DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a perfume incense which is mainly used for burning and scenting. In particular, the present invention relates to a perfume incense suitable for fragrance in a highly airtight room.

[0002] In the present specification, blending units are weight units unless otherwise specified.

[0003] In the present specification, "note" means a group. For example, a fragrance belonging to a fruity note means a fragrance exhibiting a fruity scent.

[0004]

2. Description of the Related Art With the improvement of living standards in recent years, required characteristics in a room of a home or an office are changing from the conventional minimum of civil to amenity (creative comfort).

[0005] One method of providing amenities to a room is to dissipate fragrance into the room in addition to conventional air purification.

As a method for temporarily and easily obtaining a fragrance, use of a perfume incense which can be easily handled without being restricted by tools and manners of operation such as a perfume can be considered.

[0007]

However, in the perfume incense marketed on the market, as far as the present inventors know, the odor (fragrance) is generally too strong, and the fragrance is temporarily provided at home or office. It wasn't packed for fun.

[0008] As a publicly known document on perfume incense,
Although it does not directly affect the invention of the present invention, there is JP-A-8-225439. It is described in the literature that the object of the invention is to "provide an aromatic incense with a light aroma of incense which is stably retained for a long period of time and which has a strong odor when used." .

The conventional perfume incense is generally the same as the base material (bonding base material) of the incense provided in front of France.
That is, tabco obtained from bark or the like is used as the bonding base material. For this reason, it contains a large amount of cellulose and emits a large amount of smoke during combustion. High smoke levels have an adverse effect on fragrance. Also, as in recent years, from the standpoint of heat insulation and soundproofing of rooms, not only in apartment buildings, but also in general houses, in the current situation where airtightness is increasing, burning perfume incense,
On the contrary, there is a possibility that the room amenities, which are the above required characteristics, are impaired.

Further, a perfume incense which can exhibit a chamomile-like scent, which has become popular in recent years, has not been put on the market as far as the present inventors know. The reason is that simply mixing chamomile oil as a fragrance component into the incense composition, when the incense is fired, most of the chamomile oil becomes a foreign compound due to chemical changes including thermal decomposition due to heat. is there.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION In view of the above, it is an object of the present invention to provide a perfume incense that can emit a weak fragrance into a room when fired.

Another object of the present invention is to provide a perfume incense which emits almost no smoke when fired and which does not impair room amenities due to the smoke.

Still another object of the present invention is to provide a perfume incense that can emit a chamomile-like weak fragrance into a room when the incense is burned.

[0014]

A perfume incense stick according to the present invention solves the above-mentioned problems by the following constitution.

[0015] In the perfume incense in which the fragrance component is dispersed in a binding base material (matrix) together with other functional components, the fragrance component includes, in addition to the base fragrance, white powder, vanillin and shell fragrance as essential components. It is characterized by containing.

Further, the incense composition may be prepared by adding a perfume component: 3 to 10
%, Bonding base material: 10 to 20%, charcoal powder: 30 to 50%, aluminum hydroxide: 10 to 30%, calcium carbonate: 5
~ 15%, other components: It is desirable that the composition be composed of the balance, because it can suppress smoke when burning incense.

By using pine oil containing chamomile oil as an essential component of the base flavor, when a incense is burned, a weak chamomile-like fragrance can be diffused.

[0018]

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS Next, a perfume incense stick of the present invention will be described based on one embodiment.

A. The perfume incense of the present invention is one in which a fragrance component is dispersed in a binding base material (matrix) together with other functional components.

(1) As the binding base material serving as a dispersion medium, a material obtained by appropriately adding a synthetic sizing agent such as polyvinyl alcohol or a natural or semi-synthetic sizing agent such as CMC to a tree or bark powder can be used.

Examples of the above-mentioned tree / bark powders include tub powder (Tanoki powder), juniper powder, camphor powder, sycamore powder, Matiras powder and the like. When fired, it is desirable that the smell be as low as possible.

The amount of the resin powder depends on the properties of the resin powder, but is usually 10 to 20%. If the amount is too large, smoke is likely to be generated, and if the amount is too small, it is difficult to function as a shaping agent and a bonding base material.

Particularly, less than half of the resin powder (usually 30 to
(45 wt%) is substituted by carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC).

(2) As the fragrance component, one containing, as essential components, white powder, vanillin and shellfish in addition to the base fragrance is used.

White powder disperses the fragrance,
It has the effect of carrying it over long distances. The amount of white powder added is 30 to 500 parts, preferably 100 to 300 parts, and more preferably 150 to 20 parts, per 100 parts of the base flavor.
0 copies. If the amount is less than 30 parts, it is difficult to obtain the above-mentioned effect,
Further, when 500 parts or more are added, the odor of the white platform becomes too strong.

Vanillin has the effect of removing the smell of wood and bringing out sweetness. The amount of vanillin added is 1 perfume
3 to 50 parts, preferably 10 to 30 parts with respect to 00 parts
Parts, more preferably 15 to 25 parts. If the amount is less than 3 parts, it is difficult to obtain the above-mentioned effect, and if it is more than 50 parts, the smell of vanillin becomes too strong.

[0027] Shell scent acts as an auxiliary fragrance. The amount of the fragrance added was 0.1 parts with respect to 100 parts of the base flavor.
To 1 part, preferably 0.3 to 0.7 part, more preferably 0.4 to 0.7 part. If the amount is less than 0.1 part, sufficient action as a fragrance agent cannot be obtained, and even if added in an amount of 1 part or more, no further effect is obtained and it is useless.

The fragrance component is 3 with respect to the entire incense composition.
-10%, preferably 5-8%, more preferably 5-5%
7%. If it is less than 3%, it does not easily exceed the threshold value of odor (scent) when burned, and if it exceeds 10%, the odor becomes too strong, that is, it is difficult to obtain a weak fragrance.

(3) The base fragrance is not particularly limited, but when a chamomile-like fragrance is desired to be obtained, for example, the following configuration is used.

Pine oil containing chamomile oil as an essential ingredient, fruity notes, herbal notes,
Use a composition in which fragrances belonging to floral notes, woody notes, and musk notes are mixed.

The pine oil contains 5 to 25%, preferably 10 to 20%, more preferably 12 to 18%, based on the total amount of the base flavor. The mixing weight ratio of chamomile oil to the pine oil is 1 /
10 to 1/20, desirably 1/12 to 1/18.

As a fragrance belonging to the fruity note,
Natural flavors such as orange, grapefruit, citronella, mandarin, lemongrass, lime, bergamot, lemon, apple, and synthetic flavors such as linalyl acetate, citral, isobutyl isobutylate, and the like can be given.
One or more of these can be used as a mixture. Fragrance belonging to fruity note,
20 to 40%, preferably 2%, based on the total amount of the base flavor
5 to 30% is to be contained.

Examples of the fragrance belonging to the herb note include natural fragrances such as lavender, rosemary, and galvanum, and synthetic fragrances such as bornyl acetate. It is possible to use. The flavor belonging to the herb note is 10 to 25%, preferably 12 to 20%, based on the total amount of the base flavor.
contains.

As the fragrance belonging to the floral note,
Natural flavors such as ylang-ylang, clary sage, jasmine, geranium, tuberose, hyacinth, mimosa, and rose; geraniol, benzyl acetate, citronellol, methyl dihydrojasmonate, cis jasmon, damascon, terpineol, hydroxycitronellal, phenylacetaldehyde, phenyl Synthetic fragrances such as ethyl alcohol, hexylcinnamic aldehyde, and rose oxide can be exemplified, and one or more of these can be used in combination. The fragrance belonging to the floral note contains 3 to 15%, preferably 5 to 10%, based on the total amount of the base fragrance.

Examples of the fragrances belonging to Woody Note include natural fragrances such as Cedarwood, White Sandalwood (sandalwood), patchouli, vetiver, kayapte, camphor, hiba, bay, fragrance and eucalyptus, and synthetic fragrances such as synthetic sandals and linalool. And the like, and among them, one kind or a mixture of two or more kinds can be used. The fragrance belonging to Woody Note is based on the total amount of base fragrance.
It should contain 5-20%, preferably 10-15%.

Examples of the fragrance belonging to musk note include natural fragrances such as musk fragrance, and synthetic fragrances such as ethylene brassate and galact solid. Among these, one or more kinds may be used. It is possible to mix and use. The flavor belonging to the musk note is 10 to 30%, preferably 15 to 25%, based on the total amount of the base flavor.
%.

(4) Further, an adsorbent containing activated carbon and aluminum hydroxide as essential components is blended with the above incense stick composition to obtain a small smoke incense proposed earlier by the present inventors of the present invention. This is desirable from the viewpoint of not impairing the amenities at the time of the operation (see JP-A-7-309736).

Here, activated carbon is a combustible adsorbent, and aluminum hydroxide (hydrated aluminum oxide) is a noncombustible adsorbent. If only one of the activated carbon and the aluminum hydroxide is blended, a sufficient low smoke effect cannot be obtained. With activated carbon alone, the burning rate of the incense stick is too fast, and with only aluminum hydroxide, it is difficult for the incense stick to burn. In the case of using carbon powder as activated carbon, the mixing ratio of the two is usually as follows: carbon powder / aluminum hydroxide = 4/6
８8/2.

As activated carbon, carbon powder is usually used. Charcoal powder is obtained by pulverizing charcoal (for example, central particle size:
13.5 μm), which helps burn incense sticks and captures smoke mainly generated from charcoal. When activated carbon is used, the adsorptivity becomes too strong, and there is a possibility that even an odor is adsorbed, and it becomes difficult to emit fragrance when burning incense.

The blending amount of the coal powder is 30 to 50% based on the whole composition. If it is less than 30%, it is difficult to achieve a low smoke effect, and if it exceeds 50%, the burning rate of the incense stick becomes too fast, which is not desirable.

Aluminum hydroxide (hydrated aluminum oxide) is a non-flammable adsorbent (for example, having a central particle size of
50 μm), and exhibits a function of reducing smoke with the above-mentioned coal powder. Therefore, when used in combination with charcoal powder, the burning speed of the incense can be adjusted to an appropriate speed. The amount of aluminum hydroxide to be added depends on the burning rate required for the incense stick.
To 30%.

(5) Further, in addition to the above adsorbent, calcium carbonate can be blended as a flame retardant and smoke thinner.

Since calcium carbonate generates carbon dioxide due to strong heat, it has the effect of delaying the burning rate and the effect of reducing the smoke concentration. The amount is usually 5 to 15%. If it is less than 5%, it is difficult to achieve the effect of reducing the smoke. If the amount exceeds 15 parts, the burning speed becomes slow, which causes extinguishing.

B. The perfume incense of the present invention,
Other auxiliary materials (dye, fungicide, fragrance, binding aid,
) Is added and mixed to form a powdered incense composition, and water (normally hot water) is added and kneaded to form a dumpling in the same manner as before. After extrusion, it is cut and dried.

[0045]

EXAMPLES Examples performed to confirm the effects of the present invention will be described below.

To 100 parts of the incense composition of the following formulation containing the base flavor shown in Table 1 was added with about 5 parts of hot water (80 ° C.).
After kneading by adding 0 parts, the mixture was extruded into a linear shape using a porous die having a hole diameter of 2 mm, then cut and dried on a dry plate.
After drying at room temperature for 24 hours, the incense stick of the example was obtained.

Prescription of incense composition : 2.2 parts (1 part of base flavor, 1 part of white powder, 0.2 part of vanillin) Shellfish incense 0.005 part Tab powder 20 parts Charcoal powder 32 parts Aluminum hydroxide 18 parts Calcium carbonate 4 parts CMC 4 parts Other components 19.795 parts The perfume incense stick of the example obtained above exhibited a weak chamomile-like scent when fired, and almost no smoke was generated.
