[0002] Tipping paper is an important auxiliary material in cigarette manufacturing, its function being to firmly connect the filter and the cigarette. Sweeteners are food additives that impart and enhance the sweetness and unique flavor of a product, widely used in food, beverages, and pharmaceuticals. In recent years, cigarette manufacturers have developed tipping paper sweetening technology to improve the sensory quality of cigarettes and enrich their product range. This not only allows consumers to directly perceive the sweetness but also avoids the adverse effects of sweet substance loss and decomposition during cigarette combustion, compared to methods of sweetening tobacco or cigarette paper. However, during storage, as storage time increases, the surface sweetener in sweetened tipping paper migrates to the inside or back of the paper, affecting the consumer's smoking experience. Furthermore, sweeteners are functional food additives that impart sweetness to food. my country's food additive standards allow the use of more than ten kinds of synthetic sweeteners and stipulate their usage limits in different foods. The reasonable use of artificial synthetic food sweeteners is safe; however, exceeding the limits, exceeding the permitted scope, or using inferior artificial synthetic sweeteners can have certain negative impacts on consumer health.
