Abstract

An aroma delivery system comprising aroma compound entrapped in a polymeric matrix.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
We claim: 
     
         1 . An aroma delivery system comprising a film of aroma compound releasably entrapped in a polymeric matrix. 
     
     
         2 . The aroma delivery system of  claim 1 , wherein the matrix has a surface and further comprising a secondary covering film covering the surface. 
     
     
         3 . The aroma delivery system of  claim 1 , wherein the aroma compound is selected from the group consisting of a volatile compound, a polar compound, a hydrophilic compound, and blends thereof. 
     
     
         4 . The aroma delivery system of  claim 2 , wherein the aroma compound is selected from the group consisting of a volatile compound, a polar compound, a hydrophilic compound, and blends thereof. 
     
     
         5 . The aroma delivery system of  claim 1 , wherein the polymer matrix is selected from the group consisting of a natural wax, a natural biopolymer, a natural polymer, a synthetic polymer, and blends thereof. 
     
     
         6 . The aroma delivery system of  claim 2 , wherein the polymer matrix is selected from the group consisting of a natural wax, a natural biopolymer, a natural polymer, a synthetic polymer, and blends thereof. 
     
     
         7 . The aroma delivery system of  claim 3 , wherein the polymer matrix is selected from the group consisting of a natural wax, a natural biopolymer, a natural polymer, a synthetic polymer, and blends thereof. 
     
     
         8 . The aroma delivery system of  claim 4 , wherein the polymer matrix is selected from the group consisting of a natural wax, a natural biopolymer, a natural polymer, a synthetic polymer, and blends thereof. 
     
     
         9 . The aroma delivery system of  claim 2 , wherein the secondary covering film is selected from the group consisting of a polysaccharide, a synthetic polymer, a natural wax, a natural biopolymer, a natural film former, and blends thereof. 
     
     
         10 . The aroma delivery system of  claim 4 , wherein the secondary covering film is selected from the group consisting of a polysaccharide, a synthetic polymer, a natural wax, a natural biopolymer, a natural film former, and blends thereof. 
     
     
         11 . The aroma delivery system of  claim 6 , wherein the secondary covering film is selected from the group consisting of a polysaccharide, a synthetic polymer, a natural wax, a natural biopolymer, a natural film former, and blends thereof. 
     
     
         12 . The aroma delivery system of  claim 8 , wherein the secondary covering film is selected from the group consisting of a polysaccharide, a synthetic polymer, a natural wax, a natural biopolymer, a natural film former, and blends thereof. 
     
     
         13 . A container having an openable closure and comprising an aroma delivery system that releases aroma when the closure is opened, the aroma delivery system comprising a film of aroma compound releasably entrapped in a polymeric matrix. 
     
     
         14 . The container of  claim 13 , wherein the matrix has a surface and further comprising a secondary covering film covering the surface. 
     
     
         15 . The container of  claim 13 , wherein the aroma compound is selected from the group consisting of a volatile compound, a polar compound, a hydrophilic compound, and blends thereof. 
     
     
         16 . The container of  claim 14 , wherein the aroma compound is selected from the group consisting of a natural wax, a volatile compound, a polar compound, a hydrophilic compound, and blends thereof. 
     
     
         17 . The container of  claim 13 , wherein the polymer matrix is selected from the group consisting of a natural wax, a natural biopolymer, a natural polymer, a synthetic polymer, and blends thereof. 
     
     
         18 . The container of  claim 14 , wherein the polymer matrix is selected from the group consisting of a natural wax, a natural biopolymer, a natural polymer, a synthetic polymer, and blends thereof. 
     
     
         19 . The container of  claim 15 , wherein the secondary covering film is selected from the group consisting of a polysaccharide, a synthetic polymer, a natural wax, a natural biopolymer, a natural film former, and blends thereof. 
     
     
         20 . The container of  claim 16 , wherein the secondary covering film is selected from the group consisting of a polysaccharide, a synthetic polymer, a natural wax, a natural biopolymer, a natural film former, and blends thereof.
