卷烟烟丝食用蜡复配保润剂的保润性能及应用

选取食用蜡、AJ多糖单体以及复配样品进行保润性能试验,对其在低湿环境下的烟丝保润性能进行了评价。研究表明,食用蜡及AJ多糖单体均对烟丝保润有一定效果,植物蜡1单体的保润性能优于其它食用蜡;将食用蜡与多糖复配,通过两者的协调效应使烟丝的保润性能进一步改善。扫描电镜表征发现,食用蜡—多糖复配保润剂不仅具有常用保润剂的作用,同时还可以在叶片表面形成一层较为致密的保护膜,并对烟丝切面的细胞间隙进行填充堵塞,进而增大了烟丝内外水分的传质阻力,证实了食用蜡—多糖复配保润剂的保润效果及作用原理。评吸结果表明,食用蜡—多糖复配保润剂应用于卷烟后增加了卷烟舒适性,减少了烟气刺激性,抽吸品质优于对照卷烟。

Retain moisture properties of tobacco recombination humectant of edible wax and its application

The edible wax, AJ polysaccharide monomer and recombination samples were selected for the moisture retention test to evaluate the moisturizing property of tobacco in low humidity environment. The results showed that the edible wax and AJ polysaccharide monomer both had certain effect on the moisture of tobacco. The moisturizing property of plant wax 1 was better than that of other edible wax. When the edible wax and AJ polysaccharide monomer were compounded, the moisturizing performance of the tobacco was further improved by the coordination effect of the two samples. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) revealed that besides the effect of traditional humectant, the edible wax-polysaccharide recombination humectant could change the surface structure of the tobacco and form a compact protective film on the surface of the tobacco leaf, while filling and blocking the tobacco surface and cut surface. Thus increasing the mass transfer resistance of water inside and outside the tobacco, confirmed the moisturizing effect and principle of action of edible wax-polysaccharide recombination humectant. The sensory evaluation results showed that edible wax-polysaccharide recombination humectant was applied to cigarette to increase cigarette comfort performance, reduce smoke irritation, and the quality of smoking was better than that of controlled cigarette.
