Description

[Technical Field]

[0001] The present invention relates to a heterogeneous heated aroma-generating substrate containing at least an aroma source material, an aerosol former, and a heat-melting substance, which generates an aerosol and an aroma by heat transmitted from a heat source such as a heater rather than by a flame, a heated aroma-generating source using the substrate, a heated aroma cartridge equipped with the source, and a method for manufacturing the substrate.In particular, the present invention relates to a heated aroma-generating substrate that is easily melted by a heat source, promotes the generation of aerosol and aroma, and has high toughness and excellent moldability, a heated aroma-generating source using the substrate, a heated aroma cartridge equipped with the source, and a method for manufacturing the substrate.

[0002] Conventionally, the above-mentioned "heated aroma-generating substrate" has often been referred to as an "aerosol-forming substrate," but because heating volatilizes the aerosol former that forms the aerosol, as well as the aroma components of the aroma source material, such as aromatic plants, and the aromatic agent, and the aerosol smoke and the aroma of the aroma source material or aromatic agent are enjoyed by smoking, in the present invention it is referred to as a "heated aroma-generating substrate." Based on this, an "aerosol-forming body" filled with an aerosol-forming substrate and an "electronic cigarette cartridge" equipped with an aerosol-forming body are referred to as a "heated aroma-generating source" and a "heated aroma cartridge," respectively. [Background technology]

[0003] In recent years, as smoking bans have become more widespread in public spaces such as workplaces and restaurants, fewer people are smoking cigarettes by burning them with flames, while a sharp increase has been seen in the number of people using heated smoking devices that use heated aroma cartridges equipped with a heated aroma generating source formed from an aerosol former that generates an aerosol by heat transmitted from a heat source such as a heater, and a heated aroma generating base material containing an aroma source material including tobacco plants of the genus Nicotiana, family Solanaceae. This heated smoking reduces the inhalation of harmful substances generated by the thermal decomposition and combustion of conventional tobacco, and technological development of various products for enjoying heated smoking has been actively pursued (e.g., Patent Documents 1 to 5).

[0004] The mechanism of such heated smoking varies depending on the form of the heated smoking device, heated aroma cartridge, etc., but a typical example is shown below. A heated aroma cartridge has a heated aroma-generating source filled with a heated aroma-generating substrate at one end and a mouthpiece at the other end. When the heated aroma-generating source is attached so that it comes into contact with the heat source of the heated smoking device and is heated, volatiles from the aroma source material, including an aerosol former and tobacco plants, are released from the heated aroma-generating source. At the same time, these volatiles are drawn into the mouthpiece at the other end along with air when the smoker inhales. During this volatile transport process, the volatiles from the aerosol former cool and condense to form a smoke-like aerosol, and other volatiles impart aroma to the smoker's mouth and nose, resulting in the enjoyment of smoking. Therefore, in the case of heated smoking, smoking can be performed at around 200 to 350°C, which is the temperature at which the aerosol formers such as glycerin and propylene glycol contained in the heated aroma-generating base material can be volatilized, that is, at a temperature at which the tobacco leaves begin to thermally decompose.Since the tobacco leaves do not burn, the generation of harmful substances is extremely low, and the amount of harmful substances inhaled by the smoker and passive smokers around the smoker is greatly reduced.

[0005] Furthermore, to reduce harmful substances, materials have been designed to reduce the tobacco content in the heated aroma-generating substrate that constitutes the heated aroma-generating source. For example, as a substitute for tobacco plants, non-tobacco plants that emit various aromas have been used in combination, and even nicotine-free heated aroma-generating substrates that can be used to enjoy a pleasant smoking experience using only non-tobacco plants without using tobacco plants at all have been developed (Patent Document 5). Meanwhile, efforts have also been made to effectively utilize materials and reduce material costs by using tobacco stems, leaf pieces, dust, etc., generated during the conventional cigarette manufacturing process.

[0006] In contrast, conventional flame smoking, which burns tobacco with a flame, requires a temperature of at least 600°C for combustion, and can reach a maximum of 900°C during smoking, resulting in the release of a significant amount of harmful substances.However, because it does not contain any components other than the tobacco plant, the burning of tobacco produces sufficient smoke to satisfy the smoker's visual desire, nicotine, which is the root cause of the smoker's addiction to tobacco, and numerous aromatic compounds.

[0007] Due to these fundamental differences in the mechanisms between heated smoking and flame smoking, the heated aroma-generating substrate filled into the heated aroma-generating source that constitutes the heated aroma cartridge equivalent to a cigarette is made of a material that suppresses not only the aroma and nicotine emitted from tobacco plants that smokers desire, but also the various aromas emitted from non-tobacco plants.

[0008] First, as described above, the heated aroma-generating substrate is constituted as an essential material, an aerosol former for generating an aerosol that appears as smoke without combustion.

[0009] Patent Documents 1 to 5 describe that the heated aroma-generating base material is composed of the following materials that suppress not only the aroma and nicotine emitted from tobacco plants, but also various aromas emitted from non-tobacco plants.

[0010] The aerosol former, an essential component of the heated aroma-generating substrate, is a liquid such as glycerin or propylene glycol. Therefore, a safe binder is used to ensure that the aerosol former remains stable when mixed with tobacco and non-tobacco plants. Typical binders include natural polysaccharide polymers and natural cellulose polymers. Furthermore, cellulose fibers may be added to enhance the binding strength of these binders and allow them to be molded into cylindrical heated aroma-generating substrates.

[0011] In addition to the same purpose, microcrystalline cellulose may also be added as a molding agent to reduce shrinkage of the heated aroma base material during drying and to improve its moldability.

[0012] When fragrances such as cooling agents or nicotine are used to supplement the aromatic components, cross-linked polyvinylpyrrolidone or cyclodextrin, which function as adsorbents, may also be included to ensure that these are stably retained without being released until the optimal smoking temperature is reached.

[0013] As such, the heated aroma-generating substrate that forms the heated aroma generating source provided in the heated aroma cartridge for heated smoking must contain a large number of materials that inhibit the generation and volatilization of smoke components and aroma components due to heating, such as binders, molding agents, and sorbents, in addition to the aerosol former that becomes the smoke components, and the tobacco plants, non-tobacco plants, and aromas that become the aroma components, and aromatics, and it is not easy to generate smoke and aromas that smokers can fully enjoy.

[0014] To solve this problem, Patent Document 6 proposes a homogenized tobacco material, i.e., a homogenous heated aroma-generating substrate, formed by a casting method from a slurry, which is a tobacco powder dispersion liquid, in which natural wax derived from plants with a melting point of 50 to 150°C is dissolved in an aerosol former. However, this method is considered insufficient, and Patent Document 7 proposes a solution in which plant-derived oil with a melting point of 20 to 50°C is introduced. [Prior art documents] [Patent documents]

[0015] [Patent Document 1] Special Publication No. 2008-518614 [Patent Document 2] Special Publication No. 2010-520764 [Patent Document 3] Special Publication No. 2013-519384 [Patent Document 4] Special Publication No. 2016-538848 [Patent Document 5] Patent No. 6280287 [Patent Document 6] Patent No. 6433626 [Patent Document 7] Patent No. 6442110 Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0016] As described in the Background Art section, smoking using a heated aroma cartridge (equivalent to a cigarette, with at least a heated aroma source and a mouthpiece connected) and a heated smoking device, with the heated aroma source attached to the heat source of the heated smoking device, reduces the inhalation of harmful substances such as nicotine and is therefore healthier. However, although the heated aroma-generating substrate that forms the heated aroma source contains an aerosol former that produces smoke components, as well as tobacco plants, non-tobacco plants, and aromatics that produce aroma components, it requires the use of numerous materials that inhibit the generation and volatilization of smoke components and aroma components through heating, such as binders, molding agents, and sorbents, making it difficult to produce smoke and aromas that smokers can fully enjoy.

[0017] Therefore, the present invention aims to provide a heated aroma-generating substrate that uses the heat source of a heated smoking device to sufficiently generate volatiles from aerosol formers, which become smoke components, and from aroma source materials and aromatic agents, such as tobacco plants and non-tobacco plants, which become aromatic components, allowing smokers to enjoy the smoke and aroma to their satisfaction, a heated aroma-generating source using this substrate, a heated aroma cartridge equipped with this source, and a method for manufacturing this substrate. [Means for solving the problem]

[0018] The inventors have hypothesized that if the heated aroma generating substrate that forms the heated aroma generating source provided in the heated aroma cartridge has a phase-separated structure in which a heat-melting substance containing an aroma source material and / or an aromatic, i.e., an aromatic heat-melting powder, is uniformly dispersed, the amount of volatilization of aroma components and smoke components can be increased based on the following hypothesis.

[0019] First, phase separation between the aroma source material and / or aromatic and the aerosol former facilitates volatilization upon contact with a heat source. In particular, by distributing the aroma source material and / or aromatic, which volatilize their aroma components upon contact with a heat source, uneven distribution in the thermally melting substance allows the aroma source material and / or aromatic to be locally concentrated to a higher concentration than if they were present throughout the entire aroma-generating substrate, thereby enabling the aroma components to volatilize more efficiently upon contact with the heat source. Second, the high thermal fluidity of the thermally melting substance allows the volatile components of the aroma source material and / or aromatic generated therein to migrate to the surface of the heated aroma-generating substrate together with the aerosol former, facilitating volatilization. Third, thermally melting substances such as wax have a weaker interaction with aroma components than aerosol formers such as glycerin and propylene glycol, allowing the aroma components to be more easily released from the thermally melting substance.

[0020] On the other hand, we believe that the thermally fused substance not only can reliably fix the aroma source material and / or aromatic agent at room temperature, but also fulfills the important function of maintaining the heterogeneous structure of the heated aroma-generating base material formed by phase separation from the aerosol former. In particular, we presumed that a thermally fused substance with poor affinity for the aerosol former would be more preferable for maintaining this heterogeneous structure.

[0021] Based on this hypothesis, various studies were conducted on the materials constituting the heated aroma-generating substrate, manufacturing methods, etc., and it was demonstrated that a heated aroma cartridge equipped with a heated aroma-generating source wrapped around a heated aroma-generating substrate having a heterogeneous structure in which aromatic heat-fusible powder containing at least an aroma source material, an aerosol former, and a heat-fusible substance, and in which the aroma source material and / or aromatic agent is mixed into the heat-fusible substance, is capable of fully enjoying the aroma and smoke when smoking with a typical heated smoking device, even if the composition excluding the heat-fusible substance is the same as that of conventional products, and it was confirmed that the heterogeneous structure of the heated aroma-generating substrate is stably maintained, leading to the completion of the present invention.

[0022] In other words, the present invention is a heated aroma-generating substrate that forms a heated aroma source for a heated aroma cartridge that is attached to a heated smoking device and is heated and inhaled to generate an aerosol and aroma, and is characterized in that the heated aroma-generating substrate contains at least an aroma source material, an aerosol former, and a heat-melting substance, and an aromatic heat-melting powder in which the aroma source material is mixed with the heat-melting substance is uniformly dispersed in the heated aroma-generating substrate.

[0023] The minimum outer diameter of this aromatic heat-fusible powder is preferably 125 to 355 μm, more preferably 150 to 300 μm, and even more preferably 180 to 250 μm. If the outer diameter of the aromatic heat-fusible powder is too large, its total surface area will be small, reducing the chance of contact with the heat source, resulting in insufficient melting of the heat-fusible substance and a reduced amount of volatilized aromatic components. On the other hand, if the outer diameter of the aromatic heat-fusible powder is too small, it will be difficult for the powder to form a sea-island structure in which it is uniformly dispersed in the heated aroma-generating base material, and the powder will exist as agglomerated lumps, creating areas where the melting rate upon contact with the heat source is reduced and reducing the amount of volatilized aromatic components.

[0024] In order to balance the volatilization amounts of the smoke components and the aromatic components, the compounding ratios of the aromatic source material, the aerosol former, and the thermally melting substance are preferably 55 to 75 mass%, 20 to 40 mass%, and 2 to 15 mass%, respectively, and more preferably 60 to 70 mass%, 25 to 35 mass%, and 3 to 10 mass%, respectively.

[0025] The heat-melting substance that plays an important role in such a heated aroma-generating base material is not particularly limited as long as it is "an organic compound that exhibits a melting point or softening point and becomes a non-Newtonian fluid when heated." Organic compounds generally referred to as waxes are preferred, and representative examples of waxes include petroleum-based natural waxes, synthetic waxes, plant-based natural waxes, and animal-based natural waxes. Various tackifiers (adhesive agents) such as rosin, which is also used as waxes, can also be used. These can be used alone or as a mixture containing at least one selected from these.

[0026] Petroleum-based natural waxes are hydrocarbon compounds, and therefore have little interaction with aromatic components and aerosol formers. Therefore, they are not particularly limited, and petrolatum, paraffin wax, and microcrystalline wax can be preferably used. However, these waxes have different properties based on their molecular structure. Petrolatum is a mixture of branched hydrocarbons and alicyclic hydrocarbons, and has a wide melting point range of 36 to 60°C. Paraffin wax is primarily composed of linear hydrocarbons, is highly crystalline, and most waxes have a melting point range of 40 to 70°C, resulting in a narrow melting point range. Microcrystalline wax is a mixture of branched hydrocarbons and saturated cyclic hydrocarbons, and has low crystallinity but a high molecular weight. It has the highest melting point of 60 to 90°C, and its melting point range is second only to petrolatum. As such, all of these are hydrocarbon compounds extracted from crude oil, but paraffin wax and microcrystalline wax have low melt viscosity when thermally melted, low surface energy, and little interaction with aromatic components and aerosol formers, making them the most suitable thermally melting substances for heated aroma-generating substrates.

[0027] Examples of such paraffin waxes include standard products such as Paraffin Wax-115, 120, 125, 130, 135, 140, 145, 150, and 155 manufactured by Nippon Seiro Co., Ltd., and any of these products is preferably used. Special paraffin waxes, such as the HNP series, which are high-purity refined paraffin waxes specially manufactured by Nippon Seiro Co., Ltd., the SP series for specific applications, and the EMW series, which are manufactured by a special method and contain isoparaffin as the main component, are also preferably used. Examples of microcrystalline waxes that are preferably used include the Hi-Mic series manufactured by Nippon Seiro Co., Ltd.

[0028] As the synthetic wax, Fischer-Tropsch wax, polyethylene (PE) wax and modified PE wax, polypropylene (PP) wax and modified PP wax, fatty acid amide, fatty acid, fatty alcohol, polyoxyalkylene glycol, polyoxyethylene alkyl ether, and polyoxyethylene alkylamine can be preferably used.

[0029] In particular, Fischer-Tropsch wax is a linear hydrocarbon-based organic compound, which has a low melt viscosity when thermally melted, a low surface energy, and minimal interaction with aerosol formers and fragrance components, making it suitable as a thermally meltable material for heated aroma-generating substrates. Examples of suitable waxes include Sasol's standard product H1 (melting point: approximately 112°C), mid-melting point product C80 (melting point: approximately 85-88°C), high-melting point product C105 / H105 (melting point: approximately 117°C), and BYK's CERAFAK® 117 (melting point: approximately 110°C) and 127N (melting point: approximately 120°C).

[0030] PE wax and modified PE wax, as well as PP wax and modified PP wax, are also hydrocarbon compounds and can be preferably used. Specifically, products such as HIWAX (registered trademark) manufactured by Mitsui Chemicals, Inc., SANWAX and VISCOL (registered trademark) manufactured by Sanyo Chemical Industries, Ltd., and BYK's CERAFAK (registered trademark) 929, 950, 913, 914, and 915 have melting points of approximately 94 to 161°C and can be preferably used. Metallocene-catalyzed polyolefin waxes are particularly preferred due to their narrow molecular weight distribution. For example, EXCEREX (registered trademark) manufactured by Mitsui Chemicals, Inc., which is a metallocene-catalyzed PE wax, has a melting point of 89 to 128°C due to its narrow molecular weight and composition distributions, but its melt viscosity upon thermal melting is low, making it an excellent polyolefin wax.

[0031] Suitable fatty acid amides include monoamides and bisamides. Preferred monoamides include stearic acid monoamide, oleic acid monoamide, and erucic acid monoamide, which have melting points of approximately 72 to 105°C. Preferred bisamides include ethylene bisstearic acid amide and ethylene bisoleic acid amide, which have melting points of approximately 140 to 145°C. While these amides contain polar groups, they have small molecular weights and no molecular weight distribution, resulting in lower thermal melt viscosities than plant-derived waxes and oils, further promoting the movement of aerosol formers. For example, monoamides include Alflow® S-10, E-10, and P-10 manufactured by NOF Corporation, and bisamides include Alflow® H series and AD series manufactured by NOF Corporation and Kao Wax EB series manufactured by Kao Corporation.

[0032] Fatty acids that are preferably used include capric acid, lauric acid, myristic acid, pentadecylic acid, palmitic acid, margaric acid, stearic acid, arachidic acid, behenic acid, lignoceric acid, and melissic acid, which have melting points of about 30 to 94° C. For example, capric acid, lauric acid, myristic acid, palmitic acid, stearic acid, and behenic acid are more preferred because they are industrially produced by NOF Corporation and the like.

[0033] Preferred aliphatic alcohols include lauryl alcohol, tridecyl alcohol, myristyl alcohol, pentadecyl alcohol, cetyl alcohol, 1-heptadecanol, stearyl alcohol, cetostearyl alcohol, elaidyl alcohol, nanodecyl alcohol, arachidyl alcohol, heneicosanol, behenyl alcohol, lignoceryl alcohol, ceryl alcohol, 1-heptacosanol, montanyl alcohol, 1-nonacosanol, and myricyl alcohol, which have melting points of about 23 to 87° C. For example, lauryl alcohol, myristyl alcohol, cetyl alcohol, stearyl alcohol, and cetostearyl alcohol are more preferred because they are industrially produced by NOF Corporation and the like.

[0034] These higher fatty acids and higher aliphatic alcohols have a carboxyl group and a hydroxyl group bonded to the end of a straight-chain hydrocarbon, respectively, and have no or an extremely narrow molecular weight distribution. As a result, like paraffin wax, they have a low melt viscosity when thermally melted and a narrow melting point range, which greatly promotes the deformation and flow of the heated aroma-generating substrate when heated.

[0035] As the polyoxyalkylene glycol, polyethylene glycol with an average molecular weight of 600 to 11,000 is preferred because it has a low melting point and low melt viscosity when thermally melted. Also preferred is a polyethylene glycol-polypropylene glycol block polymer with 40 to 80 wt% polyethylene glycol units and an average molecular weight of 3,000 to 13,000, which has a melting point of approximately 20 to 60°C. This is also used as a nonionic surfactant, and has a narrow molecular weight distribution and a narrow melting point range, resulting in excellent fluidity when thermally melted.

[0036] As the polyoxyethylene alkyl ether, polyoxyethylene monomethyl ether having an average molecular weight of 1,000 to 4,000 is preferred, as it has a melting point of approximately 40 to 55° C. This is also used as a nonionic surfactant, but has a narrow molecular weight distribution and a narrow melting point range, and therefore has excellent fluidity when thermally melted.

[0037] Preferred examples of polyoxyethylene alkylamines include polyoxyethylene-stearylamines having a melting point of about 25° C., such as Nymeen (registered trademark) S204 manufactured by NOF Corp., and those having a melting point of about 45° C., such as Nymeen (registered trademark) S202 manufactured by NOF Corp. These are also used as nonionic surfactants, but have a linear hydrocarbon unit with 18 carbon atoms, a narrow molecular weight distribution, and a narrow melting point range, and therefore have excellent fluidity when thermally melted.

[0038] Although the natural plant waxes and natural animal waxes are not particularly limited, preferred natural plant waxes are hazel wax, urushi wax, carnauba wax, sugarcane wax, palm wax, and candelilla wax, and preferred natural animal waxes are beeswax, spermaceti, privet wax, wool wax, and shellac, as they have relatively high melting points, can stably fix the fragrance source material and / or fragrance, and have high thermal fluidity.

[0039] However, although plant-based natural waxes and animal-based natural waxes are primarily composed of esters of fatty acids and fatty alcohols, they are mixtures of esters of fatty acids and fatty alcohols with various carbon numbers, and also contain free fatty acids, free fatty alcohols, hydrocarbons, etc., and because they have a wide molecular weight distribution, they have a wide melting temperature range and high viscosity when melted. In addition, because they contain organic compounds with ester bonds, free fatty acids, and free fatty alcohols, they also interact greatly with aerosol formers and aromatic components. Therefore, petroleum-based natural waxes, synthetic waxes, and rosin and rosin derivatives, which are tackifiers described below, are more preferred as heat-melting substances.

[0040] Tackifiers include rosin and rosin derivatives, as well as terpene resins and modified terpenes. Resins can be preferably used. Specifically, rosin and rosin derivatives are available from Arakawa Chemical Co., Ltd. Gum rosin, rosin ester (pencel), and maleic acid modified rosin manufactured by Gakugaku Kogyo Co., Ltd. Resins, rosin-modified phenolic resins (Tamanol) are preferred. Terpene resins and modified Terpene resin is a terpene monomer homopolymer resin (YS resin) manufactured by Yasuhara Chemical Co., Ltd. PX and YS Resin PXN), aromatic modified terpene resin (YS Resin TO), and terpene resin Phenol resin (YS Polyster series) is preferably used. Rosin and rosin derivatives with high thermal fluidity and little interaction with aerosol formers Conductive materials are more preferred, and rosin is even more preferred.

[0041] As described above, there are a wide variety of thermally meltable substances, but the aroma-generating substance in the heated aroma-generating substrate of the present invention is In order to uniformly disperse the aromatic heat-melting powder, it is particularly necessary to use a hydrocarbon-based organic compound, such as petroleum. Natural wax, Fischer-Tropsch wax, PE wax and modified PE wax Preferred are wax, PP wax, modified PP wax, rosin and rosin derivatives. Among them, paraffin wax and microcrystalline wax are preferred from the viewpoint of melting point and thermal fluidity. Stalin wax, Fischer-Tropsch wax, PE wax, PP wax, Metallocene-catalyzed polyolefin waxes are particularly preferred.

[0042] These heat-melting substances have melting points and softening points, but are not particularly limited to the aroma source material and / or the fragrance. is firmly fixed at room temperature, and from the viewpoint of thermal fluidity when it comes into contact with a heat source, the melting point is 20 to 20 The temperature range is preferably 0°C, and more preferably 50 to 200°C. It's nice.

[0043] Furthermore, the melting point of the heat-melting substance is more preferably in the temperature range of 150 to 200°C. This is believed to be due to the following reasons: The aroma-generating substrates dispersed throughout the container are also formed into a columnar shape, as in the past. The heated aroma source is formed by filling the heated aroma source into the packaging material and wrapping it around the packaging material so that the heated aroma source is in contact with the heated aroma source. When smoking, the heated aroma cartridge is attached to the heated smoking device. In this case, a heat source is inserted into such a heated aroma-emitting source, and the heated aroma-emitting group is heated. If the melting point of the aromatic heat-melting powder material is low, the aromatic heat-melting powder will melt easily. The generating substrates are fused together, blocking the gas flow path. To ensure sufficient absorption of volatilized smoke and aroma components, the melting point of the heat-melting substance must be 150 Preferably, the temperature is at most 200°C.

[0044] As such, there are few waxes with a melting point of 150 to 200°C, and PP wax and The scope of application is limited to modified PP wax, rosin derivatives and modified terpene resins. The wax and modified PP wax are particularly preferably used because they have excellent thermal fluidity. Specifically, PP wax and modified PP wax are Hiwax manufactured by Mitsui Chemicals, Inc. (registered trademark) NP500, and BYK CERAFAK (registered trademark) 913, 91 4 and 915, which have a melting point of about 160°C and are preferred. As a rosin derivative, Rosin Este manufactured by Arakawa Chemical Industries, Ltd. Pencel D-160 and KK, and rosin-modified phenol manufactured by Arakawa Chemical Industries, Ltd. Examples of modified terpene resins include TAMANOL resin and YASUHA resin. Examples include YS Polyster T160 and YS Polyster G150 manufactured by La Chemical Co., Ltd. can.

[0045] On the other hand, aromatic materials are particularly those used in Chinese tea, black tea, roses, and olives of the Oleaceae family. Seed plants, lavender and saffron flowers, as well as radishes, shallots, garlic The rhizomes of meat, onion, and konjac, as well as Chinese quince and other plants of the genus Citrus in the Rutaceae family (Bitter orange, Unshu mandarin, summer orange, Ponkan, Hassaku, Iyokan, each Orange, Mandarin orange, Kabosu, Kishu mandarin, Kino Grapefruit, Koji, Sanboukan, Citron, Jabara, Sudachi, Tachiba Na Tangor, Natsumikan, Hanayuzu, Hyuganatsu, Hirami Lemon (Shikuwasa) ) Pomelo, Yuzu, Lime, Lemon, Kaffir lime, etc.), Rosaceae (Peach genus, Peach species) Plants, apple, pineapple, mango, kumquat, melon, pomegranate, plum, apricot, Blueberries, plants of the genus Fragaria, raspberries, bananas, and grapes The seeds, as well as the peppermint family plants of the genus Mentha of the Lamiaceae family (peppermint, Japanese mint, and plummint, watermint, Corsican mint, pennyroyal mint, etc.), Lamiaceae Spearmint plants of the genus Spearmint (spearmint, horsemint, green mentha, chili menha) ginger mint, catnip, lemon balm, bellflower Savory, hyssop, and plants of the Nicotiana species of the Solanaceae family The above-ground stems and leaves of Suitable for providing, but not limited to:

[0046] However, when the heated aroma cartridge is attached to the heated smoking device, The fragrance is defined as the scent that comes from the product itself, and the aroma that comes from the heated aromatic cartridge. Aroma is sometimes defined as a scent that floats in the air, and heated aromatic cartridges are heated to create an aerosol. It is preferable to have three elements of flavor defined as the aroma that wafts into the mouth when inhaled together with the aroma of the cigarette. It's nice.

[0047] As a fragrance, it is used in Chinese tea, black tea, roses, and Oleaceae family Osmanthus species. flowers of plants, lavender, saffron, and the above-ground stems and leaves of plants of the Nicotiana species of the Solanaceae family It is preferable to include at least one selected from the above.

[0048] The aromas include radish, shallot, garlic, onion, and konjac root. and at least one or more selected from the aboveground stems and leaves of plants of the genus Nicotiana and Nicotiana species of the family Solanaceae. It is preferred to include the above.

[0049] Flavors include Chinese quince, plants from the Rutaceae genus (bitter orange, satsuma mandarin, Summer orange, Ponkan, Hassaku, Iyokan, Ichan lemon, Trifoliate orange, Orange Mandarin orange, Kabosu, Kishu mandarin, Quinotte, Grapefruit, Koji · Sanboukan · Citron · Jabara · Sudachi · Tachibana · Tangor · Natsumikan · Ha Yuzu, Hyuganatsu, Hirami Lemon (Shikuwasa), Pomelo (Pomelo), Yuzu Limes, lemons, kaffir limes, etc.), plants of the Rosaceae family, apples, pineapples, Mango, kumquat, melon, pomegranate, plum, apricot, blueberry, oranda of the Rosaceae family The fruits of the genus Zygo, raspberries, bananas, and grapes, and the genus Mentha of the family Lamiaceae Mint plants (peppermint, Japanese mint, apple mint, water mint, Corsican mint, pennyroyal mint, etc.), spearmint plants of the mint family (S Pearmint, horsemint, green peppermint, chili peppermint, ginger mint, etc.), Cottonmouth, Lemon Balm, Savory, Willow Mint Hyssop, and a few above-ground stems and leaves of plants of the Nicotiana species of the Solanaceae family. It is preferred to include at least one or more.

[0050] Aerosol formers are propylene glycol, ethylene glycol, diethylene glycol ethanol, triethylene glycol, tetraethylene glycol, glycerin, monoacetin (glycerin monoacetate), and diacetin (glycerin diacetate), etc. Among them, propylene glycol, ethylene glycol, diethylene glycol Recall, triethylene glycol, tetraethylene glycol, and glycerin The inclusion of at least one selected from the group consisting of volatile compounds upon contact with a heat source and compounds containing volatile compounds upon cooling is advantageous. This is particularly preferred because it has excellent aerosol forming properties that appear as smoke.

[0051] Furthermore, it is preferable to further contain a fragrance to supplement the fragrance source material. It is more preferable that the fragrance is mixed into the heat-melting substance together with the fragrance material. At least one selected from the group consisting of nicotine and nicotine can be used. Flavoring agents are important, such as menthol and menthol derivatives, menthone and menthol. Derivatives of Menthane, Menthanecarboxylic Acid Amide, 2,3-Dimethyl-2-(2-propyl)-Butyl Acid derivatives, menthane and menthane derivatives, L-carvone, xylitol, eucalyptus essential oil, Peppermint oil, spearmint essential oil, and spilanthol are preferred. The agent is 3 parts by mass per 100 parts by mass of the total amount of the fragrance source material, aerosol former, and thermal melting substance. It is sufficient if the amount is 5 to 25 parts by mass, but if it is contained in an amount of 5 to 20 parts by mass, the aromatic components of the aromatic source material are compensated for. This is more preferable because it does not cause problems such as a decrease in the strength of the aroma generating agent when heated.

[0052] In this way, the material that constitutes the heated aroma-emitting substrate can prevent the generation of smoke and other odors that are generated when it comes into contact with a heat source. It is possible to improve the sensory functions such as aroma and flavor, but it is molded into a heated aroma-generating substrate. To achieve this, the aroma-generating substrate to be heated must be easily releasable from the molding machine that comes into contact with the aroma-generating substrate to be heated. It is also necessary to prevent damage such as breakage of the heated aroma-emitting substrate during molding. In addition, it reduces volume shrinkage after molding, prevents the heated aroma-emitting substrate from falling off, and improves gas flow. Stability over time, such as maintaining the optimum condition of the duct, is also required. is preferred.

[0053] The molding agent is preferably microcrystalline cellulose, and in particular, its average particle size is 7. It is preferable that the average particle size of the microcrystalline cellulose is 70 μm or less. This has the effect of suppressing the shrinkage of the aroma-generating base material to be heated, and also of It is not possible to prevent adhesion with the machine, and if the thickness is 120 μm or more, it will Although there is no problem with the mold release from the molding machine, the aroma-emitting substrate when heated is prone to breaking. The mass average molecular weight (Mw) of the microcrystalline cellulose is 20,000 to 60,000. When the molecular weight is 20,000 or less, the effect of suppressing the shrinkage of the aroma-generating base material when heated is improved. If it is more than 60,000, the aroma-generating substrate when heated is prone to breakage, causing problems in molding. In the case of this molding agent, the total amount of the fragrance source material, aerosol former, and heat-melting substance is 10 0 parts by mass, it is sufficient if it is 2 to 25 parts by mass, but by containing 3 to 20 parts by mass, While fulfilling the above functions, it also prevents the generation of volatiles from the fragrance source material and aerosol former. This is preferable as it does not cause any problems.

[0054] The heated aroma-generating substrate contains at least an aroma source material, an aerosol former, and a thermally meltable substance. Since the aerosol former is liquid, it binds them together and maintains the lump state. To solve the above problems in molding processing, it is necessary to use a binder with high safety. Representative examples include natural polysaccharide polymers and natural cellulose polymers. However, by further increasing the binding strength of these materials, it is possible to mold them into a columnar, heated aroma-generating substrate. It is more preferable to add cellulose fibers so that the fibers can be easily mixed.

[0055] Polysaccharide polymers include konjac mannan (glucomannan), guar gum, pectin, and Lagenan, tamarind gum, gum arabic, soybean polysaccharides, locust bean gum, Karaya gum, xanthan gum, agar, etc. can be used, but the strength and the above-mentioned molding From the viewpoint of processability, glucomannan, guar gum, pectin, carrageenan, tamari Preferred are cereal gum, locust bean gum, karaya gum, and xanthan gum, Neutral polysaccharides glucomannan, guar gum, tamarind gum, and locust bean Gum is more preferred.

[0056] Cellulose-based polymers include carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC), carboxyethyl cellulose (CMC), cellulose, hydroxymethyl cellulose, hydroxyethyl cellulose, and hydroxymethyl cellulose. Hydroxypropyl cellulose, and sodium salt, potassium salt, and calcium salt of CMC sodium salts of carboxyethyl cellulose, and sodium, potassium, and calcium salts of carboxyethyl cellulose. However, from the viewpoint of strength and moldability, it is preferable to use CMC. Sodium and potassium salts, and sodium and potassium salts of carboxyethylcellulose The potassium salt is preferred.

[0057] A polysaccharide polymer and a cellulose polymer may be used in combination. In this case, the former is a cellulose polymer. The latter includes lucomannan, guar gum, tamarind seed gum, and locust bean gum. As the carboxyethyl cellulose, sodium salt and potassium salt of CMC The use of sodium salts and potassium salts is preferred from the viewpoint of strength and moldability. stomach.

[0058] Cellulosic fibers include, among others, sugarcane, bamboo, wheat, rice, esparto, and jute. The cellulose fibers are preferably those having a fiber diameter and a fiber length of The cellulose fibers of other plants are in the range of 5-25 μm and 0.25-6 mm. Although it is thinner and shorter than the conventional method, it has been found to be more effective in binding the components of the aroma-generating substrate when heated. I put it out.

[0059] This binder is added to 100 parts by mass of the total amount of the fragrance source material, aerosol former, and heat-melting substance. The amount is preferably 5 to 30 parts by mass, which improves strength and molding processability and To avoid adverse effects on the generation of volatile matter from Luformer, the content must be 8 to 28 parts by mass. The blending amount of the cellulose fiber is more preferably the same as that of the polysaccharide polymer and the cellulose polymer. The ratio of polymer to cellulose fiber is 1:1 to 1:25 by mass, which is the most effective for binding. Above is preferred.

[0060] On the other hand, when the fragrance is introduced without being contained in the thermally meltable substance to supplement the fragrance of the fragrance source material, In this case, the heat source of the heated smoking device is an aerosol former that produces smoke components and an aroma source that produces aromatic components. There is a possibility that the fragrance may volatilize and be released before the wood reaches the optimum temperature for volatilization. The heated aroma-generating material must retain the aroma until it reaches a predetermined temperature. Therefore, it is preferable that the composition further contains a sorbent.

[0061] As described above, when the sorbent is used for cooling agents and nicotine, the following is true for cooling agents: , hydrophilic cross-linked polymers, and cyclodextrins are preferred. As the hydrophilic cross-linked polymers, cross-linked Polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) adsorbs chemical substances with phenolic hydroxyl groups, especially The crosslinked PVP is preferably a five-membered heterocyclic compound containing nitrogen similar to nicotine. It is believed that the interaction between the two is formed, and therefore the nicotine adsorbent Crosslinked PVP is also suitable as a cyclodextrin. It is known to form inclusion compounds with chemical substances that have hydroxyl groups or carboxyl groups of various sizes. In particular, β-cyclodextrin forms an inclusion compound with menthol, It is an ideal sorbent for cellulose.

[0062] Such a sorbent may contain a total of 100 mass % of the fragrance source material, the aerosol former, and the heat-melting substance. In the case of crosslinked PVP, the amount may be 4 to 25 parts by mass, but it is preferable that the amount is 5 to 20 parts by mass. In the case of cyclodextrin, the amount may be 0.1 to 1.2 parts by mass. It is more preferable that the amount of the hydroxybenzoate is 0.2 to 1.0 parts by mass. is more preferred.

[0063] Finally, dried and insecticided fragrance materials are used, but heated fragrance cartridges are used for long-term storage. In order to preserve the aroma, it is necessary to include a preservative in the heated aroma-generating base material. Potassium sorbate and / or sodium benzoate are suitable for the heated aroma-generating base material. In this case, the total amount of the fragrance source material, the aerosol former, and the heat-melting substance is 100 parts by mass. It is preferable that the content of the inorganic filler is 0.005 to 0.04 parts by mass.

[0064] The aroma-generating substrate to be heated described above is a heated aroma cartridge to be attached to a heated smoking device. The heated aroma source on the insertion side is configured, and this heated aroma source is inserted into the heated aroma cartridge. The present invention also provides a heated aroma-emitting source formed using this heated aroma-emitting substrate, and The present invention also provides a heated aroma cartridge that uses this heated aroma source.

[0065] First, a heated aroma-emitting source formed using a heated aroma-emitting substrate will be described. The aroma source may be at least an assembly of the heated aroma-generating substrates. The needle-shaped heat source is easily inserted into the source, and the flow path for the gas to be sucked is secured. Therefore, the heated aroma-emitting source of the present invention is a heated aroma-emitting substrate that is molded and processed. The columnar object is packed and wrapped in a packaging material so that the sides of the columnar object are in contact with each other. The shape of the particles is not particularly limited, and may be cylindrical, prismatic, granular, scale-like, or the like. It is preferable that the heated aroma source has a rectangular pillar shape in order to satisfy the functions required of the heated aroma source. It is more preferable that the aggregate is in contact with the side surface of the cylindrical or prismatic body. It is more preferable that the aromatic material to be heated is attached or detached. The aroma generating base material does not fall off, and the heat source easily penetrates the heated aroma generating source, releasing smoke components and aroma. A gas flow path is secured in the direction of the flow of the flavor components, allowing for a pleasant smoking experience.

[0066] When considering the construction of a heated aroma cartridge, the assembly of the above-mentioned heated aroma-emitting substrates is The heated aroma generating substrate is wrapped in a cylindrical wrapping material. The aroma source is easy to handle and is preferable. The heated aroma-emitting substrate, the debris from the heated aroma-emitting substrate, and the dust generated by the debris. This is also preferable in terms of preventing the aroma-emitting substrate from falling off and scattering. The assembly is wrapped with a heated aroma-generating substrate wrapping member. A fragrance source is more preferable because it is easy to insert the heat source and a gas flow path can be secured.

[0067] Next, a heated aroma cartridge equipped with the heated aroma generating source of the present invention will be described. One of the heated aroma cartridges of the present invention having a simple configuration is a cylindrical heated aroma source. The heated aroma cartridge is housed in an exterior member that is the main body, and the heated aroma cartridge is made of a material other than the heated aroma source. The cylindrical space of the exterior member of the incense cartridge is formed as a mouthpiece. In addition, one of the heated aroma cartridges of the present invention having a simple configuration is a heated aroma emitting device. The cylindrical mouthpiece attached to the heated aroma source together with the aroma source is placed in the heated aroma source. The fragrance cartridge is characterized by being housed in an exterior member.

[0068] This is a form unique to heated aroma cartridges that are smoked using heated smoking devices. In the case of cigarettes, almost all cigarettes have a filter at the part where the cigarette is inserted into the mouth. This filter element acts as a mouthpiece and filters out the combustion smoke. It filters out solid components and absorbs nicotine and tar to give it a mellow taste. However, heated aroma cartridges used in heated smoking devices have a heated aroma source. Without combustion, the aroma of the heated aroma source and the volatiles of the aerosol former are cooled. The smoke contains no solid components and is free of aromatic materials. It contains little or no tobacco plant material, so it is low in nicotine and tar, and is safe for mice. The mouthpiece does not require a filter function. The smoker holds the cigarette in his mouth and smokes without feeling the heat from the heat source, and the cigarette is heated by the lips and tongue. If the cylindrical or columnar body has a good feel and is moderately hard, making it easy to hold, and has a gas flow path, There is no particular limitation. Therefore, the heated aroma cartridge of the present invention can be used to You can enjoy a pleasant smoking experience in minutes.

[0069] However, when smoking, the aroma-emitting substrate and the aroma-emitting source are heated. It is necessary to prevent the smoke from moving towards the mouthpiece, and to fully prevent the fluctuation of the smoke that enhances the enjoyment of smoking. Therefore, the cylindrical exterior member of the heated aroma cartridge is The heated aroma source is attached to the cylindrical mouthpiece, which is a space between the mouthpiece and the heated aroma source. A support member that prevents the thermal aroma generating substrate and the heated aroma generating source from moving toward the mouthpiece. The cooling of the volatiles in the aerosol former promotes the generation of aerosol, i.e., smoke. Furthermore, taking into consideration the habits of cigarette lovers, It is preferable that a filter member is provided.

[0070] The structure of such a support member is such that it has a surface that is in contact with the heated aroma source and through which gas passes, and It is limited to those that support the above and have at least a gas flow path such as a through hole. In addition, the structure of such a cooling member has a gas flow path with a large contact area with the volatile matter. Examples of such porous materials include open-cell porous materials and honeycomb structures. However, the present invention is not limited to the above.

[0071] The material is not particularly limited, but the support member may be made of paper or plastic. Materials such as rubber, wood, metal, and ceramic can be used, and they can be molded into various shapes. It is more preferable that the material is a processable plastic. The resin may be either a resin or a thermosetting resin, and may be a polyolefin resin, a polyester resin, or the like. Resin, polystyrene resin, nylon resin, acrylic resin, silicone resin, fluorine resin, polyurethane resin, ethylene vinyl acetate (EVA) resin, phenolic resin Fat, amino resin, ABS resin, and biodegradable plastics can be used, but the final Therefore, from the viewpoint of protecting the natural environment, poly(3-hydroxybutyrate) ) (PHB), poly(ε-caprolactone) (PCL), poly(butylene succinate) (PBS) and biodegradable plastics such as polylactic acid (PLA) are preferred. .

[0072] In the case of cooling materials, metal compounds and the like with excellent thermal conductivity are preferable, but they are poor in formability and require high It is a polyolefin-based material that is inexpensive and therefore has poor thermal conductivity, but is excellent in productivity and cost. Resin, polyester resin, polystyrene resin, nylon resin, acrylic resin, Silicone resin, fluorine resin, polyurethane resin, EVA resin, phenolic resin, Amino resin, ABS resin, and biodegradable plastics can be used, but they are environmentally friendly. From a protection perspective, biodegradable plastics such as PHB, PCL, PBS, and PLA It is desirable that:

[0073] As is clear from such a structure and material, the support member and the cooling member each have a cooling function. The mouthpiece also functions as a support member and a cooling member. The support member and the filter member are arranged in this order in the longitudinal direction from the heated aroma source side. It is more preferable to have it deployed, as it can combine the functions of both.

[0074] However, as mentioned above, almost all cigarettes are equipped with a filter element, The habits of cigarette smokers are extremely important, and at least the ones with filters are The filter element is preferably attached to the heated aroma source. It can function as a support member and a cooling member as well as a support member and a cooling member, so it can be used alone. In this case, the entire mouthpiece that is attached to the heated aroma source is filled with the The form in which the filter member is filled is simple, and the functions of the filter member, support member, and cooling member are This is more preferable because it allows the function to be effectively expressed.

[0075] Such filter members are made of cellulose acetate, which has been used in conventional cigarettes. Plain filter using activated carbon fiber, dual chaco with activated carbon in the plain filter AFT (Advanced Filter) with uneven surface Typical cigarette filters such as the r Technology can be used. However, as long as the filter has the breathability required for smoking, there are no restrictions on the type of fiber or structure. From the viewpoint of protecting the natural environment, plant fibers such as hemp and wood, as well as PHB, Filter materials made from biodegradable plastic fibers such as PCL, PBS, and PLA. It is preferable that the composition contains a fragrance and a microcellular fragrance. .

[0076] In this way, the filter member provided separately in the mouthpiece is attached to the heated aroma source. When the aroma-generating substrate and the aroma-generating material are in contact with each other, the aroma-generating material functions as a support member. The source may clog the filter element, so the heated aroma source and the filter element It is preferable that at least one of a support member and a cooling member is interposed between the support member and the cooling member. The aroma-emitting material or cooling member is also a heated aroma-emitting substrate and a heated aroma-emitting material from the heated aroma-emitting source to the mouthpiece side. To maximize the function of preventing the movement of the heated aroma source, It is preferable to contact.

[0077] Furthermore, it has all the functions required of a mouthpiece and these functions are expressed effectively. The mouthpiece comprises at least a support member, a cooling member, and a filter member. The support member, the cooling member, and the filter member are arranged in the longitudinal direction from the heated aroma source side. It is more preferable that they are arranged in this order.

[0078] On the other hand, a mouthpiece is attached to the longitudinal direction of the heated aroma source, and a cylindrical body A heated aroma cartridge is housed in an exterior member. The cartridge includes a heated aroma source, a support member constituting a mouthpiece, and a cooling The cooling member and the filter member are wrapped in a cylindrical mouthpiece wrapping member. This is preferably the case where the heated aroma source and the mouthpiece are If the support member, cooling member, and filter member have the same shape, they can be used as a heated aroma cartridge. This is because it is easy to store in the cartridge exterior member, improving productivity. The source of the blood is wrapped in a mouthpiece wrapping material, which greatly improves workability. As described above, the aroma-generating base material to be heated and the collapse of the aroma-generating base material to be heated are improved. This reduces the falling off and scattering of objects and dust generated by the collapsed objects.

[0079] Here, the support member, cooling member, and filter member that constitute the mouthpiece are cylindrical. There are three types of wrapping that can be done with the mouthpiece wrapping material: First, the support member, the cooling member, and the filter member are individually A form in which the mouthpiece is wrapped with a wrapping member, a second form in which the mouthpiece is wrapped with a support member and a filter member, The support member and the cooling member, and the cooling member and the filter member are attached to the mouthpiece ra Third, the support member, the cooling member, and the filter are wound around the support member, the cooling member, and the filter. The mouthpiece wrapping material is wrapped around the mouthpiece to form a single unit.

[0080] Such mouthpiece ramping members are typically used in conventional cigarettes. Examples of the paper used for wrapping include paper made from plant fibers such as hemp and wood. Unlike cigarettes, they do not burn and are made of rollable plastic. Films and the like can also be used, and there are no particular limitations on the material. General-purpose resins such as resin, polyester resin, nylon resin, EVA resin, and acrylic resin Although oil film is preferably used, from the viewpoint of protecting the natural environment, a wrapping film made of plant fiber is also used. Paper and biodegradable plastic fillers such as PHB, PCL, PBS, and PLA It is more preferable that it is a .mu.

[0081] Then, the heated aroma source is placed on the interface between the heated aroma source and the mouthpiece. The falling and scattering of the generating base material, the collapsed material of the heated aroma-generating base material, and the dust generated by the collapsed material The mesh prevents these foreign objects from entering the oral cavity by suction. This is more preferable in terms of preventing clogging of the filter member.

[0082] The mesh may include a heated aroma-generating substrate, a collapsed portion of the heated aroma-generating substrate, and a collapsed portion of the collapsed portion. A structure with openings large enough to block dust generated by objects and that does not hinder the passage of gas. There is no limitation as long as the structure and material are used. However, for example, plant fibers such as hemp and wood are also suitable. , as well as polyolefin resins, polyester resins, nylon resins. Acrylic resins It is preferable to use woven or nonwoven fabrics with excellent breathability made of synthetic fibers such as grease. From the viewpoint of protecting the natural environment, plant fibers, PHB, PCL, PBS, and PLA It is desirable that the material used be biodegradable plastic fibers such as those mentioned above.

[0083] The heated aroma generating base material and the heated aroma generating material are attached to the surface of the opposite end of the mesh of the heated aroma generating source. The debris from the aroma-generating substrate and the resulting dust fall into the heated smoking device chamber. The provision of a cover to prevent the heated smoking device from being contaminated or broken down is essential to prevent the device from being damaged or scattering. In particular, the opposite end of the mesh of the heated aroma source is preferably Since the heat source of the smoking article must be inserted, it is more preferable to provide a heat source insertion hole. preferable.

[0084] When a heat source insertion hole is provided, the cover may be made of, for example, plant fibers such as hemp and wood. Fiber, as well as polyolefin resin, polyester resin, nylon resin. Acrylic Woven and nonwoven fabrics made of synthetic fibers such as resin can be used. The openings are large enough to block the materials, the debris of the heated aroma-generating substrate, and the dust generated by the debris. There is no limitation as long as the structure and material have the function of not obstructing the passage of gas. From the viewpoint of protecting the natural environment, we use plant fibers or natural materials such as PHB, PCL, PBS, and PLA. It is desirable that the material be degradable plastic fiber. However, if there is no heat source insertion hole, In this case, the heat source and the cover come into slight contact, so the breathable material is made of plant fibers such as hemp and wood. It is preferred to use superior woven and nonwoven fabrics.

[0085] In this way, the heated aroma cartridge of the present invention is wrapped with the cylindrical heated aroma cartridge outer casing member. The cartridge is a heated aroma source that is inserted into a heated aroma cartridge housing member. Even when using the outside space as the mouthpiece, the heated aroma source and the mouthpiece are When the heated aroma source and the mouth are inserted into the thermal aroma cartridge housing, The mouthpiece, and the support member, cooling member, and filter member that constitute the mouthpiece Therefore, the heated aroma cartridge housing can be replaced. The heated aroma cartridge with the member can be replaced with various types of heated aroma sources. Not only can you enjoy a variety of smoke and aromas, but the support member, cooling member, and filter - There is no need to replace components until they deteriorate, making it economical.

[0086] The heated aroma cartridge is wrapped with the cylindrical heated aroma cartridge exterior member of the present invention. The cartridge is a cylindrically wound product that serves as the exterior member of the heated aroma cartridge. It is preferable to apply a heated aroma cartridge wrapping member that can be heated. The reason is that the heated aroma source and the heated aroma source and mouthpiece are mechanically wrapped around each other. Since the heated aroma cartridge is constructed, the productivity of the heated aroma cartridge is dramatically improved. Because it will be dramatically improved.

[0087] A typical example of such a heated aroma cartridge wrapping member is a conventional cigarette Examples include cigarette papers made from plant fibers such as hemp and wood, which are used in tobacco. However, unlike cigarettes, it does not burn, so it can be rolled up into a plastic container. Films made of rubber or the like can also be used, and there are no particular limitations on the material. Refine resin, polyester resin, nylon resin, EVA resin, acrylic resin Generally used resin films such as these are preferred, but from the viewpoint of protecting the natural environment, vegetable fiber is used as a material. and biodegradable plastics such as PHB, PCL, PBS, and PLA. However, the heated aroma cartridge wrapping part is preferably a film of If you use paper as the material and use it as a mouthpiece by itself, you should use thicker paper or You need to increase the number of turns.

[0088] In addition, the heated aroma cartridge outer casing of the cylindrical body of the heated aroma cartridge of the present invention is By using a heated aroma cartridge housing member that is a casing with a shape like a container, new advantages are obtained. In this case, the heated aroma cartridge housing member is Even if the heated aroma cartridge has a mouthpiece in a space other than the heated aroma source, The heated aroma source and the mouthpiece are mounted in the heated aroma cartridge housing member. The heated aroma cartridge to be inserted is also a wrapping material for the heated aroma cartridge. Since it does not need to be rolled up like a heated aroma source and a mouthpiece, It is now easier to replace the support member, cooling member, and filter member that make up the piece. It becomes easier.

[0089] To fully realize these advantages, the heated aroma source and mouthpiece, The support member, cooling member, and filter member that make up the mouthpiece are inserted and removed. The heated structure and material have mechanical strength and low coefficient of friction that can be repeatedly used. The incense cartridge housing is required. Paper is used as the material for this housing. When using a material such as plastic, wood, or metal, a desired thickness is required to ensure mechanical strength. It is preferable to use ceramics or the like because it can be made thinner. Considering processing, plastic, wood, metal, and ceramic are more suitable than paper. It is more preferable that the material be a plastic material, which has excellent moldability. The plastic may be either a thermoplastic resin or a thermosetting resin. olefin resin, polyester resin, polystyrene resin, nylon resin, acrylic Resins, silicone resins, fluorine resins, polyurethane resins, ethylene vinyl acetate ( EVA resin, phenolic resin, amino resin, ABS resin, and biodegradable plastic However, from the viewpoint of protecting the natural environment, PHB, PCL, PBS, P It is preferable that the material be a biodegradable plastic such as LA.

The technology for achieving this is a heated aroma generating source provided in a heated aroma cartridge. A thermally meltable material containing a fragrance source material and / or a fragrance agent in an aroma-generating base material, i.e., a ... The reason for this is that the heated aromatic compound of the present invention has a phase separation structure in which the powder is uniformly dispersed. In particular, the heated aroma-generating substrate of the present invention is based on a method for producing the aroma-generating substrate. A material containing at least a fragrance source material, an aerosol former, and a heat-melting substance, in which the fragrance source material does not dissolve. Since aerosol formers and thermally meltable substances have completely different chemical properties, The inventors have found that the following manufacturing method is suitable for these material properties. A method for producing the aroma-generating heated substrate will now be described in detail.

[0106] The basic method for producing the heated fragrance base material of the present invention is to heat-melt the fragrance source material and / or the fragrance agent.

Step (A-1), a crushing step ( A-2), a grinding step (A-5) for grinding the heat-melting material, and a grinding step (A-2) for grinding the material. The crushed product, or the crushed product and the aromatic agent produced in the crushing step (A-2), and the crushed product and the aromatic agent produced in the crushing step (A- 5) and the pulverized material produced in step A-6, the pulverized material produced in step A-7, and the pulverized material produced in step A-8 are compressed, sheared, and mixed. A cooling step (A-7) is performed to cool the mixture produced in the compression / shear mixing step (A-6) to below 0°C. ), and a grinding step (A-8) of grinding the mixture cooled in the cooling step (A-7). The process is characterized by the fact that a mixed powder of the fragrance source material and the heat-melting substance is produced. The cellulose fiber manufacturing process (B) consists of a squeezing process (B-1) in which fiber plants are squeezed, and a squeezing process (B -1) is crushed into a crushing process (B-2), and the fiber plant produced in the crushing process (B-2) The crushed material is boiled in a boiling process (B-3), and the boiled material produced in the boiling process (B-3) is dehydrated. Dehydration and drying process (B-4) and the dried product produced in the dehydration and drying process (B-4) The cellulose fibers are produced by the crushing step (B-5) of crushing the materials. The thermal fragrance-generating base material manufacturing process (D) is a mixed powder manufacturing process (AI), a cellulose fiber manufacturing process A mixing process (D-1) for mixing the materials produced in the material preparation process (C1) and the material preparation process (B) ), the mixture produced in the mixing process (D-1) is compressed and sheared to form a sheet. The sheet produced in the shear processing step (D-2) and the compression and shear processing step (D-2) The method includes a cutting step (D-3) to produce a heated aroma-generating substrate.

[0108] In particular, when a fragrance is contained in the thermally meltable substance, in order to make the fragrance uniformly present in the thermally meltable substance, Therefore, it is preferable to adopt the following manufacturing method: A mixed powder manufacturing process (A-II) in which a heat-melting substance is mixed, and cellulose fiber is extracted from a fiber plant. Cellulose fiber manufacturing process (B), aerosol former, molding agent, binder, preservative a material preparation step (C-II) of preparing a desired material selected from the group consisting of water and the like; The composite powder manufacturing process (A-II), the cellulose fiber manufacturing process (B), and the material preparation process (C-II) Manufacturing a heated aroma-generating substrate from the material manufactured in the method The method includes the steps of the mixed powder manufacturing step (A-II) and the mixed powder manufacturing step (D).

[0109] That is, this mixed powder manufacturing process (A-II) is a process of drying and killing the fragrance source material. Step (A-1), a crushing step ( A-2), a mixing step of mixing the heat-melting substance and the fragrance at a temperature equal to or higher than the melting temperature of the heat-melting substance ( A-3), a cooling step (A-) of cooling the mixture produced in the mixing step (A-3) to below 0°C. 4), a grinding step (A-5) for grinding the mixture cooled in the cooling step (A-4), The pulverized material produced in (A-2) and the pulverized material produced in the pulverizing step (A-5) are compressed and sheared. Compression and shear mixing process (A-6) in which the mixture is cut and mixed. A cooling step (A-7) in which the mixture is cooled to 0°C or below, and The method is characterized by including a grinding step (A-8) of grinding the mixture, and the fragrance source material / fragrance However, the cellulose fiber manufacturing process (B) is as follows: The process is the same as the cellulose fiber manufacturing process, and the heated aroma-generating substrate manufacturing process (D ) is the same basic process, except for the materials, and is the mixed powder manufacturing process (A-II) The material produced in the cellulose fiber production process (B) and the material preparation process (C-II) Mixing process (D-1) where the mixture is mixed, and the mixture produced in the mixing process (D-1) is compressed and sheared. and a compression and shear processing step (D-2) in which the mixture is formed into a sheet. 2) Manufacture of a heated aroma-emitting substrate, including a cutting step (D-3) of cutting the sheet manufactured in It is a method.

[0110] In this way, in the mixed powder manufacturing process (A-II), the heat-melting substance and the fragrance are mixed with the heat-melting substance. a mixing step (A-3) of mixing the mixture at a temperature equal to or higher than the melting temperature of the mixture; A cooling step (A-4) of cooling the mixture to below 0°C, and The aromatic agent is converted into a heat-melting substance through a grinding step (A-5) in which the mixture is ground. surely The present invention provides a method for fixing, sorbing, and Aromatic ingredients The heat of The function of the molten substance can be fully exerted.

[0111] The above-mentioned heterogeneous heated aroma-emitting base material manufacturing process (D) includes a compression and shear processing process (D-2). However, the present invention is not limited to this method. The following cast processing process (D'-2) using the paper manufacturing process is applied. It is also possible to use

[0112] That is, the heated aroma-generating base material manufacturing process (D) is the mixed powder manufacturing process (AI) or ( A-II), cellulose fiber manufacturing process (B), and material preparation process (CI) or (C- A slurry production step (D'-1) of mixing the materials produced in II) to produce a slurry; The slurry produced in the slurry production process (D'-1) is made into a sheet by papermaking, compression, and drying. Casting process (D'-2) to form the molded product into a molded product, and The method is characterized by comprising a cutting step (D-3) of cutting the produced sheet.

[0113] However, in the heated aroma-generating base material manufacturing process (D), care must be taken to avoid compression and shear. Whether through a processing process or a casting process, the melting point of the heat-melting material The temperature must not exceed the specified range. This is because the phase-separated structure of the heat-melting powder dispersed in the aroma-generating base material to be heated is destroyed.

[0114] The heated aroma-generating substrate produced by any of the above-mentioned production methods can also contain an aroma source material and / or The aromatic heat-melting powder containing the aromatic agent in the heat-melting substance is dispersed in the heated aroma-generating base material. A heated aroma-generating substrate characterized by having a separation structure formed thereon, The minimum outer diameter of the disintegrated powder is preferably 125 to 355 μm, and more preferably 150 to 300 μm. It is more preferable that the thickness is 180 to 250 μm, and even more preferable that the thickness is 180 to 250 μm. The outer diameter is determined by the thermal melting property and uniform dispersion property of the aromatic thermal melting substance. The heat-melting material containing the raw material and the fragrance is sieved and selected. If it is too large, the total surface area will be small, reducing the chances of contact with the heat source and causing the melting of the heat-melting substance. On the other hand, the outer diameter of the aromatic heat-melting powder is too small, resulting in insufficient melting and reduced volatilization of the aromatic components. If the powder is dispersed in the heated aroma-generating base material, it becomes difficult to form a sea-island structure in which the powder is uniformly dispersed. However, since the powder exists as an agglomerated mass, the melting rate upon contact with a heat source is reduced. This creates an area where the fragrance components evaporate, reducing the amount of fragrance that evaporates. [Effects of the Invention]

[0115] The aromatic heat-melting powder in which the aromatic source material and / or aromatic agent is mixed into the heat-melting substance is uniformly dispersed. The heated aroma generating source to be provided in the heated aroma cartridge has a phase separation structure. The heated aroma-generating base material produces an aerosol former that becomes smoke components, and an aroma component and These volatiles are generated sufficiently from tobacco plants, non-tobacco plants, and fragrances, It is possible to provide a heated aroma cartridge that allows smokers to enjoy the smoke and aroma to their satisfaction. It became like this.

[0116] This is due to the phase separation of the fragrance source material and / or fragrance agent from the aerosol former. Each of these is based on the effect of becoming more volatile when in contact with a heat source. In particular, the aromatic source material and / or aromatic agent that volatilizes the aromatic component by a heat source is melted in a heat-melting material. By distributing the aroma source material unevenly, the aroma source material and the aroma generating material are more easily distributed than if they were distributed throughout the entire heated aroma generating substrate. The concentration of the fragrance and / or the fragrance is locally increased, and the fragrance components are efficiently volatilized by contact with the heat source. Secondly, the high thermal fluidity of the heat-melting substance allows the The volatile components of the fragrance source material and / or fragrance agent generated in the aerosol are mixed with the aerosol former. This is due to the effect that the fragrance moves to the surface of the thermal aroma-generating substrate and volatilization is promoted. Wax and wax are preferred over aerosol formers such as glycerin and propylene glycol. The thermally fused substance has a weaker interaction with the aromatic components, so the aromatic components are released from the thermally fused substance. This is based on the effect that it is easy to get out.

[0117] On the other hand, the thermally fused material can reliably fix the fragrance source material and / or the fragrance at room temperature, and the aerosol The structure of the aroma-generating base material formed by phase separation from the foam can be stably maintained. It also has the effect of [Brief explanation of the drawings]
