ABSTRACT:
Sustained flavor release compositions are disclosed which comprise polymer backbones having pendant flavor groups thereon. Such compositions can be used, for example, in chewing gums. Release of the flavor can be accomplished by hydrolysis upon mastication of the chewing gum.
In one embodiment, aldehyde flavors are reacted with polymers having hydroxy groups thereon to produce a polymer backbone with pendant acetal or hemi-acetal flavor groups. An example is the reaction product of cinnamic aldehyde and partially hydrolyzed polyvinyl acetate. In a like manner, ketone flavors can be reacted with similar polymers to form pendant ketal flavor groups. Also, alcohol flavors can be reacted with polymers having aldehyde or ketone groups to provide polymer backbones with pendant acetal or ketal moieties thereon.
