Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a fuel element for a smoking article which produces an aerosol that resembles tobacco smoke, and which contains no more than a minimal amount of incomplete combustion or pyrolysis products.
  • EP-A-0 117 355 (Hearn et al.), describes a proposed cigarette smoking article having a carbon heat source with an axial passageway and a separate flavor generator.
  • the axial passageway is provided in order to prevent gaseous combustion products from flowing through the carbonaceous fuel material of the fuel element during puffs.
  • the heat source (page 2, line 23 to page 7, line 14) is formed by pyrolyzing a preformed, tube-shaped ligno-cellulosic material of e.g. 90 mm or 65 mm length (see Comparative Example 1 and Example 4, respectively) under specified conditions, followed by at least one additional specified process step.
  • the purported flavor generator (page 8, lines 8-27) comprises a substrate material, which may be tobacco, alumina, etc., adjacent the mouth end, which is impregnated with or inherently contains at least one thermally releasable flavorant.
  • the flavor generator also may comprise a flavored, foamed core inside the heat source.
  • a conventional filter may be placed after the flavor generator.
  • a relatively short carbonaceous segment of a cigarette type smoking article is already known per se from EP-A-0 074 201.
  • This document teaches to use a combustible carbonized rod as a segment of a cigarette type smoking article wherein this segment is either a filter with a length of from 10 mm to 40 mm, or the sole fuel element of a tobacco-free cigarette, said fuel element having a length of from 85 mm to 120 mm.
  • the carbonaceous filter may be intended to be consumed by smoking thereby releasing some of the previously trapped TPM released by previously smoked tobacco disposed upstream of the filter in order to achieve that the last few puffs of the smoking article may be perceived by the user to be as mild as the initial puffs.
  • the fuel element comprises at least 60 % to 80 % by weight carbon as such.
  • fuel elements are preferred which have a diameter of from about 4 mm to 5 mm.
  • the fuel element For easy lighting, it is proposed to provide the fuel element with a tapered end.
  • a smoking article with an inventive fuel element and a separate aerosol generator is capable of producing substantial quantities of aerosol, both initially and over the useful life of the product, without significant thermal degradation of the aerosol former and without the presence of substantial pyrolysis or incomplete combustion products, and preferably without substantial quantities of sidestream smoke.
  • the fuel element Upon lighting, the fuel element generates heat which is used to volatilize the aerosol forming substance or substances in the aerosol generating means. These volatile materials are then drawn toward the mouth end, especially during puffing, and into the user's mouth, akin to the smoke of a conventional cigarette.
  • the hot, burning fire cone is always close to the aerosol generating means, which maximizes heat transfer thereto and maximises the resultant production of aerosol, especially in embodiments which are provided with a member conducting heat from the fuel element to the aerosol generating means.
  • the aerosol forming substance is physically separate from the fuel element, it is exposed to substantially lower temperatures than are present in the burning fire cone, thereby minimizing the possibility of thermal degradation of the aerosol former.
  • the use of a carbonaceous fuel element which is substantially free of volatile organic material eliminates the presence of substantial pyrolysis or incomplete combustion products and eliminates the generation of substantial sidestream smoke.
  • aerosol is defined to include vapors, gases, particles, and the like, both visible and invisible, and especially those components perceived by the user to be “smoke-like,” generated by action of the heat from the burning fuel element upon substances contained within the aerosol generating means, or elsewhere in the article.
  • aerosol also includes volatile flavoring agents and/or pharmacologically or physiologically active agents, irrespective of whether they produce a visible aerosol.
  • the smoking article illustrated in Figure 1 which preferably has the diameter of a conventional cigarette, includes a short, combustible carbonaceous fuel element 10, an abutting aerosol generating means 12, and a foil lined paper tube 14, which forms the mouthend piece 15 of the article.
  • fuel element 10 is provided with five longitudinally extending holes 16. See Figure 1A.
  • Aerosol generating means 12 includes a plurality of glass beads 20 coated with an aerosol forming substance or substances, such as glycerin.
  • the glass beads are held in place by a porous disc 22, which may be made of cellulose acetate. This disc may be provided with a series of peripheral grooves 24 which provide passages between the disc and the foil lined tube 14.
  • the foil lined paper tube 14 which forms the mouthend piece of the article, surrounds aerosol generating means 12 and the rear, non-lighting end of fuel element 10.
  • the tube also forms an aerosol delivery passage 26 between the aerosol generating means 12 and mouth end 15 of the article.
  • the article illustrated in Figure 1 also includes an optional mass or plug of tobacco 28 to contribute flavor to the aerosol.
  • This tobacco charge 28 may be placed at the mouth end of disc 22, as shown in Figure 1, or it may be placed between glass beads 20 and disc 22. It also may be placed in passage 26 at a location spaced from aerosol generator 12.
  • the short fuel element 10 is a carbon rod or plug, about 20 mm long, which is provided with an axial hole 16 and may be formed from carbonized fibers and preferably also with an axial passageway corresponding to hole 16.
  • aerosol generating means 12 includes a thermally stable conductive carbonaceous substrate 30, such as a plug of porous carbon, which is impregnated with an aerosol forming substance or substances. This substrate may be provided with an optional axial passageway 32, as is shown in Figure 2.
  • This embodiment also includes a mass of tobacco 28 which is preferably placed at the mouth end of substrate 30.
  • this article also includes an optional high porosity cellulose acetate filter 34, which may be provided with peripheral grooves 36 to provide passages for the aerosol forming substance between filter 34 and foil tube 14.
  • an optional high porosity cellulose acetate filter 34 may be provided with peripheral grooves 36 to provide passages for the aerosol forming substance between filter 34 and foil tube 14.
  • the lighting end 11 of the fuel element may be tapered to improve lightability.
  • the embodiment of the invention illustrated in Figure 3 includes a short combustible carbonaceous fuel element 10, connected to aerosol generating means 12 by a heat conductive rod 99 and by a foil lined paper tube 14, which also leads to the mouth end 15 of the article.
  • fuel element 10 may be an extruded carbon rod or plug.
  • Aerosol generating means 12 includes a thermally stable carbonaceous substrate 30, such as a plug of porous carbon, which is impregnated with an aerosol forming substance or substances.
  • This embodiment includes a void space 97 between the fuel element 10 and the substrate 30.
  • the portion of the foil lined tube 14 surrounding this void space includes a plurality of peripheral holes 100 which permit sufficient air to enter the void space to provide appropriate pressure drop.
  • the heat conducting means includes a conductive rod 99 and the foil lined tube 14.
  • the rod 99 preferably formed of aluminum, has at least one, preferably from 2 to 5, peripheral grooves 96 therein, to allow air passage through the substrate.
  • the article of Figure 3 has the advantage that the air introduced into the void space 97 contains less carbon oxidation products because it is not drawn through the burning fuel.
  • the embodiment illustrated in Figure 4 includes a fibrous carbon fuel element 10, such as carbonized cotton or rayon.
  • the fuel element includes a single axial hole 16.
  • the substrate 38 of the aerosol generator is a granular, thermally stable carbon.
  • a mass of tobacco 28 is located immediately behind the substrate.
  • This article is provided with a cellulose acetate tube 40, in place of the foil lined tube of previous embodiments.
  • This tube 40 includes an annular section 42 of cellulose acetate tow surrounding an optional plastic, e.g., polypropylene tube 44.
  • the entire length of the article is wrapped in cigarette-type paper 46.
  • a cork or white ink coating 48 may be used on the mouth end to simulate tipping.
  • a foil strip 50 is located on the inside of the paper, toward the fuel end of the article. This strip preferably extends from the rear portion of the fuel element to the mouth end of the tobacco charge 28. It may be integral with the paper or it may be a separate piece applied before the paper overwrap.
  • the aerosol generating means 12 is formed by an aluminum macrocapsule 52 which is filled with a granular substrate or, as shown in the drawing, a mixture of a granular substrate 54, and tobacco 56.
  • the macrocapsule 52 is crimped at its ends 58, 60 to enclose the material and to inhibit migration of the aerosol former.
  • the crimped end 58, at the fuel end preferably abuts the rear end of the fuel element to provide for conductive heat transfer.
  • a void space 62 formed by end 58 also helps to inhibit migration of the aerosol former to the fuel.
  • Longitudinal passageways 59 and 61 are provided to permit the passage of air and the aerosol forming substance.
  • Macrocapsule 52 and fuel element 10 may be united by a conventional cigarette paper 47, as illustrated in the drawing, by a perforated ceramic paper, or a foil strip. If cigarette paper is used, a strip 64 near the rear end of the fuel should be printed or treated with sodium silicate or other known materials which cause the paper to extinguish. The entire length of the article is overwrapped wish conventional cigarette paper 46.
  • Figure 6 illustrates another embodiment having a carbon fuel plug 10.
  • the fuel element has a tapered lighting end 11 for easier lighting and a tapered rear end 9 for easy fitting into a tubular foil wrapper 66.
  • Abutting the rear end of the fuel element is an aluminum disc 68 with a center hole 70.
  • a second, optional aluminum disc 72 with hole 74 is located at the mouth end of the aerosol generator 12.
  • In between is a zone 76 of a particulate substrate and a zone 78 of tobacco.
  • the foil wrapper 66 in which the fuel element is mounted extends back beyond the second aluminum disc 72.
  • This embodiment also includes a hollow cellulose acetate rod 42 with an internal polypropylene tube 44, and a cellulose acetate filter plug 45. The entire length of the article is preferably wrapped with cigarette paper 46.
  • FIG. 7 illustrates the use of a substrate 80 embedded within a large cavity 82 in fuel element 10.
  • the fuel element is formed from an extruded carbon, and the substrate 80 usually is a relatively rigid, porous material.
  • the entire length of the article is wrapped with conventional cigarette paper 46.
  • This embodiment may also include a foil strip 84 to couple fuel element 10 to the cellulose acetate tube 40 and to help extinguish the fuel.
  • inventions shown in Figures 8 and 9 include a nonburning insulating jacket 86 around fuel element 10 to insulate and concentrate the heat in the fuel element. These embodiments also help to reduce any fire causing potential of the burning fire cone.
  • both fuel element 10 and substrate 30 are located within an annular jacket or tube 86 of insulating fibers, such as ceramic (e.g., glass) fibers. Nonburning carbon or graphite fibers may be used in place of ceramic fibers.
  • Fuel element 10 is an extruded carbon plug having a hole 16. In the illustrated embodiment, the lighting end 11 extends slightly beyond the edge of jacket 86 for ease of lighting.
  • Substrate 30 is a solid porous carbon material, although other types of substrates may be used. The substrate and the rear portion of the fuel element are surrounded by a piece of aluminum foil 87.
  • this jacketed fuel/substrate unit is coupled to a mouthend piece, such as the elongated cellulose acetate tube 40 shown in the drawing, with an overwrap of conventional cigarette paper 46.
  • the jacket 86 extends to the mouth end of substrate 30, but may replace cellulose acetate rod 42.
  • an aluminum macrocapsule 52 of the type shown in Figure 5 is used to enclose a granular substrate 54 and tobacco 56.
  • This macrocapsule is preferably positioned entirely within the insulator jacket 86.
  • the lighting end 11 of fuel element 10 does not protrude beyond the forward end of jacket 86.
  • the macrocapsule and the rear portion of the fuel element are surrounded by a piece of aluminum foil in a manner similar to that shown in Figure 8.
  • the fuel element Upon lighting any of the aforesaid embodiments, the fuel element burns, generating the heat used to volatilize the aerosol forming substance or substances present in the aerosol generating means. These volatile materials are then drawn toward the mouthend, especially during puffing, and into the user's mouth, akin to the smoke of a conventional cigarette. Because the fuel element is relatively short, the hot, burning fire cone is always close to the aerosol generating body, which maximizes heat transfer to the aerosol generating means, and resultant production of aerosol, especially when a heat conducting member is used.
  • the fuel element Because of the small size and burning characteristics of the carbonaceous fuel element, the fuel element usually begins burning over substantially all of its exposed length within a few puffs. Thus, the portion of the fuel element adjacent to the aerosol generating means becomes hot quickly, which significantly increases heat transfer to the aerosol generating means, especially during the early and middle puffs. Because the fuel element is short, there is never a long section of nonburning fuel to act as a heat sink, as was common in previous thermal aerosol articles. Heat transfer, and therefor aerosol delivery, also is enhanced by the use of holes through the fuel, which draw hot air to the aerosol generator, especially during puffing.
  • the short carbonaceous fuel element, heat conducting member, insulating means, and passages in the fuel cooperate with the aerosol generator to provide a system which is capable of producing substantial quantities of aerosol, on virtually every puff.
  • the aerosol generating means is maintained at a relatively high temperature between puffs, and that the additional heat delivered during puffs, which is significantly increased by the hole or holes in the fuel element, is primarily utilized to vaporize the aerosol forming substance. This increased heat transfer makes more efficient use of the available fuel energy, reduces the amount of fuel needed, and helps deliver early aerosol.
  • the combustible fuel elements according to the present invention are less than about 30 mm long.
  • the fuel element is about 20 mm or less, preferably about 15 mm or less in length.
  • the diameter of the fuel element is between about 3 and 8 mm, preferably about 4 to 5 mm.
  • the density of the fuel elements employed herein has ranged from about 0.5 g/cc to about 1.5 g/cc.
  • the density is greater than 0.7 g/cc., more preferably greater than 0.8 g/cc.
  • the fuel is provided with one or more longitudinally extending holes, such as holes 11 in Figures 1 through 5. These holes provide porosity and increase early heat transfer to the substrate by increasing the amount of hot gases which reach the substrate.
  • the fuel element is primarily formed of a carbonaceous material.
  • Carbonaceous fuel elements are preferably from about 5 to 15 mm, more preferably, from about 8 to 12 mm in length. Carbonaceous fuel elements having these characteristics are sufficient to provide fuel for at least about 7 to 10 puffs, the normal number of puffs generally obtained by smoking a conventional cigarette under FTC conditions.
  • the carbon content of such a fuel element is at least 60 - 70%, most preferably at least about 80% or more by weight. Excellent results have been achieved with fuel elements having a carbon content of above above about 85% by weight. High carbon content fuels are preferred because they produce minimal pyrolysis and incomplete combustion products, little or no visible sidestream smoke, and minimal ash and have high heat capacity. However, lower carbon content fuel elements, e.g., about 50 - 65 weight percent, are within the scope of this invention, especially where a nonburning inert filler is used.
  • the density of the fuel is above about 0.5 g/cc., preferably above about 0.7 g/cc., which is higher than the densities normally used in conventional smoking articles.
  • the fuel element may comprise other fuel components, including burn modifiers, moisture, etc.
  • the carbonaceous materials used in or as the preferred fuel may be derived from virtually any of the numerous carbon sources known to those skilled in the art.
  • the carbonaceous material is obtained by the pyrolysis or carbonization of cellulosic materials, such as wood, cotton, rayon, tobacco, coconut, paper, and the like, although carbonaceous materials from other sources may be used.
  • the carbonaceous fuel element should be capable of being ignited by a conventional cigarette lighter without the use of an oxidizing agent.
  • Burning characteristics of this type may generally be obtained from a cellulosic material which has been pyrolyzed at temperatures between about 400 o C to about 1000 o C, preferably between about 500 o C to about 950 o C, in an inert atmosphere or under a vacuum.
  • the pyrolysis time is not believed to be critical, as long as the temperature at the center of the pyrolyzed mass has reached the aforesaid temperature range for at least a few minutes.
  • a slow pyrolysis employing gradually increasing temperatures over several hours is believed to produce a more uniform material with a higher carbon yield.
  • carbonaceous fuel elements which require the addition of an oxidizing agent to render them ignitable by a cigarette lighter are within the scope of this invention, as are carbonaceous materials which require the use of a glow retardant or other type of combustion modifying agent.
  • combustion modifying agents are disclosed in many patents and publications and are known to those of ordinary skill in the art.
  • the most preferred carbonaceous fuel elements used in practicing the invention are substantially free of volatile organic material.
  • the fuel element is not purposely impregnated or mixed with substantial amounts of volatile organic materials, such as volatile aerosol forming or flavoring agents, which could degrade in the burning fuel.
  • volatile organic materials such as volatile aerosol forming or flavoring agents, which could degrade in the burning fuel.
  • small amounts of water, which are naturally adsorbed by the fuel may be present therein.
  • small amounts of aerosol forming substances may migrate from the aerosol generating means and thus may also be present in the fuel element.
  • a preferred carbonaceous fuel element is an extruded carbon mass prepared from activated carbon, namely PCB-G, or from a non-activated carbon, namely PXC, both available from Calgon Carbon Corporation, Pittsburgh, PA.
  • Other preferred carbons for extrusion are prepared from pyrolyzed cotton or pyrolyzed papers.
  • binders which may be used in preparing such a fuel element are well known in the art.
  • a preferred binder is sodium carboxymethylcellulose (SCMC), which may be used alone, which is preferred, or in conjunction with materials such as sodium chloride, vermiculite, bentonite, calcium carbonate, and the like.
  • SCMC sodium carboxymethylcellulose
  • Other useful binders include gums, such as guar gum, and other cellulose derivatives, such as methylcellulose and carboxymethylcellulose (CMC).
  • binder concentrations can be utilized.
  • the amount of binder is limited to minimize contribution of the binder to undesirable combustion products.
  • sufficient binder must be included to hold the fuel element together during manufacture and use. The amount used will thus depend on the cohesiveness of the carbon in the fuel element.
  • the fuel elements according to the present invention also may contain one or more additives to improve burning, such as up to about 5 weight percent sodium chloride to improve smoldering characteristics and as a glow retardant. Also, up to about 5, preferably 1 to 2, weight percent of potassium carbonate may be included to improve lightability. Additives to improve physical characteristics, such as clays like kaolins, serpentines, attapulgites, and the like also may be used.
  • Another carbonaceous fuel element is a carbon fiber fuel, which may be prepared by carbonizing a fibrous precursor, such as cotton, rayon, paper, polyacrylonitile, and the like. Generally, pyrolysis at from about 650 o C to 1000 o , preferably at about 950 o , for about 30 minutes, in an inert atmosphere or vacuum, is sufficient to produce a suitable carbon fiber with good burning characteristics. Combustion modifying additives also may be added to these fibrous fuels.
  • a further benefit from the present invention is the relative lack of ash produced during use in comparison to ash from a conventional cigarette.
  • the preferred carbon fuel source is burned, it is essentially converted to oxides of carbon, with relatively little ash generation, and thus there is no need to dispose of ashes while using the article.
