Birashishikaje kumenya kogukenja ishinyambere byakozwe hakoreshejwe chicle, cyangwa amazi y'igiti cya Sapodilla, hamwe n'ibirungo byongerwamo kugira ngo bigire uburyohe bwiza. Iki kintu cyoroshye kugihindura kandi cyoroshye mu bushyuhe bw'iminwa. Ariko, abahanga mu bya shimi bavumbuye uburyo bwo gukora ishinya y'ubukorano kugira ngo isimbuze chicle nyuma y'Intambara ya Kabiri y'Isi Yose bakoresheje polymer, rabha, na warax byongerewe uburyohe n'isukari.
Kubera iyo mpamvu, ushobora kwibaza uti "Ese chewing gum ni pulasitiki?" Muri rusange, igisubizo ni yego niba chewing gum atari karemano kandi ikozwe mu bimera. Ariko si wowe wenyine ubaza iki kibazo, kuko 80% by'abasubije mu bushakashatsi bwakorewe mu gace runaka ku bantu 2000 bavuze ko batabizi.
Mu by'ukuri, chewing gum ikorwa n'iki?
Guhekenya shim irimo ibintu bitandukanye bitewe n'ikirango n'igihugu. Igitangaje ni ukoabakoraNtabwo basabwa gushyira ku rutonde kimwe mu bigize chewing gum ku bicuruzwa byabo, bityo ntibishoboka kumenya neza icyo unywa. Ariko, ushobora kuba ufite amatsiko ku bigize chewing gum. - komeza usome kugira ngo umenye ibice by'ingenzi.
IBIKORESHO BY'INGENZI BY'IGENGA RIMWE N'IBYO BIRIMO:
• ISHINGIRO RY'IGANYA
Ishinya ni kimwe mu bintu bikunze gukoreshwa mu gusya gum, kigizwe n'ibice bitatu by'ingenzi: resin, wax, na elastomer. Muri make, resin ni yo gice cy'ingenzi gishobora guhekenywa, mu gihe wax yoroshya ishinya naho elastomer zongerera ubushobozi bwo koroshya.
Ibintu bisanzwe n'ibikomoka ku bukorikori bishobora guhuzwa mu ishinya. Birashoboka ko igitangaje kurushaho, bitewe n'ikirango, ishinya rishobora kuba rigizwe n'ibintu bikurikira bya sintetike:
• Rubber ya Butadiene-styrene • Isobutylene-isoprene copolymer (rubber ya butyl) • Parafini (binyuze muri Fischer-Tropsch) • Peteroli ya wax
Igiteye impungenge ni uko polyethylene ikunze kuboneka mu mifuka ya pulasitiki no mu bikinisho by'abana, kandi kimwe mu bigize kole ya PVA ni polyvinyl acetate. Kubera iyo mpamvu, birateye impungenge cyane ko
• IBIRYOSHYE
Ibiryo biryoshye bikunze kongerwa muri chewing gum kugira ngo bigire uburyohe bwiza, kandi ibiryo biryoshye cyane bigamije kongera uburyohe. Ibi bintu bigize chewing gum akenshi birimo isukari, dextrose, glucose/corn syrup, erythritol, isomalt, xylitol, maltitol, mannitol, sorbitol, na lactitol, n'ibindi byinshi.
• IBIKORESHO BYOROSHYE KU BUSO
Ibikoresho byoroshye, nka glycerine (cyangwa amavuta y'imboga), byongerwa muri chewing gum kugira ngo biyifashe kugumana ubushuhe ariko nanone bikongera ubushobozi bwayo bwo koroha. Ibi bintu bifasha koroshya chewing gum iyo ishyizwe mu kanwa kawe, bigatuma imiterere yayo igaragara.
• GUSOHORA
Guhekenya gum bishobora kugira uburyohe karemano cyangwa ubukorano bwongerwamo kugira ngo biryohe. Uburyohe busanzwe bwa guhekenya gum ni ubwoko gakondo bwa Peppermint na Spearmint; icyakora, uburyohe butandukanye buryoshye, nk'indimu cyangwa imbuto, bushobora gukorwa hifashishijwe aside y'ibiryo ku ishinya.
• GUSIGA N'IPOLIYOLI
Kugira ngo ibiryo bigumane ubuziranenge kandi bikomeze igihe cyo kubikwa, ubusanzwe gukenja gum ifite igishishwa gikomeye cyo hanze gituruka ku ifu ifata amazi ya polyol. Kubera uruvange rw'amacandwe n'ahantu hashyushye mu kanwa, iyi polyol irangirika vuba.
• Tekereza ku zindi nzira zo gushyushya ishinya
Inyinshi muri chewing gum ikorwa muri iki gihe ikozwe mu ishinge ry’ishinge, rigizwe na polymer, plasticizers, na resins kandi rihuzwa n’ibintu byoroshya ibiryo, ibintu bibungabunga, ibiryo biryoha, amabara n’uburyohe.
Ariko, ubu hari ubwoko butandukanye bw'ishinya ku isoko bukomoka ku bimera kandi bukwiriye abarya inyama gusa, bigatuma zirushaho gukurura ibidukikije n'inda zacu.
Ishinya zisanzwe zikomoka ku bimera, ntizikomoka ku bimera gusa, zishobora kwangirika, nta sukari zirimo, nta aspartame zirimo, nta plastiki zirimo, nta buryohe n'uburyohe by'ubukorano, kandi zirimo xylitol 100% kugira ngo amenyo abe meza.
