As shown in Table 2: the design of cigarettes that the aeration resistance of filter tip is lower, the ventilation ratio of air inflow is higher, in cigarette Menthol amount and M/T are than more becoming high value.It is thought that because, filter tip aeration resistance and ventilation ratio relation In, tar is different with the filtration rate of menthol.Specifically, in the case of using the filter tip of low aeration resistance, except filtration Outside the physical filtering phenomenon of the internal cigarette of mouth, condensing/to be adsorbed in total because of tow of the amount of menthol of bunch fiber of filter tip Amount is lowered less, and in cigarette, menthol amount and M/T ratio raise.Additionally, in the case of for the design of high ventilation ratio, filter tip Internal cigarette elongated by the time, it is however generally that, the filtration rate of tar and menthol raises, but the low ventilation that the total amount of tow is few In the filter tip of resistance, the filtration rate of menthol is difficult to raise, and M/T ratio increases.As a result, compared with the filtration rate of tar, permissible The filtration rate making menthol reduces.In sensory evaluation, it is possible to obtain the result that there are differences in terms of menthol impression, confirm To embodiment 1 and 2 menthol impression be significantly higher than comparative example 1.
The present embodiment and to be envisioned for the aeration resistance of filter tip compared to the preferred scope of comparative example be 80mmH2O/ Below 27mm and ventilation ratio are more than 55%, are preferably more than 61%, and further preferred range is envisioned for as embodiment The 50mmH of the condition of 12Below O/27mm and ventilation ratio are more than 70%.In view of the actual manufacturing process of filter tip, can The aeration resistance manufacturing is in the range of 25mmH2More than O/27mm is the scope of reality.The raw material of filter tip is characterised by, by Cellulose acetate tow is constituted.
By demonstrated above: the cigarette high by being designed as ventilation ratio that air flows into, in cigarette, menthol amount raises.At this In embodiment, use filter length to be the cigarette of 27mm, but be not limited to this form, in arbitrary length, all can be to Treat same effect.In addition, with regard to the circumferential length of this cigarette, the present embodiment uses the condition of 24.8mm, but close to Same effect can be expected in the range of the circumferential length scope of the present embodiment, specifically 20.0mm~27.0mm, more excellent Elect the scope of 24.0mm~26.0mm as.
< reference example 1~4 >
Use the low filter tip of aeration resistance that the filter tip through menthol perfuming can be made in cigarette when storage to verify Menthol quantitative change must be stablized, and changes during storage and during the storage with cigarette pack form of filter tip, according to table 3 The aeration resistance of filter tip and filter tip perfuming amount, to the storage with filter tip and cigarette during change cigarette in menthol Amount implements test.Here, for the impact removing other factors, be not provided with the passage of filter segment, only change filter tip Aeration resistance, implements test.
In addition to the holding conditions of filter tip, aeration resistance and ventilation ratio, according to embodiment above the 1st, 2 and compare Example the 1st, 2 same orders implement test.
[table 3]
Table 4 shows the condition during filter tip and the storage with cigarette pack form.Storage bar between as short-term Part, can enumerate in the condition of storage making the manufacture being immediately used to cigarette after filter tip and do not carry out cigarette pack form (condition A), on the other hand, can enumerate under the holding conditions of longest period, storage 2 months after filter tip makes, and using should After filter tip makes cigarette, preserve this cigarette condition of 2 months (condition G) with packaged configuration further.To have passed through condition A Each cigarette of~G implements the mensuration to menthol amount and tar content in cigarette.
[table 4]
Table 4
Table 5 and Fig. 1 illustrates the result of test.Reduced rate shown in table 5 for represent with do not implement filter tip storage and with When the M/T ratio of condition A of the storage of cigarette pack form compares, each under the conditions of M/T than the value of reduced rate.Fig. 1 illustrates M/T under the conditions of each than reduced rate.
[table 5]
Can get following result according to table 5 and Fig. 1: the storage period of the packaged configuration during the storage of filter tip and with cigarette Between longer, the value of the menthol amount obtaining is less.In addition, the aeration resistance of acknowledged filter tip is bigger, M/T than reduced rate get over Greatly, it is known that: reference example 2~4 compared with the reference example 1 of the essential condition of the filter tip aeration resistance meeting claim 1, M/T The reduced rate of ratio is big.It is thought that because the filter tip of low aeration resistance is low due to tow weight, therefore, with high aeration resistance Filter tip compare, the absorption to filter tip for the menthol can be reduced, the release efficiency of per unit menthol amount is high.
Confirmed by above result: by the low filter tip of the aeration resistance of use filter tip, readily and stably keep cigarette In menthol amount.In the case of by filter tip low for aeration resistance with ventilation ratio high conditional combination, it is also possible to same Ground obtains this effect, and the amount that can make menthol in cigarette raises, and also readily and stably keeps the perfume (or spice) of menthol after storage Cigarette.
< reference example 5~8 >
In the case that menthol perfuming amount in filter tip is set to that in every 1, contained amount is more than 8mg, in order to verify The quantitative change of menthol in cigarette obtains more stable, is set to constant by filter tip aeration resistance, implements to change the menthol in filter tip Test during the storage of perfuming amount and filter tip.Table 6 shows the menthol perfuming amount in filter tip.It should be noted that It at this also in the same manner as reference example 1~4, in order to remove the impact of other factors of influence, is not provided with passage at filter segment, only The aeration resistance of change filter tip, implements test.
[table 6]
The storage environment of filter tip, in the same manner as reference example 1~4, is implemented for 60% time in temperature 22 DEG C, humidity, with regard to filtration During the storage of mouth, never implement storage (being labeled as 0) start, to storage 2 weeks (being labeled as 2W), 5 weeks (being labeled as 5W), Implement test, according to the menthol perfuming amount in filter tip, by with menthol in cigarette under conditions of long 2 months (being labeled as 2M) The ratio that the form of amount is released compares with the release rate that percentage represents.Here, by reference example 1~4 anticipation above To the unreal storage imposing cigarette pack form, by during the storage of only changing filter tip, only investigation filter tip storage causes Impact, but by implementing with the storage of cigarette pack form further, release rate reduces further.Therefore, test in this Do not implement the menthol perfuming of the pipe tobacco to tobacco rod portion, only filter segment is discharged menthol.The menthol of smoke abatement silk/filter tip Beyond during the storage of perfuming amount, ventilation ratio and filter tip, according to embodiment above the 1st, 2 and comparative example the 1st, as 2 Step implements test.Result of the test is shown in table 7 and Fig. 2.
[table 7]
From table 7 and Fig. 2: the menthol perfuming amount of filter tip is more, and the release rate with rheological parameters' change with time is more stable, with The 5th, reference example 6 is compared, it may be said that reference example the 7th, 8 rheological parameters' change with time patience strong.This is because, make to add by a large amount of menthols that add The menthol amount adding is more than the amount adsorbed by tow, can reduce the impact that the absorption of menthol causes.It is contemplated that and make In the case of with the aeration resistance filter tip lower than reference example 5~8, owing to the menthol amount self adsorbed by tow reduces, Therefore this effect can become apparent from.Confirmed by above result: the menthol perfuming amount in filter tip is contained in every 1 In the case that amount is for more than 8mg, the quantitative change of menthol in cigarette must be stablized.Menthol perfuming amount in preferred filter tip is More than 10mg, is more preferably equivalent to more than the 12mg of the condition of reference example 8.
< embodiment 3 and comparative example the 3rd, 4 >
Embodiment the 1st, 2 and comparative example the 1st, 2 comparative test when being 5mg for tar content, in order to verify this technology using as The 1mg of lower tar content is also effective in the case of being target, implements and embodiment the 1st, 2 with the test level shown in table 8 And comparative example the 1st, 2 same test.In addition, similarly, sensory evaluation is carried out in the lump.
[table 8]
Table 9 illustrates result of the test, in smoke abatement outside menthol amount and tar content, it is also shown that M/T ratio.
[table 9]
As shown in Table 9: the menthol amount of embodiment 3 is the highest, in the case of comparing with M/T ratio, it is possible to obtain High result.With regard to the impression evaluation to menthol for the sensory evaluation, also can get the sense of significantly high menthol in embodiment 3 Be subject to, with the embodiment above implemented the 1st, 2 and comparative example the 1st, 2 evaluation in the same manner as, the value of menthol amount is significantly different, therefore, recognizes For there is difference.By identified above: in the low-down scope of tar content, this technology is effective.
