摘要

the invention describes a process for preparing a rubber ingredient based on zein cellulose derivative.preferably, there is a solution of zein and water at a ph between about 11.5 and 12.1, containing between 10% and 20%, by weight, about combining the solution of zein and zein cellulose derivative with a fluid, such as hpmc, so as to obtain a compound revu00eatemen t of zeins. we then use the ingredient of zein cellulose derivative for the manufacture of a chewing gum.it was found that the ingredient of zein cellulose derivative is the bitterness and harshness of chewing gum with a high level of mint, after prolonged use.
