Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of cigarette adhesives, specifically relating to a cigarette adhesive with a plum flavor and its preparation method. Background Technology

[0002] The information disclosed in this background section is intended only to enhance understanding of the overall background of the invention and is not necessarily to be construed as an admission or in any way implying that such information constitutes prior art known to those skilled in the art.

[0003] Cigarette adhesives are generally divided into filter tip adhesive, sealing adhesive, and packaging adhesive. Filter tip adhesive is used to bond the cigarette filter to the tipping paper; packaging adhesive is used for the packaging of cigarette packs and cartons; and sealing adhesive is used to bond the cigarette paper. Filter tip adhesive and packaging adhesive do not participate in the combustion process of the cigarette, while sealing adhesive does. Currently, the domestic cigarette industry mostly uses vinyl acetate-ethylene copolymer emulsion (VAE emulsion) as cigarette adhesive. VAE emulsion is a high-molecular-weight synthetic adhesive, which is prone to producing unpleasant odors during combustion, affecting the sensory and smoking quality of the cigarette.

[0004] Adding flavoring to the sealing glue can compensate for the odor defects caused by its combustion. Current technologies often use flavorings formulated primarily from monomeric compounds. While these flavorings are effective in masking off-flavors and improving taste, they lack richness in aroma, have a noticeable chemical odor, and are incompatible with the aroma of tobacco. Summary of the Invention

[0005] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, the present invention aims to provide a cigarette grease with a plum aroma and its preparation method. The cigarette grease flavoring of the present invention contains natural plum juice extract, providing a fresh, fruity, and sweet aroma profile, reducing unpleasant odors from cigarette grease combustion, decreasing the irritation in cigarette sensory evaluation, and enhancing the sweetness of the smoke.

Detailed Implementation

[0024] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand the technical solution of the present invention, the technical solution of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to specific embodiments and comparative examples.

[0025] Example 1

[0026] Fresh green plums and bayberries were crushed in a container at a mass ratio of 2:1 and passed through a 40-mesh sieve. The sieved plum juice was placed in a constant-temperature magnetic stirrer, and 40% ethanol was added. The material-to-liquid ratio was 1g:30ml. The temperature was set at 55℃ and the speed at 500r / min. The mixture was stirred and extracted for 90min. After cooling and reweighting, the supernatant was collected by centrifugation. The supernatant was then concentrated in a rotary evaporator at a concentration temperature of 55℃ and a vacuum degree of 110mbar to obtain the natural plum juice extract.

[0027] Weigh out 0.2g of lactic acid, 0.1g of palmitic acid, 5g of natural plum juice extract, 75g of polysaccharide solution (jujube polysaccharide and sea buckthorn polysaccharide mixed at a mass ratio of 1:1, concentration 10g / L), and 19.7g of water in sequence. Stir well and let stand to obtain a plum-scented tobacco grease flavoring for later use. Add 0.5g of the above tobacco grease flavoring to 1kg of grease while stirring. Let stand to obtain a plum-scented tobacco grease for later use. Roll cigarettes with the plum-scented tobacco grease using a rolling machine, and evaluate after equilibration in a constant temperature and humidity chamber for 24 hours.

[0028] Example 2

[0029] Fresh green plums and bayberries were crushed in a container at a mass ratio of 2:1 and passed through a 40-mesh sieve. The sieved plum juice was placed in a constant-temperature magnetic stirrer, and 40% ethanol was added. The material-to-liquid ratio was 1g:30ml. The temperature was set at 55℃ and the speed at 500r / min. The mixture was stirred and extracted for 90min. After cooling and reweighting, the supernatant was collected by centrifugation. The supernatant was then concentrated in a rotary evaporator at a concentration temperature of 55℃ and a vacuum degree of 110mbar to obtain the natural plum juice extract.

[0030] Weigh out 0.1g of lactic acid, 0.05g of palmitic acid, 10g of natural plum juice extract, 70g of polysaccharide solution (jujube polysaccharide and sea buckthorn polysaccharide mixed at a mass ratio of 1:1, concentration 10g / L), and 19.85g of water. Stir well to obtain a plum-scented tobacco grease flavoring and set aside. Add 0.5g of the above tobacco grease flavoring to 1kg of grease while stirring. After setting aside, obtain a plum-scented tobacco grease flavoring. Roll cigarettes with the plum-scented tobacco grease using a rolling machine, equilibrate in a constant temperature and humidity chamber for 24 hours, and then evaluate.

[0031] Sensory evaluation was conducted on flavored cigarettes with added flavorings. The control sample was the same blank cigarette. The sensory evaluation scores for the blank cigarette were all recorded as 0 points. Positive scores indicated a good sensory evaluation, while negative scores indicated a poor one. The evaluation mainly included the aroma characteristics, taste characteristics, and aroma style of the flavored cigarettes with added flavorings. Aroma and taste were quantified using a scale of -5 to 5 points, with a scoring unit of 1 point. Aroma style was quantified using a scale of 0 to 3 points, with a scoring unit of 1 point. The evaluation result was the arithmetic mean of all judges (accurate to 0.1). Participants were required to have professional aroma-smelling skills and cigarette sensory evaluation qualifications. Seven judges participated. The results are shown in Table 1.
