摘要:
A chewing gum elastomer is stabilized with a specific mixture of tocopherol homologs, thereby eliminating the need for synthetic antioxidants. The mixture of tocopherol homologs falls within the range of 7-20% by weight alpha tocopherol, 45-75% by weight gamma tocopherol, 18-32% by weight delta tocopherol and, optionally, 0-3% by weight beta tocopherol.
摘要:
Chewing gum bases, and resultant chewing gums, that are environmentally friendly are provided. The chewing gum base comprises approximately 3 to about 99% by weight poly(lactic acid) copolymers selected from the group consisting of poly(lactic acid-dimer-fatty acid-oxazoline) copolymers and poly(lactic acid-diol-urethane) copolymers.

摘要:
Aspartame in chewing gum is stabilized by acidifying the humectant which is then added to the chewing gum. Enough food acid is added to the humectant to cause the pH of the humectant to remain between about 3.0-5.0, in order to create the most stable environment for the aspartame. Because the acidified humectant is dispersed substantially uniformly throughout the chewing gum, aspartame located anywhere in the gum is stabilized.
