A kind of preparation method of reducing sugar used for cigarette flavoring

Abstract

The invention discloses a preparation method and application of revertose for flavoring of cigarettes. The preparation method comprises the following steps: (1) weighing purified water in a beaker, and heating to 40 DEG C; (2) weighing saccharose and acetic acid in the beaker, and stirring; (3) after materials in the beaker are uniformly dissolved, controlling the temperature at 80-100 DEG C, and continuing to stir for 3-6 hours; (4) and stopping heating and stirring, and obtaining the revertose after the materials are cooled. According to the preparation method, the revertose is prepared from the saccharose through hydrolysis of acetic acid, and the conversion rate of the saccharose can reach above 95%; and the prepared revertose has a stable state and can be widely applied to the flavoring of the cigarettes, so that the flavor and taste of smoke are improved, the stimulation is reduced, and the quality of the cigarettes is improved. The preparation method has the beneficial effects that the operation is simple and convenient, the cost is low, and the production conversion can be realized.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the preparation of a reducing sugar, in particular to a preparation method and application of the reducing sugar used for flavoring cigarettes. Background technique [0002] Sugar compounds are the most abundant compounds in tobacco, including reducing sugars such as glucose, fructose, and maltose, and non-reducing sugars such as sucrose. Sugar compounds are added to the tobacco leaves. When the tobacco leaves are burned, the sugar compounds are decomposed into aldehydes and ketones, which can improve the aroma and taste of the smoke and reduce the irritation. [0003] Among all sugar compounds, the monosaccharides containing free aldehyde groups or carbonyl groups and the disaccharides containing free aldehyde groups are reducing. Mainly including glucose, fructose, galactose, lactose, maltose and so on. Reducing sugar is widely used in beverages, pastries, ice cream and other foods, which can improve the flavor of food and ...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

However, in the process of preparing reducing sugar by acid hydrolysis of sucrose, factors such as the type and amount of acid, the temperature and time of reaction, and the concentration of substrate sucrose will affect the decomposition rate of sucrose and the conversion rate of sucrose.

[0005] The existing reducing sugar preparation method has the problems of slow decomposition rate, low conversion rate and low quality of the prepared reducing sugar

The conversion rate of reducing sugar is not high, and there is a lot of residual sucrose. It can not only improve the taste and quality of cigarettes when used in cigarette flavoring, but will increase irritation and cause oral residual problems.

Moreover, the stability of reducing sugars prepared under different conditions is also different, and reducing sugars with poor stability cannot be used as additives for flavoring cigarettes.
