present invention.

  This is an incense stick that adsorbs Hiba oil extracted from a Hiba tree to a synthetic zeolite or a molecular sieve 5A having a pore size equivalent to 5 cm, or a mixture of both, and uses this as a part of the raw material of the incense stick. . This gives a scent of hiba when you whisper.

  In order to make the scent of Hiba when sown, the amount of Hiba oil adsorbed on synthetic zeolite or molecular sieve 5A having a pore size equivalent to 5 Å is 4% or more of incense per 100 g of incense. Moreover, it is an incense in which the synthetic zeolite and the molecular sieve 5A whose pore diameter which adsorb | sucked the hiba oil at this time contains 5 to 70 weight% as a raw material of an incense stick.

  In addition, when 10% by weight or more of Hiba oil adsorbed on synthetic zeolite or molecular sieve 5A with a pore size of 5Å is used as a raw material for incense, the ash after whitening becomes white and solidifies without being shattered. When I whispered, I smelled Hiba.

  The action by solving the above problem is that when the scent of Hiba oil enters the approximately 5 cm pores of the synthetic zeolite and the molecular sieve 5A and stays as they are, the incense is burned and decomposes from the pores by heating. By coming out without doing it, you can feel the scent of hiba. The molecules with the scent of Hiba oil are too small to enter the pores of about 3 mm or about 4 mm, and are too large for the pores of about 13 mm to remain in the pores. Even if zeolite or molecular sieve having a pore size equivalent to 13X is used as a part of the raw material of the incense stick, no scent of hiba is generated when it is sown. Further, the ash remaining after the incense burns is white and solidified due to the influence of the ash of synthetic zeolite or molecular sieve 5A having a pore diameter equivalent to 5 Å.

The incense stick according to the present invention can provide an incense stick that generates a flax scent when whisked and has a white ash after hardening without adding calcium salt or titanium oxide.

Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in more detail with its preferred modes.

  Hiba oil is an oil contained in a Hiba tree and can be used if it has a Hiba scent. There are methods for obtaining Hiba oil from Hiba trees, such as a steam distillation method and a vacuum drying extraction method, but the production method is not limited.

  Synthetic zeolite having a pore size equivalent to 5 mm is a zeolite in which a part of sodium of the synthetic crystalline aluminosilicate hydrous sodium salt is replaced with calcium, and the pore size is about 5 cm (angstrom) and is almost uniform. Synthetic zeolites include A-type, X-type, Y-type, and F-type, but the synthetic zeolite having a pore size equivalent to 5 mm in the present invention is A-type. Further, in order to use the zeolite of the present invention as the incense material, it is preferable in terms of molding and quality to be as fine as possible, and several hundred micrometers or less.

  Although molecular sieve is also called molecular sieve, it is a general name for synthetic fluorite, and there are various types such as 3A, 4A, 5A, 10X, 13X, and Y type. The molecular sieve 5A has a main chemical composition of silica and alumina, in which a portion of the hydrous sodium of the synthetic crystal aluminosilicate is replaced with calcium, and has uniform pores of about 5 mm in size. . There are various shapes, particle sizes, and sizes, but in order to be used as a material for incense sticks, it is preferable in terms of molding and quality to be as fine as possible, being several hundred micrometers or less.

  In order to adsorb hiba oil to synthetic zeolite or molecular sieve 5A having a pore size equivalent to 5 mm, it is sufficiently mixed with hiba oil and left for several minutes to several days, preferably several hours or more. It is preferable to keep the sealed state while leaving it so that the hiba oil does not volatilize. The amount to be adsorbed is effective in the range of about 5 ml to 150 ml of Hiba oil with respect to 100 g of synthetic zeolite or molecular sieve 5A having a pore size equivalent to 5 mm.

  The ratio of synthetic zeolite or molecular sieve 5A with a pore diameter of 5Å corresponding to the incense raw material adsorbed with hiba oil is approximately 5 to 70% by weight of the entire incense incense depending on the amount of adsorbed hiba oil. is there. The amount of adsorbed hiba oil is effective when the amount of adsorbed hiba oil is 4 ml or more per 100 g of incense, but if the amount of hiba oil is too large, It produces oily odors and oily odors other than scents, and reduces the quality of incense sticks. On the other hand, if the amount of synthetic zeolite or molecular sieve 5A having a pore size equivalent to 5 mm exceeds 70% by weight of the entire incense stick, the combustibility is deteriorated and it tends to cause disappearance.

  In order to solidify the ash after whitening, the amount of synthetic zeolite or molecular sieve 5A having a pore diameter of 5 liters adsorbed with hiba oil is 10% by weight or more of the incense.

  As a raw material for incense sticks other than synthetic zeolite with adsorbed hiba oil and a molecular sieve 5A, various woody and plant powders similar to the base material of incense sticks are used, and combustion efficiency is improved. Therefore, a combustion aid that acts as an oxygen supply material may be added, and a binder for molding may be used.

  For example, wood-based powder such as firewood powder, Chinese flour, cedar powder, pine powder, and other dry plant powder, cellulose, charcoal, etc. are used as plant base materials. What does not interfere with the scent of hiba incense is preferred. Hiba incense burning aids include potassium nitrate, aluminum nitrate, sodium nitrate, iron nitrate, barium nitrate, magnesium nitrate, strontium nitrate and other nitrates, sodium perchlorate, potassium perchlorate, ammonium perchlorate, perchlorine Examples thereof include perhalogenates such as magnesium acid, peroxides such as sodium percarbonate and sodium chloride, potassium chlorate, manganese dioxide, iron and iron salts. Although the quantity of a combustion auxiliary agent is based also on the form after shaping | molding an incense stick, about 10 to 40 weight% of the whole quantity is used. If the amount of the combustion auxiliary agent is small, it tends to disappear halfway after ignition. Further, if the amount of the combustion auxiliary agent is too large, a spark will fly at the time of combustion, which is dangerous.

  Examples of binders include starch paste, pine resin, carboxymethyl cellulose, methyl cellulose, mannan, various gums, casein, liquid paraffin, various synthetic polymers, various synthetic resin adhesives, etc., used alone or in a mixture of several types. About 5 to 40% by weight is used. When the binder content is low, the strength becomes brittle, and when it is high, the flammability is adversely affected. Of course, those that do not interfere with the scent of hiba that is generated when sown are preferred.

  After kneading these raw materials, they are formed into a rod shape, cone shape, cylindrical shape, flat plate shape, spiral shape or the like by a press molding machine, an extrusion molding machine, a punching molding machine, an injection molding machine or the like, and dried to complete.
