Description

Preparation method of low-temperature fraction capable of enhancing aroma and reducing harm for heating cigarettes and application of low-temperature fraction in heating cigarettes

Technical Field

The invention belongs to the technical field of heating cigarettes, and particularly relates to a preparation method of low-temperature fractions capable of enhancing aroma and reducing harm for heating cigarettes and application of the low-temperature fractions in heating cigarettes.

Background

More than 6000 chemical compositions identified in the traditional cigarette smoke are reported in the literature, the chemical compositions are mainly generated by related components in tobacco through direct transfer or pyrolysis and thermal synthesis reactions, and part of harmful components can be decomposed or combined under the condition of high temperature (combustion), so that the following can be known: the emission of harmful components in the smoke can be obviously reduced by reducing the heating or combustion temperature. In addition, sidestream smoke generated after the traditional cigarette is ignited (mainly smoke escaping from the smoldering cigarette ignition end in the smoking interval period) can cause non-people to passively smoke, and the unpleasant feeling of the non-smoking people is caused.

Smokers desire to smoke cigarettes with lower harm, non-smoking people want to avoid the harm of passive smoking, and the reasons boost the generation of novel herbal products. Currently, the new types of tobacco products appearing on the market include: heating cigarettes, smokeless tobacco products, and electronic cigarettes.

The heating of non-burning tobacco product (also known as cigarette) is a new type of tobacco product which is produced by heating tobacco material with special heating source, and the nicotine and flavor substance in the tobacco material are volatilized to produce smoke to meet the requirements of smokers. Different from the traditional cigarette, the cigarette is heated without being ignited, so that the harmful components generated by high-temperature combustion and cracking of tobacco are reduced as much as possible. But the tobacco substances are not ignited, a large amount of flavor components generated by thermal synthesis and thermal cracking are reduced, and the problems of poor oral comfort, bitter feeling, insufficient aroma and the like are inevitably generated in the process of heating cigarettes for smoking.

At present, the flavor is mainly added into the heated cigarette to enrich the taste of the smoke. The tobacco part of the heated cigarette is always in a heated state (about 200-350 ℃) in the smoking process, and the additional essence and flavor are easy to volatilize and completely disappear in the first mouth and the second mouth, so that the problems of uneven taste, unstable quality and the like are caused. The taste accompanied with strong flavor and chemical smell during smoking has certain gap with the smoking quality of cigarettes. And some flavors and fragrances added in the traditional cigarette, such as macromolecular organic substances, such as raspberry ketone, thymol and dihydrocoumarin, have boiling points of more than 200 ℃, and can generate fragrance components similar to flowery scent, fruity fragrance and bean fragrance only after high temperature, and can not be completely volatilized in a heating temperature range of the heated cigarette and can not bring expected effects, so that the flavors and fragrances can not be completely transplanted into the heated cigarette for application.

The tobacco extract is an important way for adjusting the smoking taste and enhancing the performance of novel tobacco products. At present, tobacco extracts are widely applied to traditional cigarettes, but due to the difference of raw materials and the limitations of extraction processes, analysis means and use environments, most products are difficult to directly transplant into heated cigarettes to exert effects, and meanwhile, different extraction and separation means can damage heat-sensitive aroma substances to different degrees and cannot retain aroma components of the tobacco. The combination of extraction and separation processes is therefore the key to cryogenic fraction extraction.

Preferably, the mixed raw materials of the Turkish aromatic tobacco leaves and the guava leaves are crushed and sieved by a sieve with no less than 200 meshes.

Preferably, the mixed raw materials of the Turkish aromatic tobacco leaves and the guava leaves are as follows: the mass ratio of the Turkey aromatic tobacco leaves to the guava leaves is as follows: 10: 1-1: 1.

The second aspect of the invention provides the use of the low-temperature fraction described in the first aspect, wherein the low-temperature fraction is added into a heated cut tobacco formula of cigarettes in a flavoring and charging manner at a ratio of 1-5 wt% for smoking.

The low-temperature fraction is added into a formula of the heated cigarette cut tobacco, so that the aroma can be obviously rounded, the aroma can be modified, the smoking taste can be improved, the characteristic aroma style of the product can be endowed, and the harmful ingredients such as polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon in smoke can be obviously reduced.

The heated cigarette prepared by the same tobacco formula without adding guava leaves and acid-base separation treatment under the same process condition is used as a blank sample.

The aerosol inspection basis of the heated cigarette added with the low-temperature fraction and the blank sample is as follows:

GB/T23203.1-2013; GB/T19609-2004; GB/T23356-; GB/T21130-2007; GB/T23355-2009; YC/T253-2019; YC/T255-; YC/T254-; YC/T377-2019; Q/CTQ5-2010 (laboratory method for determination of tobacco-specific nitrosamines in total particulate matter of mainstream smoke). The results are shown in Table 3.

TABLE 3 comparison of the principal ingredients of the heated cigarette aerosols for the low temperature fraction and the blank

As can be seen from table 3, the low-temperature fraction obtained by extracting and separating specific tobacco leaves and guava leaves by reflux extraction and acid-base extraction can change the chemical components of the raw materials, and can be added into a heated cigarette for smoking to selectively reduce harmful components such as aldehydes, nitrogen oxides, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, N-nitrosamines, phenols and the like in the smoke of the heated cigarette. Especially, the effect on reducing polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon is obvious, benzene is reduced by 62%, and benzopyrene is reduced by 62%.

Application example 3 thermal analysis

The low-temperature fraction obtained in example 1 was diluted to 2 wt% and added to the cut tobacco formulation of cigarette heated in Yunnan China tobacco by adding flavoring and feeding to prepare the raw material, and the blank leaf group without any novel spice was used as a control.

Before sample analysis, a thermogravimetric analyzer is set to be kept for 10min at 800 ℃ so as to completely discharge impurities in the furnace body. The sensitivity of the thermobalance was 1. mu.g, with an empty crucible as reference. A typical heated cigarette tobacco material (5.00. + -. 0.05) mg was weighed into a hot platinum crucible. At the air flow rate of 80mL/min, the temperature rising programs are respectively as follows: 30 ℃ 10 ℃/min 800 ℃ (10 min).

FIG. 2 is a thermal analysis curve of a control sample at a temperature rise rate of 10 ℃/min and an air flow rate of 80 mL/min. As can be seen from the figure, the thermal weight loss is divided into four stages: firstly, the weight loss is 19.62 percent at the temperature of 50-237 ℃, which is a first weight loss stage; 243-352 ℃ weightlessness is 28.96 percent, which is the second weightlessness stage and has the most weightlessness; and 382 and 487 ℃ weight loss is 25.14 percent, which is a third weight loss stage. 568 and 734 ℃ weight loss of 4.74 percent are the fourth weight loss stage.

FIG. 3 is a thermal analysis curve of the low temperature flavor additive sample obtained in example 1 under the same conditions. As can be seen from fig. 3, the thermal weight loss is divided into five stages: firstly, the weight loss is 16.35 percent at the temperature of 28-78 ℃, which is a first weight loss stage; ② the second weight loss stage, weight loss 11.28% at 80-148 ℃. ③ 150 plus 292 ℃ weightlessness is 37.06 percent, which is the third weightlessness stage, the weightlessness is the most and more violent, a larger peak is also presented on the DTG curve, and the highest value is reached at 226.39 ℃; 293 and 360 ℃ weight loss of 20.42 percent, which is the fourth weight loss stage, the weight loss at the stage is most severe, and a large and sharp peak is formed in the figure. 470-500 deg.C weight loss 5.03%, as the fifth weight loss stage.

(1) The difference between the sample added with the low-temperature perfume and the control sample is that the thermal weight loss is increased from four stages to five stages, the thermal weight loss is larger from the second stage and the third stage to the third stage and the fourth stage, but the maximum weight loss temperature is obviously reduced.

(2) The control sample had a total weight loss of 54.1% from 243-487 ℃ in the main weight loss stage (two-and three-stage). After the sample added with the low-temperature spice, the first weight loss stage is obviously advanced, and is added with a weight loss stage compared with a reference sample, and the second weight loss stage (the weight loss is 11.28 percent at 80-148 ℃) indicates that some volatile small molecular substances are added and can be volatilized at a lower temperature. The main weight loss stages (three and four stages) are 150-360 ℃ weight loss of 57.48 percent, and firstly, the temperature moves to a lower range and almost falls within the working temperature range of heating the cigarette smoking set; and secondly, the pyrolysis substances are more, which shows that after the low-temperature spice is added, more substances are pyrolyzed and volatilized in the working temperature range of heating cigarettes, the smoke chemical substances are added, so that the smoke substances are fuller and richer, the aroma can be obviously rounded, the aroma can be modified, the smoking taste can be improved, the characteristic aroma style of the product is endowed, and the aroma enhancement effect is realized to the maximum extent.

The above sensory expression on aspiration is:

the control heated cigarette is extremely easy to volatilize a plurality of flavor substances before smoking in the smoking process, so that the taste is uneven and the quality is unstable. The sample added with the low-temperature spice has more flavor substances which are uniformly volatilized in the whole smoking process, and the uniformity and the stability of aroma release in the smoking process can be ensured.
