The invention discloses an application of Chinese yam extractives in cigarettes. The Chinese yam extractives are prepared according to the method that a. a fresh Chinese yam is washed,
cut into slices, dried and smashed; b. the Chinese yam is extracted and condensed through ethyl
alcohol with the certain concentration to obtain Chinese yam
alcohol extraction liquid; c. material residues after
alcohol extraction are further extracted through water; d. after
water extraction liquid is filtered and condensed, ethyl alcohol is added to the
water extraction liquid, precipitating, standing and filtering are conducted, and precipitates are dried to obtain Chinese yam crude
polysaccharide; e. deproteinization and purification are conducted. When being applied in a cigarette perfuming link, Chinese yam alcohol extraction liquid can improve perfuming quality, cover sundry flavors, increase clean
aroma and sweet
aroma, ensure that
smoke is more delicate, and improve
cigarette smoking and absorbing comfort. After being dissolved in water and used as cigarette material liquid, the Chinese yam crude
polysaccharide plays a role in thickening
