Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of aromatherapy products, and particularly relates to a low-temperature burning aromatherapy and a preparation method thereof. Background Art

[0002] Traditional scented candles or incense sticks usually release fragrance through open flame combustion, but high-temperature combustion can destroy the active fragrance-enhancing ingredients and produce a large amount of harmful substances, such as polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and nanoparticles (such as the products of the reaction between terpenes and ozone). To address the defects of high-temperature combustion, low-temperature combustion technology came into being. Its core is to replace open flame combustion with electronic temperature control.

[0003] However, most existing aromatherapy products also contain components such as paraffin, which will produce harmful carbon monoxide gas and carbon-containing smoke when volatilizing. On the other hand, compared with natural wax, its combustion point is relatively high. Therefore, there is an urgent need to provide an aromatherapy that burns at a lower temperature and is more environmentally friendly to meet people's needs. Summary of the Invention

[0004] In view of the deficiencies in the prior art, the present invention aims to provide a low-temperature burning aromatherapy and a preparation method thereof.

[0005] In order to achieve the purpose of the invention, the present invention adopts the following technical solutions:

[0007] The vegetable oils include coconut oil and palm kernel oil;

[0008] The low-temperature additive includes anhydrous ethanol and / or glycerol.

[0009] In the low-temperature burning aromatherapy disclosed in the present invention, the plant wax has a lower combustion point, the porous material can increase the surface area of ​​the material, promote uniform volatilization of the fuel, and avoid local high temperature, while the low-temperature additive can lower the combustion temperature by absorbing heat through evaporation. By using plant wax, porous material, vegetable oil and low-temperature additive, the combustion temperature can be more effectively lowered.

[0010] The low temperature mentioned in the present invention refers to a temperature below 180°C.

[0011] It promotes the stable and slow release of nicotine while extending the burning time; combined with the organic fusion of plant wax, plant oil and nicotine, it can provide a new and better consumer choice for people who want to quit smoking and patients who need nicotine medication.

[0012] Preferably, the components of the low-temperature burning aroma include, by weight, 70-80 parts of plant wax, 1-5 parts of porous material, 1-8 parts of low-temperature additive, 1-6 parts of fragrance, and 1-30 parts of plant oil.

[0019] Preferably, the low-temperature additive is a combination of anhydrous ethanol and glycerol.

[0020] Preferably, the vegetable wax includes any one of soybean wax, coconut wax, palm wax or sugarcane wax, or a combination of at least two thereof.

[0021] Preferably, the vegetable wax is a combination of soy wax and coconut wax.

[0022] In the present invention, both the soybean wax and the coconut wax have a low ignition point, and the soybean wax and the coconut wax can be combined with vegetable oil and aromatics to make the aroma of the fragrance more harmonious.

[0023] Preferably, the mass ratio of the soybean wax to the coconut wax is 1:(0.5-1.5), for example, it can be 1:0.6, 1:0.7, 1:0.8, 1:0.9, 1:1, 1:1.1, 1:1.2, 1:1.3 or 1:1.4, etc.

[0024] Preferably, the aroma is a nicotine-containing aroma.

[0025] Preferably, the nicotine-containing aroma comprises nicotine-based substances, mint essential oil and clove essential oil.

[0026] Preferably, the mass ratio of the nicotine-like substance, mint essential oil and clove essential oil is (0.1-1):(1-3):(2-3).

[0027] Wherein "0.1-1" can be 0.2, 0.3, 0.4, 0.5, 0.6, 0.7, 0.8 or 0.9, etc.;

[0028] "1-3" can be 1.1, 1.3, 1.5, 1.8, 2, 2.2, 2.5, 2.7 or 2.9, etc.;

[0030] The aroma of the present invention adopts a combination of nicotine substances, mint essential oil and clove essential oil. Nicotine substances have a certain spicy and bitter taste. The synergistic combination of mint essential oil and clove essential oil can neutralize the bitter taste and increase the cool and sweet fragrance. Therefore, after using the aroma, consumers not only have the satisfaction of nicotine but also experience the feeling of coolness and sweetness.

[0031] Preferably, the nicotine-based substance includes nicotine and / or nicotine salt.

[0032] Preferably, the nicotine salt comprises any one of nicotine phosphate, nicotine lactate, nicotine citrate or nicotine malate, or a combination of at least two thereof.

[0036] Preferably, the phase change material comprises paraffin microcapsules.

[0037] Preferably, the inorganic salt comprises calcium carbonate and / or borax.

[0038] The aromatherapy of the present invention can further reduce the combustion temperature of the aromatherapy by adding inorganic salts and phase change materials. The inorganic salts can inhibit the combustion chain reaction and reduce the flame temperature; the phase change materials absorb heat and melt during combustion, limiting the temperature increase, and the two have a synergistic effect in reducing the combustion temperature.
