Abstract

A gum base comprises microparticles containing at least one crosslinked polymer. It has been found that such gum bases exhibit desireable chewing properties similar to conventional gum bases. Cuds formed by chewing gum bases containing crosslinked polymer microparticles are easily removable from environmental surfaces such as concrete, fabrics and flooring materials.

Claims

37 AMENDED CLAIMS received by the International Bureau on 21 SEP 201 1 (21.09.201 1)
1. A chewing gum base comprising microparticles containing at least one crosslinked polymer.
2. The chewing gum base of claim 1 , wherein the crosslinked polymer has a glass transition temperature of less than about 10°C.
3. The chewing gum base of claim 1 or 2, wherein the crosslinked polymer has a complex modulus G* at 25°C of greater than about 104 dyne/cm2.
4. The chewing gum base of any of claims 1 to 3, wherein the microparticles have a largest dimension of no greater than about 1000 microns.
5. The chewing gum base of any of claims 1 to 4 wherein the microparticles have a largest dimension of no less than about 10 microns.
6. The chewing gum base of claim 5 wherein the microparticles have a largest dimension of no less than about 100 microns.
7. The chewing gum base of any of claims 1 to 6 wherein the microparticles comprise a plasticized polymer.
8. The chewing gum base of any of claims 1 to 7 wherein the microparticles comprise a food grade polymer.
9. The chewing gum base of any of claims 1 to 8 wherein the microparticles comprise a polyacrylate, a polyurethane, or a acrylate/urethane copolymer.
10. The chewing gum base of claim 9 wherein the microparticles are formed from a polyacrylate of at least one acrylate monomer comprising isooctyl acrylate, 4-methyl-2-pentyl- acrylate, 2-methylbutyl acrylate, isoamyl acrylate, sec-butyl acrylate, n-butyl acrylate, 2- ethylhexyl acrylate, isodecyl methacrylate, isononyl acrylate, isodecyl acrylate or mixtures thereof.
11. The chewing gum base of claim 10, wherein the at least one acrylate monomer comprises isoctyl acrylate, 2-ethylhexyl acrylate, n-butyl acrylate, or mixtures thereof.
12. The chewing gum base of any of claims 1 to 11 , wherein the microparticles comprise from about 1 weight percent to about 70 weight percent of the total weight of the gum base.
13. The chewing gum base of claim 12, wherein the microparticles comprise from about 5 weight percent to about 40 weight percent of the total weight of the gum base.
14. The chewing gum base of any of claims 1 to 13, further comprising at least one elastomer, elastomer solvent, softener, plastic resin, filler, color, antioxidant emulsifier, or combinations thereof.
15. The chewing gum base of any of claims 1 to 14 wherein the microparticles comprise nonuniform microparticles.
16. The chewing gum base of claim 15 wherein the microparticles comprise polymer composite microparticles, hollow shell microparticles, core-shell microparticles or a mixture thereof.
17. The chewing gum base of any of claims 1 to 16 wherein the base further comprises a softener selected from the group consisting of hydrogenated vegetable oils, partially hydrogenated vegetable oils and mixtures thereof.
18. The chewing gum base of claim 17 wherein the softener is present at a level of 5 to 40% by weight of the gum base.
19. The chewing gum base of claim 17 wherein the softener is present at a level of 10 to 40% by weight of the gum base.
20. The chewing gum base of claim 17 wherein the softener is present at a level of 10 to 30% by weight of the gum base.
21. A method of manufacturing a gum base comprising the steps of adding an aqueous slurry of crosslinked polymeric microparticles to a mixer, adding at least one of an elastomer, an elastomer solvent, a softener, a plastic resin, a filler and/or an emulsifier to the mixer, mixing the components at elevated temperature for a time sufficient to evaporate at least a majority of the liquid, and discharging the mixture from the mixer.
