    摘要: A substantially cylindrical foamed, extruded, tobacco-containing smoking article and a method of making the article. The article has properties substantially equivalent to a conventional cigarette. It contains from about 5 to about 98 wt. % of particulate tobacco, from 0 to about 60 wt. % of particulate filler, from about 2 to about 40 wt. % of a cellulosic binder selected from among hydroxypropyl cellulose, carboxymethyl cellulose, and its sodium, potassium and ammonium salts, cross-linked carboxymethyl cellulose, and its sodium, potassium and ammonium salts, hydroxyethyl cellulose, ethyl hydroxyethyl cellulose, hydroxypropyl methyl cellulose, methyl cellulose, ethyl cellulose, and mixtures thereof, and from about 5 to about 20 wt. % of water. The article has a density within the range of from about 0.05 to about 1.5 g/cc. The method of making such articles comprises the step of (a) dry blending the tobacco particles having an OV value of from about 3 to about 20% with from 0 to about 60 wt. % of a filler, and; (b) prehydrating the cellulosic binder material (c) admixing the prehydrated binder and the dry blend to form a wet blend containing from about 15 to about 50 wt. % of water; then (d) extruding the wet blend under extrusion conditions of temperature and pressure such that as the wet blend is extruded the moisture in the blend is converted to steam, thereby foaming the article.

    摘要: An apparatus and a method for processing extruded tobacco-containing materials as they are continuously extruded by applying a powdery material to the surface of the extrudate, optionally wiping the coated extruded material in order to smear or embed the powdery materials along and into the surface of the extruded material. The powdery material may be a flavorant or other additive materials modifying the characteristics of the extruded material. The invention is useful particularly for use in processing foamed, extruded materials into smoking articles which can be used with conventional cigarette maker equipment to produce large quantities of foamed, extruded tobacco-containing smoking articles having properties substantially equivalent to those of a conventional cigarette.

    摘要: Apparatus and a method for processing hot, moist extruded tobacco-containing materials as they are continuously extruded by drying the extruded material rapidly with microwave energy, and then cooling the extruded material rapidly so that the surface temperature of the extruded material is decreased below the bulk temperature to provide the extruded material with an adequately rigid and stable dimensionally structure that can be formed into a smoking article. Microwave drying provides substantially uniform drying without case hardening the material. Cooling may occur by passing air at high velocity, refrigerated air or presenting a partial vacuum across the advancing extruded material, or contacting the material with cold contacting members or a cryogenic bath. Conventional maker devices can be used for forming smoking articles from the dried and cooled extruded material. The invention is useful particularly to process foamed, extruded materials into smoking articles which can be used with conventioanl cigarette maker equipment to produce large quantities of foamed, extruded tobacco-containing smoking articles having properties substantially equivalent to those of a conventional cigarette.
