Definitions

  • the invention relates to the field of tobacco products, and in particular to an aerosol-generating product, a preparation method and an aerosol-generating system.
  • atomized tobacco products With the improvement of people's health awareness, low-harm cigarettes have become the future development trend of tobacco.
  • the principle of atomized tobacco products is that the aerosol-generating matrix (mainly tobacco raw materials) absorbs the external heat provided by the heater, raising its own temperature and releasing aerosol. Since only the aerosol-generating matrix is heated instead of burned, harmful components produced by high-temperature combustion of tobacco are reduced, and the release of side-stream smoke and ambient smoke is also significantly reduced.
  • atomized tobacco products use tobacco materials as the main raw material for the aerosol-generating matrix, and their aroma is closer to traditional cigarettes, so they are widely favored by consumers.
  • the main problems of atomized tobacco products include poor smoking effect, insufficient fullness, and high aerosol inlet temperature. Problems such as poor smoking effect and bland smoke taste are mainly related to factors such as the structural design of atomized tobacco products, aerosol-generating matrix formula and flavoring.
  • the high aerosol inlet temperature is mainly due to the relatively short aerosol passage of atomized tobacco products, low aerosol filtration effect, and high moisture content in the aerosol, which makes consumers perceive a higher temperature.

Description

一种气溶胶生成制品及制备方法及气溶胶生成系统 技术领域
本发明涉及烟草制品领域,特别涉及一种气溶胶生成制品及制备方法及气溶胶生成系统。
背景技术
随着人们健康意识的提高,低危害卷烟目前已经成为烟草未来发展的趋势。雾化烟草制品的原理是气雾产生基体(主要为烟草原料)吸收加热器提供的外源热量,使其自身温度升高并释放气溶胶。由于采用只加热气雾产生基体而非燃烧,减少了烟草高温燃烧产生的有害成分,且侧流烟气和环境烟气的释放量也明显降低。雾化烟草制品相比电子烟而言,气雾产生基体以烟草物料为主要原料,其香气更接近传统卷烟,因此广受消费者青睐。
目前,雾化烟草制品存在的主要问题有发烟效果不佳、丰满度不足、气溶胶入口温度高等。发烟效果不佳和烟气口味平淡等问题主要与雾化烟草制品结构设计及气溶胶生成基质配方及调香等因素有关。气溶胶入口温度高主要因雾化烟草制品气溶胶通路相对较短,对气溶胶的过滤效果低,气溶胶中的水分含量高,使得消费者的感知温度较高。
公开号为CN104010531B的中国专利文献,公开了与气雾产生装置一起使用的气雾产生制品,其涉及一种气雾产生制品和一种使用气雾产生制品的方法。这种气雾产生制品包括气雾形成基体,该气雾形成基体当由气雾产生装置的内部加热元件加热时用来产生可吸入气雾。这种气雾产生制品还包括冷却元件,使用聚集的可生物降解聚合物材料,比如聚集的聚乳酸薄片。但由于该气溶胶生成制品的整体结构复杂,并且制造复杂、成本高昂,制造此类多元件气溶胶生成制品通常需要相当复杂的制造机械和工艺技术。
中空管状结构结合通风技术是降低雾化烟草制品气溶胶温度的有效手段之一。当流过雾化烟草制品的空气与气溶胶颗粒的混合物到达通风区时,经由通风区抽吸到中空管状段的外部空气与气溶胶混合,迅速降低气溶胶混合物的温度。将通风区设置在离气溶胶生成制品衔口段距上游端一定距离处、冷却段有效地设置在衔口的紧邻上游,有助于气溶胶颗粒的成核和生长。
如公开号为CN113163850A的专利,公开了一种用于在加热时产生可吸入气溶胶的气 溶胶生成制品,该气溶胶生成制品包括:气溶胶生成基质的条以及在条与烟嘴段之间的位置处的中空管状段。中空管状段与条和烟嘴段纵向对准。此外,中空管状段限定一直延伸到烟嘴段的上游端的腔。气溶胶生成制品还包括在沿着中空管状段的距中空管状段上游端小于约18毫米位置处的通风区。中空管状段的周边壁的壁厚小于约1.5毫米。气溶胶生成基质的条至少包括气溶胶形成剂,气溶胶生成基质的条具有以干重计至少约10%的气溶胶形成剂含量。但这种采用通风方式的中空管状降温方式,存在稀释烟气的结果,影响消费者体验,同时增加了制造设备成本,提高了工艺复杂度,降低生产效率。
发明内容

为使本发明的目的、技术方案和优点更加清楚,下面将结合附图对本发明的实施方式作进一步地详细描述。
本实施例提供一种气溶胶生成制品,参考图1,包括气溶胶生成基体10、第一管腔段20、第二管腔段30及过滤段40,以气溶胶生成制品远离嘴端的一端为上游端,靠近嘴端的一端为下游端,气溶胶生成基体10、第一管腔段20、第二管腔段30及过滤段40由上游端至下游端依序设置(即沿图1中X方向所示依序设置)。其中,气溶胶生成基体10用于产生气溶胶消费者抽吸。第一管腔段20连接于气溶胶生成基体10的下游端,第一管腔段20设置有沿轴向贯通的第一空腔21。第二管腔段30连接于第一管腔段20的下游端,第二管腔段30设置有沿轴向贯通的第二空腔31。第一空腔21与第二空腔31形成烟气通道。气溶胶生成基体10经加热产生烟气后,烟气依次经过第一管腔段20、第二管腔段30和过滤段40,过滤段40为非空腔结构,用于过滤烟气有害物质。本实施例中,第一空腔21与第二空腔31在径向上与外界相隔断,即,第一空腔21与第二空腔31不具备通风特征;且第二空腔31的壁厚小于第一空腔21的壁厚,第二空腔31的体积大于第一空腔21的体积。
在另一具体实施方式中,气溶胶生成基体10、第一管腔段20、过滤段40及第二管腔段30沿气溶胶生成制品的上游端至下游端依次设置,即,气溶胶生成基体10经加热产生烟气后,烟气依次经过第一管腔段20、过滤段40和第二管腔段30。
具体地,第一空腔21和/或第二空腔31内的气溶胶与外界环境之间的换热途径主要包括空腔内壁面的对流换热、壁内的导热以及外壁面与环境的对流换热三部分。采用上述技术方案,利用“小空腔结构+大空腔结构”的组合形式,即小体积的第一管腔段20的第一空腔21体积和大体积的第二管腔段30结合的方式,同时,第二空腔31壁厚小于第一空腔21壁厚,能够使得加热后产生的气溶胶经第一空腔21到第二空腔31时压力降低,该流场的突变有利于增强第二空腔31内壁面的对流换热进而促进气溶胶温度的降低;同时,壁厚越薄对应热传递的热阻越小,因而当烟气流经第二空腔31内时,能够充分的通过管腔壁与外界环境之间进行换热,进一步提高降温效果。另一方面,烟气温度同时关联于发烟效果和丰满度,烟气温度被有效降低还可以促使烟气成分的冷凝雾化,提升发烟效果和丰满度。
另外,如上所述,利用“小空腔结构+大空腔结构”的组合形式可实现烟气的有效降温,无需在第一管腔段20或第二管腔段30上打孔,即第一空腔21与第二空腔31在径向上与外界是相隔断的,相比于目前在管腔段上额外打孔以实现降温的方式,本实施例方案可以避免因通过孔引入外界空气而致使烟气稀释的问题发生,即,本实施例技术方案可以兼顾降低气溶胶温度和保证烟气口感两方面。另一方面,第一管腔段20和第二管腔段30均为空腔结构,对流经的气溶胶截留少,可保证尽量多的气溶胶通过并递送给消费者。
具体地,第一空腔21的内径可以依据烟草段的直径相应设置,以防止出现加热元件插入气溶胶生成基体10过程中,因第一空腔21内径过大而使得气溶胶生成基体10内发生轴向位移,甚至导致气溶胶生成基体10中的烟草物质松散,不利于烟草物质之间的传热。
示例性地,第一空腔21与第二空腔31截面形状包括但不限于圆形、椭圆形、星形。第一空腔21与第二空腔31截面形状可以相同,也可以不同,对此不作限制。
进一步地,第二空腔31的体积与第一空腔21的体积满足以下条件:1.5≤V2/V1≤5,其中,V1为第一空腔21的体积,V2为第二空腔31的体积。第二空腔31的体积与第一空腔21的体积的比值范围主要通过调节第二空腔31内径以及第一管腔段20和/或第二管腔段30沿轴向的长度来实现。示例性地,第一空腔的内径为2.5mm~4.5mm,第二空腔的内径为3.5mm~6mm。第一空腔和第二空腔的外径(即气溶胶生成制品的外径)不做限制。
示例性地,第一管腔段20和/或第二管腔段30的长度均不小于5mm,以便于加工,并保证长度稳定。
示例性地,第一空腔21的壁厚为W1,第二空腔31的壁厚为W2,则W1>W2,W2≤1.5mm。优选地,W2≤1.2mm。由于第一空腔21和/或第二空腔31内的气溶胶与外界环境之间的换热途径主要包括空腔内壁面的对流换热、壁内的导热以及外壁面与环境的对流换热,吸烟环境条件相近时,第一空腔21和/或第二空腔31内外壁的对流换热系数相差不大。而薄壁材料的导热系数较低,所以降温效果主要由薄壁的壁厚主导,壁厚越薄对应热传递的热阻越小,空腔内烟气与外界环境之间的换热越充分,降温效果越好。故减小第二空腔31的壁厚也即增大第二空腔31的内径,利于降低气溶胶温度。
同时如上,第一管腔段20壁需具备支撑气溶胶生成基体10的功能,第一空腔21内径过大会使得气溶胶生成基体10加热时易发生轴向位移,甚至导致气溶胶生成基体10中烟草物质松散,不利于烟草物质之间的传热,故第一空腔21的内径不宜过大。但是,第一空腔21的内径过小则易导致产生的气雾在第一管腔段20壁被截留过多,影响烟气口感。故第一空腔21与第二空腔31的相对比值需满足一定范围,才能满足既降低烟气温度,又保证烟气口感,同时防止气溶胶生成基体10发生位移。
具体地,第二空腔31的壁厚为其外壁与内腔壁之间测得的最小距离。实际上,给定位置处的距离是沿着基本垂直于第二空腔31的外壁与内腔壁的方向测量的。对于具有基本圆形横截面的空腔元件,该距离基本是沿着第二空腔31的径向方向测量的。
示例性地,本实施例中,第一管腔段20、第二管腔段30及过滤段40的长度还满足以下条件:L1≤L2,L3≤L2,即,第二管腔段30的长度分别大于第一管腔段20和过滤段40的长度。进一步满足,L3/(L1+L2)≤0.5,即,第一管腔段20和所述第二管腔段30的长度之和大于过滤段40的长度的两倍。优选地,L2/L1≥1.5。
其中,第一管腔段20长度为L1,第二管腔段30长度为L2,过滤段40长度为L3
如此设置,使得第二管腔段30的长度增加,因此增加烟气在第二管腔中的换热时间,能够实现烟气更好的降温。
以下具体描述本申请实施例的气溶胶生成制品的不同参数下,气溶胶捕集量以及烟气出口温度的比对。
实施例一
样品1包括气溶胶生成基体10、第一管腔段20、第二管腔段30及过滤段40,直径为7.8mm。气溶胶生成基体10长度为13.5mm,第一管腔段20长度L1为10mm,壁厚W1为2.1mm;第二管腔段30长度L2为12mm,壁厚W2为1.2mm;过滤段40长度L3为8mm。第二管腔段30的第二空腔31体积V2与第一管腔段20的第一空腔21体积V1的比值V2/V1为2.9。
样品2包括气溶胶生成基体10、第一管腔段20、第二管腔段30及过滤段40,直径为7.8mm。气溶胶生成基体10长度为13.5mm;第一管腔段20长度L1为10mm,壁厚W1为2.1mm;第二管腔段30长度L2为12mm,壁厚W2为0.85mm;过滤段40长度L3为8mm。第二管腔段30的第二空腔31体积V2与第一管腔段20的第一空腔21体积V1的比值V2/V1为3.6。
上述气溶胶生成制品配合加热烟具使用,在比较气溶胶生成制品样品效果时,为保证抽吸条件一致性,使用吸烟机并在一定参数条件下进行测试,以下列举其中一种抽吸方法,具体为:将上述雾化烟草制品分别放入相同的加热烟具中进行抽吸,设置吸烟机参数(如采用钟形波抽吸,抽吸方案为加拿大深度抽吸法,抽吸容量为55mL)。使加热烟具按键时间2.4s,间隔14.6s后开始抽吸第一口,每口抽吸2s,间隔28秒后抽吸下一口,抽吸第8口后,结束捕集,每支烟捕集8口气溶胶。其中,加热烟具的加热方式包括但不限于使用电加热、电磁加热和红外加热。
为比较气溶胶生成制品雾化效果及吸食者从气雾中吸食到的化学物质的量,采用玻璃纤维滤片烟气捕集器收集气溶胶,用于测定气溶胶捕集量,气溶胶捕集物用于气相色谱法测定烟碱及其他化学物质的含量。同时为比较消费者抽吸气溶胶生成制品的温度感受,采用热电偶测温法将热电偶固定于气溶胶生成制品烟气出口中心1毫米处,热电偶连接温度数据采集系统,用于测定抽吸时气溶胶生成制品嘴端出口处烟气的温度。
表1实施例1中样品气溶胶捕集量以及出口烟气温度
由表1可以看出,在实施例1中,在其他参数一致的情况下,减小第二空腔31壁厚,也即V2/V1值增大,有利于降低第二空腔31部分热传递的热阻,第二空腔31内烟气与外界环境之间的换热越充分,降温效果越好。同时,第二空腔31的增大,也降低了第二管腔段30对烟气的截留作用,气溶胶捕集量也有所增加。
实施例二
样品3包括气溶胶生成基体10、第一管腔段20、第二管腔段30及过滤段40,直径为7.8mm。气溶胶生成基体10长度为13.5mm;第一管腔段20长度L1为12mm,壁厚W1为2.1mm;第二管腔段30长度L2为10mm,壁厚W2为1.2mm;过滤段40长度L3为8mm。第二管腔段30的第二空腔31体积V2与第一管腔段20的第一空腔21体积V1的比值V2/V1为2.0。将样品3与样品1进行对比。
表2实施例2对照样品气溶胶捕集量以及出口烟气温度
由表2可以看出,在实施例2中样品1和样品3的对比,是保持第一空腔21和第二空腔31的壁厚相同,而调整第一管腔段20和第二管腔段30长度两部分的相对长度(总长度不变),使得V2/V1比值也发生变化。由对比结果可知,通过增加第二管腔段30长度,减小第一管腔段20长度的方式使V2/V1比值的增大,也有助于提高气溶胶捕集量,并有效降低烟气出口温度。说明在第一空腔21和第二空腔31壁厚不变的情况下,第一管腔段20的长度缩短,降低了对烟气的截留效应;而第二管腔段30的加长,增强了烟气在第二空腔31内的换热,提高了对烟气的降温效果。
也就是说,在第一管腔段20和第二管腔段30总长和外径相同的条件下,调整第一管腔段20和第二管腔段30的空腔体积,使得V2/V1比值控制在设定范围,有助于有效降低烟气出口温度。具体表现为增加第二管腔段30的长度或减小第二空腔31的壁厚。即,在 保持其他因素不变的情况下,减小第二管腔段30的当量壁厚,以减小第二空腔31腔壁的传热热阻,即,使V2/V1值增大,能促进烟气降温。或,在保持第一管腔段20和第二管腔段30总长不变的情况下,减小第一管腔段20长度L1,增大第二管腔段30长度L2,使V2/V1值增大,也可以促进烟气降温。另一方面,增大第二管腔段30的第二空腔31体积的同时,也会降低第二空腔31材料对烟气的截留作用,保证消费者吸入足够烟气的量。
综上所述,本实施例采用小体积的第一空腔21与大体积的第二空腔31的组合形式,小体积的第一空腔21的壁厚及强度能够避免加热元件插入气溶胶产生基体过程中可能发生的烟草物质的轴向位移。且气溶胶产生基体加热后的产生的气溶胶经小体积的第一空腔21到大体积的第二空腔31时压力降低,流场的突变有利于增强烟气在第二空腔31内的对流换热而促进气溶胶温度的降低,提升发烟效果和丰满度;同时,增加第二空腔31体积,也可使第二空腔31降低对烟气的截留,保证烟气口感,提升抽吸体验。
一般来说,出口烟气温度低于65℃大部分消费者都是能够接受的,高于70℃消费者基本都是不能接受的。如实施例一和实施例二所示,本申请实施例技术方案能够使出口烟气温度低于65℃,因此可实现在无需打孔不稀释烟气的情况下降低烟气温度,能够兼顾出口烟气温度降至适宜抽吸的温度和保持烟气口感,达到提升抽吸体验的效果。
进一步地,气溶胶生成制品外层还包括包装材料,用于包裹气溶胶生成基体10、第一管腔段20、第二管腔段30和过滤段40的外表面,以使上述四部分复合形成一个整体。示例性地,包装材料包括纸,所用包裹纸优先选用不透气材料。气溶胶生成制品内部可因各部分结合,以使上述方式不同选用不同长度的包裹纸。在另一具体实施中,也可无包裹纸。
进一步地,气溶胶生成基体10包括但不限于烟草物质、气溶胶形成剂和香味物质等,其中,气溶胶形成剂以干重计在气溶胶生成基体10中占至少约10%的含量,以提升发烟效果。

具体的,均质烟草指代通过使微粒烟草聚结而形成的材料。均质烟草可呈片材形式。 其可通过聚结微粒烟草来形成,微粒烟草通过研磨或以其他方式粉碎烟草叶片和烟草叶梗中的一种或两种而获得。替代地或另外,均质烟草材料的片材可包括在例如烟草的处理、操作和运送期间形成的烟草尘、烟草细粒和其他微粒烟草副产品中的一种或多种。均质烟草材料的片材可包括为烟草内源性粘合剂的一种或多种固有粘合剂、为烟草外源性粘合剂的一种或多种外来粘合剂或其组合,以帮助使微粒烟草聚结。替代地或另外,均质烟草材料的片材可包括其他添加剂,包含但不限于烟草和非烟草纤维、气溶胶形成剂、保湿剂、增塑剂、香料、填充剂、水性溶剂和非水性溶剂以及其组合。
用来包括在用在气溶胶产生基体中的均化烟草材料的薄片中的适当的外来粘合剂包括但不限于:胶,例如瓜尔豆胶、合成生物聚合胶、阿拉伯树胶及刺槐豆胶。纤维素粘合剂,例如羟丙基纤维素、羧甲基纤维素、羟乙基纤维素、甲基纤维素及乙基纤维素。多糖,例如淀粉、诸如藻酸之类的有机酸、诸如藻酸钠之类的有机酸的共轭碱盐、琼脂、果胶、以及它们的组合。
任选地,气溶胶生成基体10可提供在热稳定载体上或包埋于热稳定载体中。载体可采用粉末、颗粒、小球、碎片、细条、条状物或片材形式。可替代地,载体可以是管状载体,其内表面上或其外表面上或其内表面和外表面两者上沉积有固体基质薄层。此管状载体可由例如纸或纸样材料、非织造碳纤维垫、低质量开网金属丝网或穿孔金属箔或任何其他热稳定聚合物基质形成。
气溶胶生成基体10还能够以例如片材、泡沫、凝胶或浆液的形式沉积在载体的表面上。气溶胶生成基体10可沉积在载体的整个表面上,或替代地,可按一定图案沉积,以便在使用期间提供不均匀的香味递送。
进一步地,第一管腔段20、第二管腔段30和过滤段40统称为滤嘴部分。滤嘴部分主要起降低有害物质释放以及降低气雾温度的作用。具体地,第一管腔段20、第二管腔段30可以为两个独立的管腔段,也可以为一个管腔段中不同内径的两个部分。
进一步地,第一管腔段20、第二管腔段30及过滤段40的材料包括以下至少一种,醋纤丝束、丙纤丝束、聚乳酸丝束、纸以及聚合物。第一管腔段20和第二管腔段30都为空腔结构,对流经第一空腔21和第二空腔31的气溶胶截留少,可尽量多地保证气溶胶通过并递送给消费者。过滤段40为实芯结构,一方面过滤气溶胶中的有害物质,如起到有效降低NNK、巴豆醛、苯酚、HCN、氨和BaP等有害物质的释放。进一步地,过滤段40采用高单旦数低总旦数的丝束,示例性地,过滤段40的丝束的单旦数大于等于10旦尼尔,进一步地,过滤段40丝束的单旦数为22旦尼尔。过滤段40的丝束的总旦数为27000旦尼 尔-35000旦尼尔,进一步地,总旦数为32000旦尼尔。丝束总旦数又称丝束总线密度,是以一定长度的丝束的重量值来表示的产品质量指标。在保证支撑强度的前提下,采用高单旦数,但总旦数相对较低的丝束,可使过滤段40的丝束间间隔空间大而减少烟气成分的截留。上述设置,可使滤嘴部分在减害前提下,尽量减少对香味物质、烟碱等物质的截留,保证香味物质、烟碱等物质的有效释放,保证足量烟气成分供给于消费者。
本申请实施例还公开了一种气溶胶生成制品制备方法,用于制备上述气溶胶生成制品。示例性地,制备时,第一管腔段20、第二管腔段30及过滤段40先各自成型,然后使用成型纸将第一管腔段20、第二管腔段30及过滤段40复合成三元复合滤棒,最后将三元复合滤棒与气溶胶生成基体10使用接装纸复合成气溶胶生成制品。气溶胶生成基体10、第一管腔段20、第二管腔段30和过滤段40在制备过程中的结合顺序不做限制。在另一具体实施方式中,先使气溶胶生成基体10和第一管腔段20结合形成第一结合体,第二管腔段30和过滤段40结合形成第二结合体,再使第一结合体和第二结合体连接形成气溶胶生成制品。
示例性地,第一管腔段20和第二管腔段30的成型包括以下步骤:丝束经开松,喷洒三醋酸甘油酯处理后,由高压喷嘴引入滤棒成型烟腔,在成型烟腔中实现第一管腔段20和第二管腔段30(即空芯滤棒)的成型。具体地,滤棒成型烟腔由两部分组成,分别为高温蒸汽快速固化段和低温冷却条快速冷却定型段,且烟腔内部设置有空芯滤棒空腔定型用的芯棒。芯棒为空芯结构,空芯芯棒位于滤棒中心位置,改变空芯芯棒的截面形状,可实现不同异形空芯滤棒的空腔结构。
本申请实施例还公开了一种气溶胶生成系统,包括上述气溶胶生成制品和气溶胶产生装置,气溶胶产生装置包括加热元件,加热元件用于插入至气溶胶生成基体10中以加热气溶胶生成基体10进而产生气溶胶。
虽然通过参照本发明的某些优选实施方式,已经对本发明进行了图示和描述,但本领域的普通技术人员应该明白,以上内容是结合具体的实施方式对本发明所作的进一步详细说明,不能认定本发明的具体实施只局限于这些说明。本领域技术人员可以在形式上和细节上对其作各种改变,包括做出若干简单推演或替换,而不偏离本发明的精神和范围。
