| 摘要 |
The present invention provides a degradable chewing gum base, degradable chewing gum, and methods of making a degradable chewing gum base and degradable chewing gum. The degradable chewing gum base includes at least one polymer or oligomer with at least two ionic groups. The polymers and oligomers possess the chewing characteristics and texture traditionally desired in a chewing gum while simultaneously providing materials which, when exposed to environmental conditions, break down to non-toxic molecules readily assimilated by nature. |
