Embodiment Construction

[0011] The present invention provides an improved gum base. Furthermore, the present invention provides improved chewing gum. Furthermore, the present invention provides a chewing gum cud that can be easily removed. Additionally, the present invention provides chewing gum bases and improved methods of making chewing gums.

[0012] Chewing gum typically includes a water-soluble portion as well as a water-insoluble portion. The water-insoluble part is called the gum base.

[0013] The present invention provides gum bases that are substantially free of fillers and include high molecular weight polyisobutylene and optionally amorphous silica and low molecular weight polyvinyl acetate (PVAc). The present invention also provides chewing gums made from the gum bases of the present invention, which may optionally include powdered lecithin and spray-dried flavors. It is believed that the chewing gum base and chewing gum of the present invention exhibit greater hydrophilicity and re...

Abstract

A chewing gum base essentially free of non-silica fillers, comprising high molecular weight polyisobutylene, optionally amorphous silica and polyvinylacetate and powdered lecithin present in the chewing gum composition and optionally spray-dried flavor in the chewing gum composition.

Description

Background of the Invention [0001] The present invention relates to chewing gum bases and chewing gum compositions and methods for their production. More particularly, the present invention relates to chewing gum base compositions that produce gum bases and chewing gums with reduced adhesion to outdoor surfaces compared to typical chewing gum compositions. [0002] When chewing the gum, the insoluble portion remains. While the remaining insoluble fraction can be easily discarded without any problems, hazards can arise when incorrectly discarded. Due to their general composition, chewing gums have adhesive-like properties. Thus, the chewing gum can adhere to outdoor surfaces on which it is placed, either intentionally or unintentionally. Such surfaces may include concrete, flooring, walls, carpet, metal, wood, plastic, glass and other surfaces. It is because of these circumstances that consumers demand chewing gums that can be removed more easily. [0003] A significant ch...
