Problems solved by technology

[0003] Although adding some functional additives to cut tobacco can improve the whiteness of cut tobacco ash, it often brings some unpredictable safety hazards, so it is rarely used
[0004] In addition, due to the dense structure of cut stems, it is easy to burst when burned, which affects the ash property of cigarette packs, so it is generally not used directly in cut tobacco formulations
Although expanded shredded stems can greatly reduce the bursting situation, due to the high content of non-flammable components such as pectin, the burning ash is generally black, resulting in the blackening of cigarette ash and affecting the consumption experience of consumers.

Embodiment 1

[0034] Add warm water at 40°C to the conventional expanded cut stems and filter for soaking for 30 minutes. After soaking again, dry the cut stems by airflow drying to control the moisture content at about 8%. The eluted and dried cut stems are conveyed into the rotating drum, sprayed with 5% glycerin of the cut stem mass under the condition of continuous rotation, and then taken out after 40 minutes of decompression and equilibrium diffusion at 400mbar, which is the method described in the present invention. A shredded stem product that enhances the whiteness of cigarette ash.

[0035] The crushing rate of cut stems obtained by the method is about 12%. Adopt this shredded stem to make cigarette (2#) with shredded tobacco without stalk according to the ratio in the original formula, and compare with original cigarette (1#), the results are as follows:

[0036] Sample serial number Ash Whiteness Tuff index 1# 96.2 6.1 2# 121.2 4.9

[0037] It can...

Embodiment 2

[0040] Add warm water at 60°C to the conventional expanded cut stems and filter after soaking for 20 minutes. After soaking again, the cut stems are dried by airflow drying technology to control the moisture content at about 10%. The eluted and dried cut stems are conveyed into the rotating drum, sprayed with 15% glycerin of the cut stem mass under the condition of continuous rotation, and taken out after depressurization and equilibrium diffusion at 800 mbar for 20 minutes, which is the method described in the present invention. A shredded stem product that enhances the whiteness of cigarette ash.

[0041] The crushing rate of cut stems obtained by the above method is about 17%. Adopt this shredded stem to make cigarette (2#) with shredded tobacco without stalk according to the ratio in the original formula, and compare with original cigarette (1#), the results are as follows:

[0042] Sample serial number Ash Whiteness Tuff index 1# 96.2 6.1 2# 126....

Embodiment 3

[0045] Add warm water at 50°C to the conventional expanded cut stems and filter for soaking for 20 minutes. After soaking again, dry the cut stems by airflow drying to control the moisture content at about 9%. The eluted and dried cut stems are conveyed into the rotating drum, sprayed with 10% glycerin of the cut stem mass under the condition of continuous rotation, and taken out after depressurization and equilibrium diffusion at 600 mbar for 30 minutes, which is the method described in the present invention. A shredded stem product that enhances the whiteness of cigarette ash.

[0046] The crushing rate of cut stems obtained by the method is about 16%. Adopt this shredded stem to make cigarette (2#) with shredded tobacco without stalk according to the ratio in the original formula, and compare with original cigarette (1#), the results are as follows:

[0047] Sample serial number Ash Whiteness Tuff index 1# 96.2 6.1 2# 124.1 5.1

Abstract

The invention discloses a cut stem treatment method capable of improving cigarette ash whiteness. The cut stem treatment method comprises the following steps: (1) carrying out elution treatment on cutstems; and (2) repairing the eluted cut stems by adopting a repairing agent so as to recover the processing resistance of the cut stems, so that the cut stems can be smoothly added into cigarettes for use in the normal cigarette production process. After the cut stems treated by the method disclosed by the invention are added into cigarettes for use, the ash whiteness of the cigarettes can be obviously improved by 15-30 units, the ash coagulation index is reduced by 1-2 units, the sensory quality of the cigarettes is slightly changed, and potential safety hazards are avoided.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of cigarettes, in particular to a shredded stem treatment method capable of improving the whiteness of cigarette ashes. Background technique [0002] In recent years, with the improvement of consumers' pursuit of cigarette quality, designers have begun to optimize some cigarette details, and the whiteness of cigarette ash is one of them. Generally speaking, the whiteness of soot can be roughly divided into two types, one is the whiteness of the ash column, that is, the whiteness of the outer surface of the columnar ash that appears after the cigarette is burned; the other is the whiteness of the tobacco ash, that is, the whiteness of the inner tobacco after burning , the whiteness of the burning ash of shredded tobacco after peeling off the ashes of the cigarette paper. The ash column whiteness of cigarettes is mainly related to the burning properties of cigarette paper and its matching with shredded tobacc...
