This invention provides alcohol flavorant-release oligomeric and polymeric derivatives corresponding to the structural formula: ##STR1## wherein R is selected from aliphatic, alicyclic, heterocyclic and aromatic hydrocarbon radicals; R.sup.1 and R.sup.2 are selected from hydrogen and aliphatic, alicyclic, heterocyclic and aromatic hydrocarbon radicals; and n is an integer.
摘要:
A unitary pack of smoking tobacco products is provided in which a flavorant is incorporated in some of the smoking tobacco products in the form of a polymeric alcohol flavorant-release composition which has the general formula: ##STR1## wherein R is selected from aliphatic, alicyclic, heterocyclic and aromatic hydrocarbon radicals; R.sup.1 and R.sup.2 are selected from hydrogen and aliphatic, alicyclic, heterocyclic and aromatic hydrocarbon radicals; and n is an integer. These polymers release a flavorant when heated. Such polymers include polymers formed from .alpha.-substituted vinyl menthyl carbonate esters, such as poly(.alpha.-methylvinyl .alpha.-menthyl carbonate) and poly(.alpha.-styryl .alpha.-menthyl carbonate), which release menthol when heated. Smoking tobacco products which are made with tobacco which has been treated with a particular alcohol flavorant-release composition have been found to show no significant loss in delivery of flavor. Other smoking tobacco products which are packaged therewith do not acquire the flavor of the flavorant which is contained in the alcohol flavorant-release composition, despite the absence of internal vapor barriers between the different flavored tobacco products.

摘要:
A process is provided for the improved removal of nicotine from tobacco. An essentially nicotine-free solvent in the supercritical or liquid state is fed into a first end of an extraction flow system containing tobacco and a nicotine-rich solvent is discharged from a second end of the extraction flow system. Periodically a portion of extracted tobacco is discharged from the first end of the extraction system while simultaneously a portion of an unextracted tobacco is charged to the second end of the extraction system. Nicotine is then entrapped in an entrapment material or otherwise removed from the solvent and solvent is recycled through the extraction flow system. Various materials are provided as entrapment materials. Among the entrapment materials provided are aqueous solutions containing absorbent selected from various acids and salts. Among the acids and salts provided as entrapment materials are sulfuric acid, phosphoric acid, nitric acid, tartaric acid, citric acid, malic acid, lactic acid, malonic acid, succinic acid, acetic acid, glutamic acid and monopotassium citrate.
摘要:
A method of forming a filter for a smoking article which includes exposing cellulose acetate fibers to an electron beam process, wherein electron beam process deacetylates the cellulose acetate fibers to render the cellulose acetate fibers water-permeable; and forming a cellulose acetate rod from a tow of the cellulose acetate fibers. Filter plugs of the cellulose acetate fibers are water-permeable and allow discarded filtered smoking articles to rapidly degrade and expose the components to the environment.
摘要:
This invention provides tobacco and non-tobacco smoking compositions which contain a heterocyclic-hydroxy-substituted carboxylate compound as a flavorant additive.In one of its embodiments, this invention provides tobacco compositions which contain a heterocylic-hydroxy-substituted carboxylic acid flavorant additive such as 2-(2-butyl)-3-hydroxy-3-methyl-3-(3-pyridyl)propionic acid: ##STR1## Under smoking conditions the above illustrated heterocyclic-hydroxy-substituted carboxylate additive and its pyrolysis products flavor the mainstream and sidestream smoke. The invention also provides for the method of preparing smoking compositions and the method of comprising the aroma imparted by the burning of a combustible article employing a heterocyclic-hydroxy-substituted carboxylate.
