Description

A kind of pine flower essence for cigarette popping beads and its application in cigarettes

technical field

The invention belongs to the technical field of cigarette filter rod production, and in particular relates to a patent application for a pine flower essence for cigarette popping beads and its application in cigarettes.

Background technique

In the traditional cigarette flavoring technology, the flavor liquid is mainly added to the cut tobacco. The material liquid added in this way is often lost during the combustion process of the cigarette. The feed liquid also produces some bad sensory effects. As an emerging cigarette flavoring method, popped beads flavoring can overcome the shortcomings of the existing flavoring methods to a certain extent. The main reason is that the popped beads contain flavors. The explosive beads in the filter rod reburn the cigarette. At this time, when the smoke passes through the filter tip, it acts on the consumer together with the exploding beads material liquid, thereby completing the process of adding flavor and fragrance; on the one hand, this method can effectively avoid the aroma and flavor in the tobacco burning process. On the other hand, since the flavor is placed in the sealed explosive beads, the loss will not occur during the storage of the cigarette, thus ensuring the stability of the cigarette quality.

As a new material in cigarettes, "popping beads" have more and more prominent functions in supplementing, improving, and coordinating the quality of cigarette smoking and improving, changing, and cigarette product style due to the special release method of their contents. Therefore, in recent years, "popping beads" cigarettes are being used more and more in the production of Chinese-style cigarettes, and they are also loved by consumers.

In the prior art, although there are a certain number of popping beads cigarettes on the market, the fragrance in the popping beads is relatively poor in coordination with the smoke due to the lack of targeted design, and has an impact on the aroma characteristics of the cigarette itself. Larger, thus affecting the smoking experience of the explosive bead cigarette.

Although "popping beads" cigarettes have sprung up like mushrooms after a rain, due to their relatively novel products, the current production standards and specifications are relatively lacking, so there have been many new issues in the addition and use of "popping beads". Especially in view of the particularity of cigarette products, in terms of the design of the "explosive bead" content formulation, the stable release of the content, and the impact of the "explosive bead" filter rod on the physical, chemical, and hazard indices of cigarettes, etc. Rarely reported. Therefore, the contents of "explosive beads" with different compositions are designed, and the release rules of special "explosive beads" are systematically studied, and the influence of "explosive beads" contents on the physical indicators, smoke indicators, and hazard indexes of cigarettes, etc. It has important theoretical and practical significance.
