Abstract

This disclosures relates to new compositions and methods for making cannabinoid formulations. In one embodiment, this disclosure provides water soluble compositions comprising a first purified cannabinoid and Vitamin E TPGS. In one embodiment, the disclosure herein comprises a method of making powders comprising heatings material to a first temperature and a second temperature.

Claims (22)

1. A water-soluble powder composition, comprising:

one or more purified cannabinoids;

a purified terpene; and

Vitamin E TPGS.

2. The composition of claim 1 , comprising a ratio of Vitamin E TPGS to the one or more purified cannabinoids of about 85:15 to about 75:25 by percent mass.

3. The composition of claim 1 , comprising a ratio of Vitamin E TPGS to the one or more purified cannabinoids of about 82:18 to about 78:22 by percent mass.

4. The composition of claim 1 , comprising between 0-1% water by mass percent.

5. The composition of claim 4 , comprising between 0-0.5% water by mass percent.

6. The composition of claim 1 , wherein the one or more purified cannabinoids is Cannabidiol (CBD), Tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), Tetrahydrocannabivarin (THCV) or a combination thereof.

7. The composition of claim 6 , wherein the composition comprises the combination of THC, CBD and THCV.

8. The composition of claim 1 , wherein the purified terpene is linalool, alpha-pinene, alpha-humulene, terpinolene, eucalyptol, pulegone, terpineol, beta-caryophyllene, cymene or combinations thereof.

9. The composition of claim 7 , wherein the composition comprises the combination of beta-caryophyllene, linalool, and cymene as purified terpenes.

10. A method of making a water soluble powder comprising a first purified cannabinoid and a purified terpene, the method comprising:

separating a first purified cannabinoid and a purified terpene from a cannabis plant material;

combining the first purified cannabinoid and the purified terpene to form a cannabis oil;

adding the cannabis oil and Vitamin E TPGS to water to create an aqueous cannabinoid formulation;

sonicating the aqueous cannabinoid formulation; and

removing the water from the aqueous cannabinoid formulation to create a water soluble powder.

11. The method of claim 10 , wherein removing the water from the aqueous cannabinoid formulation comprises freeze-drying the aqueous cannabinoid formulation.

12. The method of claim 11 , further comprising heating the freeze-dried aqueous cannabinoid formulation to a temperature between 70-90° C.

13. The method of claim 10 , wherein the aqueous cannabinoid formulation comprises a ratio of Vitamin E TPGS to the first purified cannabinoid of about 85:15 to about 75:25 by percent mass.

14. The method of claim 10 , wherein the aqueous cannabinoid formulation comprises a ratio of Vitamin E TPGS to the first purified cannabinoid of about 82:18 to about 78:22 by percent mass.
