Problems solved by technology

Chinese patent ZL 200710162960.8 discloses mixing extracts of some Chinese herbal medicines into shredded tobacco as a method to reduce harmful phenolic substances in cigarette smoke, but this method may affect the normal combustion of shredded tobacco and affect the taste of the smoke. even increase other harmful ingredients
Chinese patent application CN200910307638.9 discloses that calixarene in solid powder form is directly added to cigarette filters as an additive, which can reduce phenol by about 40%, but the toxicity of calixarene itself has yet to be considered
In addition, Chinese patent application CN200810031589.6 and Chinese patent application CN200710034453.6 respectively disclose ionic liquids and metal oxides as additives for filter rods, and have a certain effect of reducing phenols; however, the preparation process of these two substances is relatively complicated, and The health and safety of filters added with ionic liquids or metal oxides needs further investigation

Abstract

The invention discloses a chitosan polycation additive for reducing phenols in cigarette smoke. The additive is characterized in that the additive takes the granular porous materials as the carrier and hydrophilic polycation materials are loaded on the porous materials; and the hydrophilic polycation is chitosan hydrochloride. When applied to preparing the cigarette filters, the additive can selectively reduce the phenols in the cigarette smoke by utilizing own moisture, at the same time, as most aromatic organic compounds are insoluble in water, the additive can avoid aroma component loss while reducing the phenols in the cigarette smoke and maintain the inner quality of the cigarette.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of tar reduction and harm reduction of cigarettes, in particular to a chitosan polycation additive for selectively reducing the content of phenolic substances in cigarette smoke. Background technique [0002] For a long time, the world tobacco industry has always attached great importance to reducing the harm and tar of cigarettes. In recent years, WHO has made specific regulations on the control of harmful components in smoke, which have received positive responses from countries all over the world. Aiming at various harmful components in cigarette smoke, researchers have developed a variety of harm reduction technologies, among which the modification of cigarette filters is one of the most effective means of harm reduction; by adding or compounding nanomaterials, Polymer materials and biological materials can effectively reduce some harmful components of cigarette smoke. [0003] There are many component...
