Description
本発明は、香料担持シガレット構成部材およびそれを含むシガレットに関する。
The present invention relates to a fragrance-carrying cigarette constituent member and a cigarette including the same.
メンソール等の揮発性を有する香料成分は、溶液状態でたばこ刻に添加されると、長期間の蔵置において香料成分が散逸してしまい、香料効果が持続しないという問題がある。この問題を解決するために、これまでに種々の報告が為されている。
When a fragrance ingredient having volatility such as menthol is added in a tobacco state in a solution state, the fragrance ingredient is dissipated in storage for a long period of time, and there is a problem that the fragrance effect is not sustained. In order to solve this problem, various reports have been made so far.
燃焼部であるたばこ刻またはそれを被包する巻紙に香料成分を配置させた例として、特許文献1~3が報告されている。
Patent Documents 1 to 3 have been reported as examples in which a fragrance component is arranged on a cigarette that is a burning part or a wrapping paper that encloses it.
特許文献1は、香料成分がグルカン分子の三次元網目構造の内部に取り込まれた香料素材を、たばこ充填材を被包する巻紙に塗布することを開示する。特許文献1のシガレットは、香料成分をグルカン分子の三次元網目構造の内部に取り込んで固定、保持するため、保香性が良い。しかし、香料成分は、グルカン分子内に比較的少ない量(20重量%以下)で存在するため、メンソールなどの比較的多くの添加量を必要とする香料成分の場合、香料素材のシガレットへの配合量が多量になる。
Patent Document 1 discloses that a fragrance material in which a fragrance component is incorporated in a three-dimensional network structure of glucan molecules is applied to a wrapping paper enclosing a tobacco filler. Since the cigarette of patent document 1 takes in a fragrance | flavor component in the inside of the three-dimensional network structure of a glucan molecule, it fixes and hold | maintains it, and its fragrance retention property is good. However, since the fragrance component is present in a relatively small amount (20% by weight or less) in the glucan molecule, in the case of a fragrance component that requires a relatively large addition amount such as menthol, the fragrance material is added to the cigarette. The amount becomes large.
特許文献2は、液体香料とカラギーナンゾルとを混合してイオン溶液(カリウムイオンを含む溶液)に滴下して粒状ゲルを調製し、これを空気中で乾燥させることで「180℃まで安定な安定化芳香物質」を調製することを開示する。しかし、特許文献2の方法は、粒状ゲルを空気中で乾燥させるため、大量の素材を調製するためには長い時間および大きな設備を必要とする。

Specifically, in the present invention, the cigarette constituent member is a constituent member that is disposed at a position that does not contact the smoker's mouth or oral cavity when incorporated into the cigarette, in other words, the cigarette constituent member is a cigarette. It is a structural member that is arranged at a position where, when incorporated, a fragrance such as menthol can be delivered together with mainstream smoke by combustion during smoking.
より具体的には、シガレット構成部材は、たばこ充填材、またはたばこ巻紙である。更に具体的には、たばこ充填材は、たばこ刻またはシートたばこである。
More specifically, the cigarette constituent member is a tobacco filler or a cigarette paper. More specifically, the tobacco filler is tobacco or sheet tobacco.
メンソール含有組成物をシガレット構成部材に適用する手法は、メンソール含有組成物(スラリー)を均一にシガレット構成部材に適用できれば特に限定されず、メンソール含有組成物(スラリー)をシガレット構成部材の表面に添加したり塗工したりしてもよいし、メンソール含有組成物(スラリー)をシガレット構成部材の表面に噴霧してもよいし、シガレット構成部材をメンソール含有組成物(スラリー)中に浸漬してもよい。
The method of applying the menthol-containing composition to the cigarette component is not particularly limited as long as the menthol-containing composition (slurry) can be uniformly applied to the cigarette component, and the menthol-containing composition (slurry) is added to the surface of the cigarette component The menthol-containing composition (slurry) may be sprayed on the surface of the cigarette constituent member, or the cigarette constituent member may be immersed in the menthol-containing composition (slurry). Good.
たばこ刻にメンソール含有組成物のスラリー(約60~90℃、ゾル状態)を適用する場合、移送ポンプによりメンソール含有組成物(スラリー)をたばこ刻表面に直接添加したり、ノズル煙霧機によりたばこ刻に噴霧したりする手法が採用できる。あるいは、たばこ刻へのメンソール含有組成物(スラリー)の適用は、たばこ刻を、メンソール含有組成物のスラリーに浸漬させてもよい。
When applying a slurry of a menthol-containing composition (about 60 to 90 ° C. in a sol state) to the cigarette, the menthol-containing composition (slurry) is directly added to the tobacco surface by a transfer pump, or a cigarette is cut by a nozzle smoker. A method of spraying on the surface can be adopted. Alternatively, application of the menthol-containing composition (slurry) to the tobacco cut may immerse the tobacco in a slurry of the menthol-containing composition.
シートたばこにメンソール組成物のスラリー(約60~90℃、ゾル状態)を適用する場合、シートたばこ表面へスリットフィーダーにより押し出し添加する手法や、フィルムアプリケーターなどによる塗工などの手法が採用できる。あるいは、たばこ刻への適用と同じ手法に従って、噴霧や浸漬などの手法も採用できる。
When applying a slurry of menthol composition (about 60 to 90 ° C., sol state) to the sheet tobacco, a method of extruding and adding to the surface of the sheet tobacco with a slit feeder, or a coating method using a film applicator or the like can be employed. Alternatively, a technique such as spraying or dipping may be employed in accordance with the same technique as that applied to tobacco.
たばこ巻紙にメンソール含有組成物のスラリー(約60~90℃、ゾル状態)を適用する場合、上述のとおり、スリットフィーダーにより押し出し添加する手法やフィルムアプリケーターなどによる塗工する手法が採用できる。あるいは、たばこ刻への適用と同じ手法に従って、噴霧や浸漬などの手法も採用できる。
When applying a menthol-containing composition slurry (about 60 to 90 ° C., sol state) to tobacco wrapping paper, as described above, a method of extruding and adding with a slit feeder or a method of applying with a film applicator can be employed. Alternatively, a technique such as spraying or dipping may be employed in accordance with the same technique as that applied to tobacco.
たばこ刻の場合、メンソール含有組成物のスラリーの適用量は、たばこ刻100重量部に対し、5~40重量部とすることができ、好ましくは15~25重量部とすることができる。シートたばこの場合、メンソール含有組成物のスラリーの適用量は、シートたばこ100重量部に対し、50~400重量部とすることができ、好ましくは100~200重量部とすることができる。たばこ巻紙の場合、メンソール含有組成物のスラリーの適用量は、たばこ巻紙100重量部に対し、10~70重量部とすることができ、好ましくは30~50重量部とすることができる。
In the case of tobacco engraving, the application amount of the slurry of the menthol-containing composition can be 5 to 40 parts by weight, preferably 15 to 25 parts by weight with respect to 100 parts by weight of the cigarette. In the case of sheet tobacco, the application amount of the slurry of the menthol-containing composition can be 50 to 400 parts by weight, preferably 100 to 200 parts by weight, per 100 parts by weight of sheet tobacco. In the case of tobacco wrapping paper, the amount of the menthol-containing composition slurry applied can be 10 to 70 parts by weight, preferably 30 to 50 parts by weight, per 100 parts by weight of tobacco wrapping paper.
メンソール含有組成物のスラリーが適用されたシガレット構成部材は、乾燥させる前に、メンソール含有組成物のスラリーが十分にゲル化し(40℃以下)、かつ一般にエマルジョンが氷結して破壊されない温度(0℃以上)、すなわち0~40℃、好ましくは0~30℃、より好ましくは15~25℃になるように一旦冷却することが好ましい。ここで冷却前のメンソール含有組成物のスラリーは、60~90℃、好ましくは75~85℃の温度を有し、ゾルの状態にある。かかる予備冷却は、メンソール含有組成物のスラリーが適用されたシガレット構成部材に、単なる送風もしくはスポットクーラー(例えばスイデン SS-25DD-1)により発生させた冷風(例えば10℃)を2~3分間あてることにより行うことができる。あるいは、予備冷却は、メンソール含有組成物のスラリーが適用されたシガレット構成部材を、冷温水発生器(チラー、例えば(株)アピステ PCU-1600R)で発生させた冷媒(例えば10℃)を通した管に1~2分間接触させることにより行ってもよい。あるいは、予備冷却は、メンソール含有組成物のスラリーが適用されたシガレット構成部材を、室温に放置することにより行ってもよい。
The cigarette component to which the slurry of the menthol-containing composition is applied has a temperature (0 ° C.) at which the slurry of the menthol-containing composition is sufficiently gelled (40 ° C. or lower) and generally the emulsion does not freeze and break before drying. In other words, it is preferable that the temperature is once cooled to 0 to 40 ° C., preferably 0 to 30 ° C., more preferably 15 to 25 ° C. Here, the slurry of the menthol-containing composition before cooling has a temperature of 60 to 90 ° C., preferably 75 to 85 ° C., and is in a sol state. In such precooling, a cigarette constituent member to which a slurry of a menthol-containing composition is applied is applied with a simple air blow or a cold air (eg, 10 ° C.) generated by a spot cooler (eg, suiden SS-25DD-1) for 2 to 3 minutes. Can be done. Alternatively, the pre-cooling is performed by passing a cigarette constituent member to which the slurry of the menthol-containing composition is applied through a refrigerant (for example, 10 ° C.) generated by a cold / hot water generator (chiller, for example, Apiste PCU-1600R). This may be done by contacting the tube for 1-2 minutes. Alternatively, the precooling may be performed by leaving the cigarette constituent member to which the slurry of the menthol-containing composition is applied at room temperature.
本発明で用いられる多糖類の水溶液は、一旦冷却してゲル化すると、その後、温度を上昇させても、ゲルに転移した温度でも容易にはゾル化せず、ゲル化状態を維持することができるという性質を有する(後述の実施例を参照)。かかる性質を利用して、メンソール含有組成物のスラリーを乾燥させる前に予備冷却を行うと、予備冷却後の未乾燥メンソール含有組成物は、乾燥時に温度を上昇させても、そこに含まれる多糖類がゾル化しにくく、かかる多糖類で被覆されたメンソールは、特に揮散されにくい。このように本発明では、予備冷却のおかげで、その後の乾燥工程でメンソール含有組成物を熱に晒すことが可能になり、これにより、短時間での乾燥を実現することができる。
Once the polysaccharide aqueous solution used in the present invention is cooled and gelled, it can be maintained in a gelled state, even if the temperature is raised, and it does not easily sol even at the temperature at which the gel is transferred. It has the property that it can be performed (see the examples described later). If precooling is performed before drying the slurry of the menthol-containing composition by utilizing such properties, the undried menthol-containing composition after the precooling is contained in a large amount even if the temperature is increased during drying. Saccharides are difficult to sol, and menthol coated with such polysaccharides is particularly difficult to volatilize. Thus, in the present invention, thanks to the preliminary cooling, it becomes possible to expose the menthol-containing composition to heat in the subsequent drying step, and thereby, drying in a short time can be realized.
メンソール含有組成物が適用されたシガレット構成部材の加熱乾燥は、熱風乾燥、赤外線加熱乾燥などの任意の加熱乾燥手段により行うことができる。
The cigarette constituent member to which the menthol-containing composition is applied can be heated and dried by any heating and drying means such as hot air drying or infrared heat drying.
シガレット構成部材に適用されたメンソール含有組成物の乾燥は、試料温度が全乾燥工程において100℃以下、好ましくは70~100℃に保たれるように行うことができる。100℃以下の試料温度を維持するためには、好ましくは100℃~130℃の乾燥温度を採用することができる。70~100℃の試料温度を維持するためには、好ましくは100℃~130℃の乾燥温度を採用することができる。ここで「試料温度」は、乾燥工程におけるメンソール含有組成物の表面の温度を意味し、「乾燥温度」は、乾燥機内の温度を指し、熱風乾燥の場合、乾燥機内の温度は、熱風温度と同じである。
The drying of the menthol-containing composition applied to the cigarette constituent member can be performed so that the sample temperature is kept at 100 ° C. or less, preferably 70 to 100 ° C. in the entire drying process. In order to maintain a sample temperature of 100 ° C. or lower, a drying temperature of preferably 100 ° C. to 130 ° C. can be employed. In order to maintain a sample temperature of 70 to 100 ° C., a drying temperature of 100 to 130 ° C. can be preferably used. Here, “sample temperature” means the temperature of the surface of the menthol-containing composition in the drying step, and “drying temperature” refers to the temperature in the dryer. In the case of hot air drying, the temperature in the dryer is the hot air temperature. The same.
好ましくは、乾燥は、100℃以上の乾燥温度(好ましくは100℃~130℃)で全乾燥時間の1/4以上の時間をかけて乾燥させることを含み、20分以下の全乾燥時間で、香料担持シガレット構成部材が10%未満の水分含量を有する状態になるまで行うことができる。好ましくは、100℃以上の乾燥温度での乾燥は、最初の乾燥時に行い、その後、最初の乾燥温度と同じ温度または最初の乾燥温度より低い温度(好ましくは70℃以上100℃未満)で乾燥させる。
Preferably, the drying includes drying at a drying temperature of 100 ° C. or higher (preferably 100 ° C. to 130 ° C.) over a quarter of the total drying time, with a total drying time of 20 minutes or less, This can be done until the perfume-carrying cigarette component has a moisture content of less than 10%. Preferably, drying at a drying temperature of 100 ° C. or higher is performed at the time of the initial drying, and then dried at the same temperature as the initial drying temperature or lower than the initial drying temperature (preferably 70 ° C. or higher and lower than 100 ° C.). .
乾燥温度は、試料温度が全乾燥工程で常時100℃以下となるようにした上で、乾燥工程全体にわたって一定の温度であってもよいし、乾燥工程の間に変化させてもよい。乾燥温度を変化させる場合、好ましくは、乾燥は、100℃以上の高温の乾燥温度での初期乾燥とその後の100℃未満の低温の乾燥温度での後期乾燥により行う。本明細書において「初期乾燥」は、100℃以上の高温を使用した、乾燥工程の最初の乾燥を意味し、「後期乾燥」は、100℃未満の低温を使用した、初期乾燥に続く乾燥を意味する。このように高温での初期乾燥と低温での後期乾燥を組み合わせて行うと、試料温度が高温になりすぎず、全乾燥工程において試料温度が常時100℃以下であり、且つ、乾燥時間を短縮できるという利点を有する。
The drying temperature may be a constant temperature throughout the entire drying process or may be changed during the drying process after the sample temperature is always 100 ° C. or lower in the entire drying process. When changing the drying temperature, the drying is preferably performed by initial drying at a high drying temperature of 100 ° C. or higher and subsequent drying at a low drying temperature of less than 100 ° C. As used herein, “initial drying” means the initial drying of the drying process using a high temperature of 100 ° C. or higher, and “late drying” refers to the drying following the initial drying using a low temperature of less than 100 ° C. means. When the initial drying at a high temperature and the late drying at a low temperature are combined in this way, the sample temperature does not become too high, the sample temperature is always 100 ° C. or lower in the entire drying process, and the drying time can be shortened. Has the advantage.
更に好ましくは、乾燥は、
100℃以上の乾燥温度で全乾燥時間の1/4以上の時間をかけた初期乾燥、その後、
100℃未満の乾燥温度で全乾燥時間の1/4以上の時間をかけた後期乾燥
により行い、20分以下の全乾燥時間で、香料担持シガレット構成部材が、所定の水分含量になるまで(具体的には、たばこ刻にメンソール含有組成物を適用した香料担持シガレット構成部材では12重量%程度以下の水分含量になるまで、シートたばこやたばこ巻紙にメンソール含有組成を適用した香料担持シガレット構成部材では10重量%程度以下の水分含量になるまで)行うことができる。 More preferably, the drying is
Initial drying over a quarter of the total drying time at a drying temperature of 100 ° C. or higher, then
It is carried out by late drying at a drying temperature of less than 100 ° C. over a quarter of the total drying time, and until the perfume-carrying cigarette component has a predetermined moisture content in a total drying time of 20 minutes or less (specifically Specifically, in the fragrance-carrying cigarette component in which the menthol-containing composition is applied to the sheet cigarette and the cigarette paper until the moisture content is about 12% by weight or less in the fragrance-carrying cigarette component in which the menthol-containing composition is applied to the cigarette, Up to a water content of about 10% by weight or less).
100℃以上の乾燥温度で全乾燥時間の1/4以上の時間をかけた初期乾燥、その後、
100℃未満の乾燥温度で全乾燥時間の1/4以上の時間をかけた後期乾燥
により行い、20分以下の全乾燥時間で、香料担持シガレット構成部材が、所定の水分含量になるまで(具体的には、たばこ刻にメンソール含有組成物を適用した香料担持シガレット構成部材では12重量%程度以下の水分含量になるまで、シートたばこやたばこ巻紙にメンソール含有組成を適用した香料担持シガレット構成部材では10重量%程度以下の水分含量になるまで)行うことができる。 More preferably, the drying is
Initial drying over a quarter of the total drying time at a drying temperature of 100 ° C. or higher, then
It is carried out by late drying at a drying temperature of less than 100 ° C. over a quarter of the total drying time, and until the perfume-carrying cigarette component has a predetermined moisture content in a total drying time of 20 minutes or less (specifically Specifically, in the fragrance-carrying cigarette component in which the menthol-containing composition is applied to the sheet cigarette and the cigarette paper until the moisture content is about 12% by weight or less in the fragrance-carrying cigarette component in which the menthol-containing composition is applied to the cigarette, Up to a water content of about 10% by weight or less).
このように、高温での初期乾燥と低温での後期乾燥を組み合わせて行うことにより、本発明の香料担持シガレット構成部材は、作製後に特に高いメンソール含有量を有しているとともに、蔵置後においてもメンソール含有量を特に高い値で維持することが可能である。
In this way, by performing a combination of initial drying at high temperature and late drying at low temperature, the flavor-carrying cigarette component of the present invention has a particularly high menthol content after production, and even after storage. It is possible to maintain the menthol content at a particularly high value.
熱風乾燥による乾燥の場合、初期乾燥は、たとえば100℃以上130℃以下の熱風温度で4~6分行うことができ、後期乾燥は、たとえば70℃以上100℃未満の熱風温度で4~6分行うことができる。熱風の風量は、たとえば3~20m/秒とすることができる。全乾燥時間は、20分以下であり、好ましくは10~18分である。
In the case of drying by hot air drying, initial drying can be performed at a hot air temperature of, for example, 100 ° C. or higher and 130 ° C. or lower for 4 to 6 minutes, and late drying is performed at a hot air temperature of, for example, 70 ° C. or higher and lower than 100 ° C. for 4 to 6 minutes. It can be carried out. The amount of hot air can be set to 3 to 20 m / second, for example. The total drying time is 20 minutes or less, preferably 10 to 18 minutes.
初期乾燥および後期乾燥の条件(温度、時間および風量)は、たとえば、上記範囲内で適宜設定することができる。
The conditions for initial drying and late drying (temperature, time, and air volume) can be appropriately set within the above range, for example.
初期乾燥の間の乾燥温度は、一定であってもよいし、100℃以上130℃以下の間で、順次低下するように変化させてもよい。また、後期乾燥の間の乾燥温度も、一定であってもよいし、70℃以上100℃未満の間で、順次低下するように変化させてもよい。たとえば、後述の実施例で使用した乾燥機は、3つの乾燥室を有し、第1室→第2室→第3室の順に試料がベルトコンベヤで運ばれるため、第1室および第2室を同じまたは異なる温度で初期乾燥(100℃以上)のために使用し、第3室を後期乾燥(100℃未満)のために使用してもよいし、第1室を初期乾燥(100℃以上)のために使用し、第2室および第3室を同じまたは異なる温度で後期乾燥(100℃未満)のために使用してもよい。
The drying temperature during the initial drying may be constant, or may be changed so as to decrease sequentially between 100 ° C. and 130 ° C. Further, the drying temperature during the late drying may be constant, or may be changed so as to sequentially decrease between 70 ° C. and less than 100 ° C. For example, the dryer used in the examples described later has three drying chambers, and the sample is conveyed by the belt conveyor in the order of the first chamber → the second chamber → the third chamber. May be used for initial drying (above 100 ° C.) at the same or different temperatures, the third chamber may be used for late drying (below 100 ° C.), or the first chamber may be used for initial drying (above 100 ° C.). ) And the second and third chambers may be used for late drying (less than 100 ° C.) at the same or different temperatures.
乾燥は、好ましくは、香料担持シガレット構成部材の水分含量が、所定の水分含量になるまで(具体的には、たばこ刻にメンソール含有組成物を適用した香料担持シガレット構成部材では12重量%程度以下になるまで、シートたばこやたばこ巻紙にメンソール含有組成を適用した香料担持シガレット構成部材では10重量%程度以下になるまで)行う。ここでの水分含量は、後述の実施例に記載の測定方法で測定される値を指す。
The drying is preferably performed until the moisture content of the flavor-carrying cigarette component reaches a predetermined moisture content (specifically, about 12% by weight or less in the flavor-carrying cigarette component in which the menthol-containing composition is applied to the tobacco). Until it becomes about 10% by weight or less in the case of a fragrance-carrying cigarette constituent member in which a menthol-containing composition is applied to a sheet tobacco or a cigarette paper. The water content here refers to a value measured by the measurement method described in the examples described later.

コントロールについては、本発明の香料担持たばこ刻の代わりに、メンソール含有シートの裁刻物(国際公開2009/142159)をたばこ刻に2重量%の割合で配合して、タール値を揃えて試料シガレットを作成した。この試料シガレットの主流煙中メンソール量は、本発明の香料担持たばこ刻を用いたシガレットとほぼ同等の、一本当0.4mgとなった。
For the control, instead of the fragrance-carrying cigarette of the present invention, a cut sample of menthol-containing sheet (International Publication 2009/142159) is blended in the cigarette at a ratio of 2% by weight, and the sample cigarette is aligned with the tar value. It was created. The amount of menthol in the mainstream smoke of this sample cigarette was 0.4 mg, which is almost equivalent to the cigarette using the flavor-carrying cigarette of the present invention.
メンソール含有シートを、たばこ刻と同等の形状に裁刻してたばこ刻に配合した場合の、シガレット間のばらつき(CV%)は34%であり、シガレット内のばらつきは54%であった。このばらつきはメンソール含有シート配合率が低いことに起因し、メンソール含有シート配合率が10重量%以上であれば、ばらつき(CV%)は10%程度まで低下する。一方、本発明の香料担持たばこ刻を用いてシガレットを調製した場合、シガレット間のばらつきおよびシガレット内のばらつきのいずれも、コントロールと比べてその値は顕著に低下した。
When the menthol-containing sheet was cut into a shape equivalent to that of cigarettes and blended into cigarettes, the variation between cigarettes (CV%) was 34%, and the variation within the cigarettes was 54%. This variation is caused by the low menthol-containing sheet content. If the menthol-containing sheet content is 10% by weight or more, the variation (CV%) decreases to about 10%. On the other hand, when cigarettes were prepared using the fragrance-carrying cigarette of the present invention, the values of both variations between cigarettes and within cigarettes were significantly reduced compared to controls.
これらの結果から、メンソール含有シートの裁刻物をたばこ充填材として配合したシガレットより、本発明の香料担持たばこ刻を含むシガレットの方が、シガレット間のメンソール配合量のばらつきを抑えることができるとともに、シガレットロッド内に均一にメンソールを配合できることがわかる。これにより、本発明の香料担持たばこ刻を含むシガレットは、シガレット毎の香喫味の変動や、シガレット喫煙期間にわたる香喫味の変動を抑えることができる。また、本発明では、通常用いるシガレット構成部材に香料組成物を適用するため、シガレット製造は既存の設備で容易に行うことができる。
From these results, the cigarette containing the fragrance-carrying cigarette of the present invention can suppress variation in the amount of menthol blended between cigarettes than the cigarette containing the cut menthol-containing sheet as a tobacco filler. It can be seen that menthol can be uniformly mixed in the cigarette rod. Thereby, the cigarette containing the fragrance | flavor carrying cigarette of this invention can suppress the fluctuation | variation of the flavor for every cigarette, and the fluctuation | variation of the flavor over a cigarette smoking period. Moreover, in this invention, since a fragrance | flavor composition is applied to the cigarette structural member used normally, cigarette manufacture can be easily performed by the existing installation.

カラギーナン含有液の結果を図7Aおよび7Bに示し、ゲランガム含有液の結果を図8Aおよび8Bに示し、ゲランガムとタマリンドガムを含有する液の結果を図9Aおよび9Bに示す。
7A and 7B show the results of the carrageenan-containing liquid, FIGS. 8A and 8B show the results of the gellan gum-containing liquid, and FIGS. 9A and 9B show the results of the liquid containing gellan gum and tamarind gum.
カラギーナン含有液は、図7Aに示されるとおり、25℃に降温すると、ゾル-ゲル転移温度である約50℃付近まで粘度は低かったが、転移温度より低い温度の下で粘度は急激に上昇した(ゲル化)。このゲルを昇温すると、図7Bに示されるとおり、転移温度を超えて加熱しても容易にゾルへと戻ることはなく、ゲル状態を維持することができた。
As shown in FIG. 7A, the carrageenan-containing liquid had a low viscosity up to about 50 ° C., which is the sol-gel transition temperature, when the temperature was lowered to 25 ° C., but the viscosity rapidly increased below the transition temperature. (Gelation). When this gel was heated, as shown in FIG. 7B, it did not easily return to the sol even when heated beyond the transition temperature, and the gel state could be maintained.
ゲランガム含有液は、図8Aに示されるとおり、25℃に降温すると、50℃まで粘度は低かった(流動性は高かった)が、40℃以下で粘度は急激に上昇した(ゲル化現象)。このゲルを昇温すると、図8Bに示されるとおり、ゲル化した温度(40℃)を越えても容易にゾルに戻ることはなく、ゲル状態はかなり高い温度まで維持された。
As shown in FIG. 8A, when the gellan gum-containing liquid was cooled to 25 ° C., the viscosity was low up to 50 ° C. (the fluidity was high), but the viscosity rapidly increased below 40 ° C. (gelation phenomenon). When this gel was heated, as shown in FIG. 8B, it did not easily return to the sol even when the gelled temperature (40 ° C.) was exceeded, and the gel state was maintained at a considerably high temperature.
ゲランガムとタマリンドガムを含有する液は、図9Aに示されるとおり、25℃に降温すると、40℃まで粘度は低かったが、35℃以下で粘度は急激に上昇した(ゲル化現象)。このゲルを昇温すると、図9Bに示されるとおり、ゲル化した温度(35℃)を越えても容易にゾルに戻ることはなく、ゲル状態はかなり高い温度まで維持された。
As shown in FIG. 9A, the liquid containing gellan gum and tamarind gum had a low viscosity up to 40 ° C. when the temperature was lowered to 25 ° C., but the viscosity rapidly increased below 35 ° C. (gelation phenomenon). When the temperature of this gel was raised, as shown in FIG. 9B, it did not easily return to the sol even when the gelled temperature (35 ° C.) was exceeded, and the gel state was maintained at a considerably high temperature.
これら結果より、上述の多糖類を含有するスラリーは、一旦冷却してゲル化させると、その後温度を上昇させてもゾルに戻りにくく、ゲル状態を維持できることが分かる。かかる多糖類の性質を本発明で利用して、原料スラリーを乾燥させる前に予備冷却を行うと、予備冷却後の原料スラリーは、乾燥時に温度を上昇させても、そこに含まれる多糖類がゾル化しにくく、かかる多糖類で被覆されたメンソールは、揮散されにくい。
From these results, it can be seen that once the above-mentioned polysaccharide-containing slurry is cooled and gelled, it is difficult to return to the sol even if the temperature is raised thereafter, and the gel state can be maintained. If the property of the polysaccharide is used in the present invention and preliminary cooling is performed before the raw material slurry is dried, even if the temperature of the raw material slurry after the preliminary cooling is increased during drying, the polysaccharide contained therein is not contained. Menthol which is difficult to be sol and coated with such a polysaccharide is hardly volatilized.
