Product Application
Flavor inclusion compound solve the problems of flavor volatility, poor stability, and low solubility through molecular inclusion technology, while giving additional functions such as sustained release, antibacterial, and impurity removal. Its wide application in the fields of tobacco, food, medicine, and daily chemicals reflects its dual advantages of technological innovation and commercial value.
1. Improve the solubility and stability of flavors
1) Improved solubility: Flavor ingredients usually have poor water solubility due to hydrophobicity, which limits their application. The hydrophobic cavity of cyclodextrin can wrap the flavor molecules, and the hydrophilic shell is exposed to the water phase, which significantly improves the solubility.
2) Enhanced stability: Cyclodextrin inclusion can isolate the damage of external environments such as light, heat, and oxygen to the flavor.
2. Controlled release and sustained release effect
1) Extended action time: The inclusion complex can achieve sustained release by adjusting the release rate, has sustained release characteristics, and prolongs the fragrance retention time of scented textiles.
2) Thermal stability regulation: The thermal decomposition of the inclusion complex of cyclodextrin and vanillin follows a first-order reaction, and maintains thermal stability through weak interactions, which is suitable for high-temperature processing environments.
3. Reduce volatility and preserve fragrance
1) Inhibit volatility: Cyclodextrin inclusion can significantly reduce the volatility of flavors and prolong the stability of fragrance.
2) Remove impurities and mask odors: The inclusion complex can mask the bad odor or irritating components in the flavor.
4. Improve sensory properties and application effects
1) Enhance flavor and blend flavor: In tobacco, inclusion compounds such as vanillin and cinnamaldehyde can enhance the aroma, improve the aftertaste and reduce irritation.
2) Antibacterial and functional expansion: Some flavor inclusion compounds have antibacterial functions.
5. Expand multi-field applications
1) Tobacco industry: used for cigarette flavoring, tobacco processing and tobacco sheet improvement to improve the aroma persistence and reduce impurities.
2) Food and health products: used as a stabilizer to extend the shelf life of flavors, or used to emulsify oil-containing beverages (such as coffee and ice cream).
3) Daily chemicals and textiles: Lavender flavor microcapsules are used in textiles to achieve safe and sustained release of fragrance; inclusion technology is used in cosmetics to reduce irritation and enhance stability.
4) Pharmaceutical field: inclusion technology can improve drug solubility and be used to cover up drug odor.
