摘要:
Cigarettes which yield low levels of visible sidestream smoke upon use employ a paper wrapping material having about 8 weight percent magnesium hydroxide, about 30 weight percent calcium carbonate and about 62 weight percent flax. The wrapping material has an inherent permeability of about 10 CORESTA units. The wrapping material contains an amount of water soluble alkali metal salt (e.g., potassium chloride and potassium malate) sufficient to provide at least about 35 mg water soluble alkali metal ions per gram of dry base web. The alkali metal salt normally is such that the wrapping material includes a significantly greater level of potassium ions than sodium ions. The wrapping material includes at least one organic acid.

A tobacco-containing paper is provided using a reconstituted tobacco material as a component thereof. A reconstituted tobacco material, provided using papermaking techniques from a refined tobacco pulp, is refined into a pulp form and provided as a slurry in water. The slurry is combined with inorganic filler (e.g., calcium carbonate particles) and cellulosic pulp (e.g., wood pulp). The resulting slurry is then employed to provide a paper using papermaking techniques. The tobacco-containing paper has many desirable physical characteristics.

Cigarette rods and filter rods are provided by manufacturing rods from tobacco cut filler and a circumscribing paper wrap, and then subjecting the rods to conditions such that the cut filler undergoes volume expansion while within the paper wrap. For example, the tobacco rods can be exposed to propane under supercritical conditions within a pressure chamber followed by a venting of the gaseous fluid to expand the tobacco cut filler. The resulting rods are very firm, have good integrity, and frequently do not undergo any noticeable visible change. The resulting rods which contain the volume expanded tobacco can be used as smokable rods for cigarettes or as cigarette filters.
摘要:
A flavor delivery article provides volatilized flavor by heating a flavor carrying substrate, but not burning any material. A heat source which includes a metal oxide (e.g., calcium oxide), an anhydrous metal sulfate (e.g., magnesium sulfate), an inorganic salt and a sugar, generates heat upon contact of water therewith. The heat produced by the heat source heats flavor in a heat exchange relationship therewith. Flavors volatilize and are drawn into the mouth of the user of the article. Typical heat sources heat the flavor to a temperature within 70.degree. C. to 200.degree. C. for 4 to 8 minutes.

A cigarette includes a charge or roll of smokable material (e.g., tobacco cut filler) circumscribed by two layers of paper wrapping materials. The first or inner wrapping material includes an inorganic filler material and tobacco material within the web. The inner wrapping material also can include a water soluble salt burn chemical and a carbonaceous material within the web. The second or outer wrapping material circumscribes and overwraps the first wrapping material, has a cellulosic base web and inorganic filler material, and exhibits a low inherent air permeability. The outer wrapping material can include a magnesium hydroxide filler, and exhibits an inherent air permeability of below about 15 CORESTA units and a net air permeability above about 40 CORESTA units. The cigarette is capable of sustaining smolder under FTC smoking conditions while yielding very low levels of visible sidestream smoke. The cigarette includes a filter element having 2 or more longitudinally positioned segments, and one of the segments includes a carbonaceous material.

A drug delivery article provides a dose of a volatilized drug by heating a drug carrying substrate, but not burning any material. A heat source which includes a metal oxide (e.g., calcium oxide), an anhydrous metal sulfate (e.g., magnesium sulfate), an inorganic salt and a sugar, generates heat upon contact of water therewith. The heat produced by the heat source heats the drug in a heat exchange relationship therewith. The drug volatilizes and is drawn into the mouth of the user of the article. Typical heat sources heat the drug to a temperature within 70.degree. C. to 200.degree. C. for 4 to 8 minutes.
摘要:
Rods are manufactured by shredding strips of sheet-like reconstituted tobacco material into a plurality of strands of about 1/32 inch width. The strands are gathered into a rod-like shape and circumscribed by paper wrap in order to provide a continuous rod. The continuous rod is severed at regular intervals to provide a plurality of rods of the desired length. The resulting rods have a plurality of substantially longitudinally extending strands provided from shredded sheet-like material. The rods are useful as cigarette rods or in the manufacture of cigarette filter elements.

摘要:
Cigarettes which yield low levels of visible sidestream smoke upon use employ an outer paper wrapping material including magnesium hydroxide, calcium carbonate and flax fibers. The outer wrapping material has an inherent permeability of about 10 CORESTA units. The wrapping material contains an amount of water soluble alkali metal salt sufficient to provide at least about 30 mg water soluble alkali metal ions per gram of dry base web. The alkali metal salt normally is such that the wrapping material includes a significantly greater level of potassium ions than sodium ions. The cigarettes also employ an inner paper wrapping material including carbonaceous material and/or tobacco.
摘要:
Cigarettes which yield low levels of visible sidestream smoke upon use employ a paper wrapping material having about 25 weight percent magnesium hydroxide, about 15 weight percent calcium carbonate and about 60 weight percent flax. The wrapping material has an inherent permeability of about 20 CORESTA units. The wrapping material contains an amount of water soluble alkali metal salt sufficient to provide at least about 35 mg water soluble alkali metal ions per gram of dry base web. The alkali metal salt is such that the wrapping material includes a significantly greater level of potassium ions than sodium ions. The wrapping material includes at least one organic acid. The cigarette includes a filter element which has an organic acid incorporated therein. The cigarettes, when employed, provide cohesive ash which is not highly flakey.
