AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Existing flavorings are chemically unstable at room temperature and easily decompose, causing flavor components to volatilize, which affects smoking satisfaction and the longevity of cigarette taste.

Method used

A compound represented by chemical formula 1 is used as a flavoring agent. This compound releases flavor components through thermal decomposition when heated. The compound, including the carbonate bond, is stable at room temperature. During thermal decomposition, it generates lactone compounds and fragrance compounds, preventing decomposition and releasing fragrance when smoking.

Benefits of technology

It improves the aroma of sideflow smoke, maintains a consistent cigarette flavor, and is suitable for a variety of smoking products, including cigarettes and heated tobacco sticks, enhancing smoking satisfaction and the persistence of cigarette flavor.
