Problems solved by technology

In addition, studies have also shown that the pyrolysis products of propylene glycol are mainly acetaldehyde and acetone, leading to an increase in the content of harmful substances such as acetaldehyde in the flue gas
In addition, a slightly larger amount of propylene glycol will also bring a pungent smell to the smoke, which is not good for the taste of cigarettes

Embodiment 1

[0017] Example 1. Weigh 100g of tea polyphenol powder samples, keep the temperature in an oven at 120°C for 120min, crush them through a 40-mesh sieve to obtain a neutral sample of modified tea polyphenols; weigh 100g of tea polyphenol powder samples, add 10g of 2% hydrochloric acid solution , stir evenly to form a semi-dry material, keep the temperature in an oven at 120°C for 120min, and pulverize through a 40-mesh sieve to obtain a modified tea polyphenol acidified sample; weigh 100g of tea polyphenol powder sample and add 10g of a mass fraction of 2% sodium hydroxide solution, Stir evenly to form a semi-dry material, keep the temperature in an oven at 120°C for 120 minutes, and pulverize through a 40-mesh sieve to obtain an alkalized sample of modified tea polyphenols. Weigh 30g of the prepared neutral sample, 5g of the acidified sample, 5g of the alkalized sample and 5g of propylene glycol and add them to 55g of water to adjust the pH to neutral. Add 0.5g preservative an...

Embodiment 2

[0018] Example 2. Weigh 100g of tea polyphenol powder sample, keep the temperature in an oven at 100°C for 145min, and crush it through a 40-mesh sieve to obtain a modified tea polyphenol neutral sample; weigh 100g of tea polyphenol powder sample and add 15g of 1% sodium hydroxide solution by mass fraction , stir evenly to form a semi-dry material, keep the temperature in an oven at 100°C for 145min, and pulverize through a 40-mesh sieve to obtain a modified tea polyphenol alkalized sample. Weigh 20 g of the prepared neutral sample and 20 g of the alkalized sample and add them to 60 g of water to adjust the pH to neutral. Add 0.5g preservative and 0.5g defoamer to prepare tea polyphenol moisturizer. Weigh 10g of humectant and spray evenly onto 1000g of shredded tobacco. The amount of humectant is 1% of the mass of tobacco leaves. Cigarette samples were prepared from the shredded tobacco.

Embodiment 3

[0019] Example 3. Weigh 100g of tea polyphenol powder sample, keep the temperature in an oven at 150°C for 30min, crush it through a 40-mesh sieve to obtain a modified tea polyphenol neutral sample; weigh 100g of tea polyphenol powder sample, add 20g of 0.5% hydrochloric acid solution , stir evenly to form a semi-dry material, keep the temperature in an oven at 150°C for 30 minutes, and pulverize through a 40-mesh sieve to obtain a modified tea polyphenol acidified sample. 30 g of the prepared neutral sample, 20 g of the acidified sample, and 10 g of propylene glycol were weighed and added to 40 g of water to adjust the pH to neutral. Add 0.5g preservative and 0.5g defoamer to prepare tea polyphenol moisturizer. Weigh 10g of humectant and spray evenly onto 1000g of shredded tobacco. The amount of humectant is 1% of the mass of tobacco leaves. Cigarette samples were prepared from the shredded tobacco.

Abstract

The invention provides a tea polyphenol tobacco humectant and the application thereof in cigarettes. The humectant is mixed and made from the following components, by weight, 10 % to 50 % of neutral tea polyphenol, 0 % to 25 % of acidic tea polyphenol, 0 % to 15 % of alkaline tea polyphenol, 0 % to 20 % of propylene glycol, 0.1 % to 0.5 % of antiseptic, 0.1 % to 0.5 % of antifoaming agent, and 30 % to 70 % of water, and the pH value is neutral. The humectant can be used for moisturizing cigarettes, the processability of tobacco can be raised, fragments of tobacco leaves can be reduced during processing, consumption of tobacco leaves of cigarettes can be reduced, at the same time, the taste and mouth feel of the cigarettes can be improved, smoke stimulation can be reduced, physical moisturizing and sensitive moisturizing of the cigarettes can be modified at the same time. The raw material of the humectant is tea polyphenol which comes from tea and environmental friendly. The tea polyphenol humectant and polyphenol contained in the cigarettes are the same in kind, so the fragrance of smoke is good in compatibility. The tea polyphenol tobacco humectant has potential prospects of popularization and application.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a tobacco additive technology, specifically the preparation of a tea polyphenol tobacco humectant and its application in cigarettes. The humectant is environmentally friendly and has the dual functions of simultaneously improving tobacco physical moisture retention and sensory moisture retention Effect. Background technique [0002] Tobacco humectants can effectively maintain the moisture of tobacco leaves, increase the softness of tobacco leaves, improve the processing resistance of tobacco, reduce the crushing of tobacco leaves during processing, and reduce the consumption of tobacco leaves in cigarettes. At the same time, the humectant also has the effect of reducing smoke irritation and improving taste and taste. At present, the humectant used by domestic cigarette manufacturers is mainly propylene glycol. However, propylene glycol is a petrochemical product based on oil and natural gas, and its price has been increasing ...
