DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0018] The aerosol matrix additive of one embodiment of the present application includes the following raw materials and their mass proportions: 40 parts ± 10 parts of palm oil; 0.5 parts ± 0.1 parts of linoleic acid agent; 0.5 parts ± 0.1 parts of citric acid agent; 0.5 parts ± 0.1 parts of magnesium chloride agent; 1 part ± 0.5 parts of lecithin; 1 part ± 0.5 parts of coagulant; 5 parts ± 0.5 parts of stabilizer; and 50 parts ± 10 parts of solvent.

[0019] Palm oil is a saturated fatty acid. As the main component of the additive, it has the advantages of good stability and the like, and plays a role in solidification and barrier reaction in the additive and in the aerosol matrix used. Palm oil is preferably palm oil that has been filtered to remove impurities.

[0020] The viscosity of refined palm oil at 25°C is about 0.06 Pa·s, while the viscosity of unrefined palm oil is higher, about 0.1 Pa·s. The viscosity of palm oil decreases with increasing temperature. The higher viscosity of palm oil makes it semi-solid at room temperature (25°C); the melting point of palm oil is 33°C to 39°C, and the freezing point is 20°C to 30°C, which meets the requirements of this application. Unrefined palm oil is preferably used in this application.

[0021] The linoleic acid agent plays a role in weakening the solidification in the additive. The linoleic acid agent is prepared by using linoleic acid; linoleic acid is generally liquid, and in the present application, linoleic acid is preferably mixed with a solvent suitable for it to form a linoleic acid solution with a desired concentration, wherein the solvent includes but is not limited to at least one of propylene glycol and ethanol.

[0022] Preferably, the linoleic acid agent is a linoleic acid solution with a concentration of 1% (mass concentration).

[0023] The citric acid agent plays a role in adjusting the pH in the additive, making the additive slightly acidic. The citric acid agent is preferably a citric acid solution with a concentration of 1% (mass concentration); the citric acid solution is prepared from citric acid and a solvent suitable for the citric acid, and the solvent includes at least one of propylene glycol, ethanol, etc.

[0024] The magnesium chloride agent plays the role of a curing agent in the additive. The magnesium chloride agent is preferably a magnesium chloride solution with a concentration of 1% (mass concentration); the magnesium chloride solution is prepared by dissolving magnesium chloride in a suitable solvent, wherein the solvent includes at least one of propylene glycol, ethanol, etc.

[0025] In some embodiments, the coagulant includes gelatin. In the additive, the gelatin can be powdered or flake gelatin, and in the preparation process of the additive, the gelatin can be melted first and then added to the mixture, or directly melted in the mixture.

[0026] In some embodiments, the stabilizer includes glycerol. Lecithin forms free radicals in the additive, and glycerol can form phosphoglycerol with phosphoric acid in lecithin, which has good stability.

[0027] In some embodiments, the solvent includes at least one of propylene glycol and ethylene glycol, and the above raw materials are respectively dissolved in the solvent.

[0028] Furthermore, since palm oil molecules are relatively large, in order to improve its solubility in the solvent, the aerosol base additive also includes 1 part ± 0.5 parts of 95% ethanol. Ethanol mainly assists the dissolution of palm oil, so the amount added does not need to be too much.

[0029] The method for preparing an aerosol matrix additive according to an embodiment of the present application comprises the following steps: mixing all raw materials and stirring them evenly to obtain an aerosol matrix additive.

[0030] The above preparation process can be carried out at room temperature.

[0031] To improve the dissolution efficiency and mixing degree of the raw materials, the temperature of the solvent can be increased. Alternatively, the temperature of the solvent can be increased to 35°C to 48°C, or the mixed material can be heated to 35°C to 48°C.

[0032] The aerosol matrix additive of the present application is applied to the aerosol matrix to increase the viscosity of the aerosol matrix so that it forms a semi-solid and semi-liquid stable state.

[0033] The aerosol matrix using the aerosol matrix additive of the present application includes a matrix main body and an aerosol matrix additive. The matrix main body can be realized by using the aerosol matrix (atomized liquid) of the prior art.

[0034] The matrix body may further include an active agent. In some embodiments, the active agent includes at least one of nicotine and its derivatives, nicotine may further include natural nicotine, synthetic nicotine, and nicotine derivatives may further include nicotine tartrate, nicotine benzoate, nicotine lactate, etc. Nicotine derivatives may also include nicotine substitutes, nicotine substitute salts, nicotine substitutes include but are not limited to 6-methyl nicotine, and nicotine substitute salts include but are not limited to 6-methyl nicotine salts.

[0035] The matrix body also includes at least one of glycerin, edible flavors, sweeteners, cooling agents, and pH regulators.

[0036] Edible flavors include flavors of various flavors such as fruit flavors, floral flavors, herbal flavors, coffee flavors, etc. The selection of fruit flavors includes but is not limited to apple flavors, mango flavors, citrus flavors, lemon flavors, strawberry flavors, watermelon flavors, grape flavors, peach flavors, pear flavors, banana flavors, etc. Flower flavors include but are not limited to jasmine, rose, camellia, gardenia, etc. Herbal flavors include but are not limited to mint, vanilla, licorice, lavender, etc.

[0037] Sweeteners include, but are not limited to, at least one of xylitol, acesulfame potassium, sucralose, neotame, stevioside, licorice, disodium glycyrrhizinate, tripotassium glycyrrhizinate and trisodium glycyrrhizinate.

[0038] Cooling agents include, but are not limited to, menthol, WS-23, WS-3, WS-5, WS-12, WS-14.

[0039] The pH adjuster includes at least one of sodium carbonate, sodium bicarbonate, citric acid, phosphoric acid, malic acid and lactic acid.

[0040] In some embodiments, the matrix body is preferably a fruit-flavored aerosol matrix, and more preferably an aerosol matrix with a sour fruit flavor.

[0041] The mass percentage of the aerosol matrix additive in the aerosol is 1% to 20%, preferably 5% to 20%.

[0042] The aerosol matrix is ​​added with an aerosol matrix additive to change the aerosol matrix from a liquid state to a semi-liquid and semi-solid mixed state. When used, the aerosol matrix is ​​heated to form a liquid state, which is then atomized to form an aerosol.

[0043] Compared with the liquid state, the semi-liquid and semi-solid mixed state reduces fluidity, thereby slowing down the contact of various substances in the aerosol matrix, reducing the chemical reaction rate of some important substances, and reducing the overreaction and instability of the reaction aroma. On the other hand, when the aerosol matrix is ​​not in use (not in working state), the semi-liquid and semi-solid state further reduces overreaction and keeps its quality stable.

[0044] The aerosol matrix atomizer device using the present application has a semi-liquid and semi-solid mixed state in the aerosol matrix due to the addition of aerosol matrix additives when not in use. When the atomizer device is started, the semi-liquid and semi-solid aerosol matrix is ​​heated to form a liquid state, and is released in an aerosol state under the inhalation of the user and is inhaled by the user.

[0045] The following aerosol matrix additives were validated:

[0046] 1. Puffing effect of different addition amounts of aerosol matrix additives in aerosol matrix

[0047] The amount of aerosol matrix additives added to the aerosol matrix and their viscosities at different temperatures are shown in Table 1 , where the puffing effect was puffed and sensory evaluated with more than 10 people as the sample number.

[0048] Table 1

[0049]

[0050]

[0051] According to the above evaluation, the addition amount of aerosol matrix additives is 5% to 20%, which is ideal and has a good suction effect.

[0052] 2. Shake verification before suction

[0053] The electronic atomization device was shaken before inhalation, that is, the aerosol matrix with aerosol matrix additives added thereto was shaken. The shaking before inhalation was to enhance the fluidity of the aerosol matrix and reduce the risk of the aroma not coming out. The shaking was set to 1, 5, 10, and 15 times. The results are shown in Table 2 below, where the inhalation effect was evaluated by a sample of more than 10 people for inhalation and sensory evaluation.

[0054] Table 2

[0055]

[0056] 3. Aroma stability verification

[0057] Some flavors of the aerosol matrix in the prior art become lighter and less flavorful in the later stage of puffing (after a long time / after the amount puffed is less than 20%). The improvement effect of the aerosol matrix with the addition of an aerosol matrix additive (taking the addition amount of 10% as an example) is verified below.

[0058] After the remaining approximately 20% of the aerosol base mass was sucked out with a suction device, manual inhalation and sensory evaluation were performed. The results are shown in Table 3.

[0059] Table 3

[0060]

[0061] It has been proven that adding aerosol matrix additives can significantly improve the aerosol and have a certain positive impact. It does not bring odor, does not change the original suction effect, and makes the taste of the aerosol matrix stable and continuous.

[0062] The above description is only an embodiment of the present application and does not limit the patent scope of the present application. Any equivalent structure or equivalent process transformation made using the contents of the present application specification, or directly or indirectly applied in other related technical fields, are also included in the patent protection scope of the present application.
