Definitions
- the present invention relates to a cigarette paper containing a water-soluble salt, preferably sodium hydrogencarbonate, potassium bicarbonate or ammonium carbonate, whereby a high diffusion capacity during thermal decomposition and thus a reduction of carbon monoxide in cigarette smoke is achieved.
- a water-soluble salt preferably sodium hydrogencarbonate, potassium bicarbonate or ammonium carbonate
- Cigarette papers are made from cellulose fibers derived from wood, flax or other materials. Mixtures of cellulose fibers of various origins are also used. Cigarette papers have a typical basis weight of 10 g / m 2 to 60 g / m 2 , with the range of 20 g / m 2 to 35 g / m 2 being generally preferred.
- Cigarette papers often also contain inorganic, mineral fillers which are added to the paper in a mass fraction of 10% to 40%.
- a frequently used filler is lime (calcium carbonate).
- lime calcium carbonate
- other carbonates and oxides such as magnesium oxide and aluminum hydroxide are also used.
- the cigarette paper may also be provided with burn salts which increase or decrease the smoldering speed of the paper.
- burn salts which increase or decrease the smoldering speed of the paper.
- very often used are trisodium and tripotassium citrate and mixtures thereof, which are added to the paper to 0% to 5% of the paper pulp.
- the group of fire salts of industrial importance additionally comprises further citrates, malates, tartrates, acetates, nitrates, succinates, fumarates, gluconates, glycates, lactates, oxylates, salicylates, ⁇ -hydroxycaprylates and phosphates.
- the paper is impregnated, for example, in the size press with a solution or suspension of these Brandsalze, or the solution or suspension is applied in a film press on the surface of the paper.
- Typical cigarette papers have an air permeability between 10 CU and 300 CU, with the range 20 CU to 120 CU preferably being used. The air permeability can be determined, for example, according to ISO 2965.
- the diffusion capacity of a cigarette paper for CO 2 can be determined, for example, with the CO 2 Diffusivity Meter from Sodim.
- Typical cigarette papers have a diffusion capacity between 0.1 cm / s and 3.5 cm / s at room temperature, with the range of 0.5 cm / s to 3.0 cm / s preferably occurring.
- the diffusion capacity can be measured at room temperature or standard conditions, such as a temperature of 23 ° C and a relative humidity of 50%, after the paper has been conditioned accordingly. Alternatively, among other things, it is also possible to determine the diffusion capacity of the paper after the paper has been subjected to thermal stress, in particular by elevated temperatures.
- both the air permeability and the diffusion capacity are determined by the pore structure of the cigarette paper, so there is a relationship between these sizes. It proves technically difficult to adjust the diffusion capacity regardless of the air permeability of the paper in the papermaking process.
- the air permeability is in most cases the subject of the paper specification given by the manufacturers of cigarettes, so that, under this requirement, the diffusion capacity results practically from the papermaking process and only can be varied in a small area. Therefore, there is a particular interest in finding papers whose diffusion capacity increases only when needed, namely, just when the temperature of the paper is increased by the ember on the smoldering cigarette.
- the substances in cigarette smoke are determined by a method in which the cigarette is smoked according to standardized specifications. Such a method is described for example in ISO 4387.
- the cigarette is first ignited at the beginning of the first train and then every minute a train at the mouth end of the cigarette with a duration of 2 seconds and a volume of 35 cm 3 performed at a sinusoidal tensile profile on the cigarette.
- the trains are repeated as long as the cigarette until the cigarette falls below a certain predetermined in the standard length.
- the smoke flowing from the mouth end of the cigarette during traction is collected in a Cambridge Filter Pad and this filter is thereafter chemically analyzed for its content of various substances, such as nicotine.
- the gas phase flowing from the mouth end of the cigarette through the Cambridge Filter Pad during trains is collected and also chemically analyzed, for example to determine the level of carbon monoxide in the cigarette smoke.
- the cigarette is therefore in two fluidically different states.
- there is a significant pressure difference typically in the range of 200 Pa to 1500 Pa, between the tobacco-facing inside of the cigarette paper and the outside of the cigarette paper.
- air flows through the cigarette paper in the tobacco part of the cigarette and dilutes the resulting smoke during the move.
- this phase which lasts 2 seconds per draw, the extent of dilution is determined by the air permeability of the paper.
- the cigarette will glow without any appreciable pressure difference between the inside of the tobacco part of the cigarette and the environment, so that the gas transport is determined by the gas concentration difference between the tobacco part and the environment. It is also carbon monoxide through the cigarette paper from the tobacco part and in particular from the region of the cone of gluten in the Ambient air diffuse. In this phase, which lasts 58 seconds per turn, the diffusion capacity for the reduction of carbon monoxide is the relevant parameter.
- the diffusion capacity of the cigarette paper is high and that it is high, in particular in the area of the cone of embers, since at this point the carbon monoxide is formed. It is thus particularly advantageous if the diffusion capacity is high or rises rapidly as soon as the cigarette paper is exposed to elevated temperatures due to the approach of the cone.
- An object of the invention is to provide a cigarette paper having an increased diffusion capacity, which enables reduction of carbon monoxide in the cigarette smoke.
- the invention achieves this object by impregnating or coating the cigarette paper with one or more water-soluble salts which, at relatively low temperatures, i. significantly less than 450 ° C, disintegrate and thereby loosen up the pore structure of the paper on a smoldering cigarette made thereof, so that a significantly better diffusion of carbon monoxide from the cigarette is allowed.
- the water-soluble salt loses more than 20%, preferably more than 25%, more preferably more than 30%, and most preferably more than 35% of its starting material.
- the water-soluble salt is an inorganic salt or a mixture of inorganic salts.
- the water-soluble salt is a hydrogencarbonate, preferably an alkali metal bicarbonate or an ammonium bicarbonate, or a carbonate, preferably an ammonium carbonate.
- a hydrogencarbonate preferably an alkali metal bicarbonate or an ammonium bicarbonate
- a carbonate preferably an ammonium carbonate.
- the water-soluble salt or the alkali metal bicarbonate is a sodium or potassium bicarbonate.
- a mixture of the two salts is also contemplated.
- the European patent application EP 0 758 532 A2 describes the treatment of a filter pad paper or Tippingpapiers inter alia with an alkali metal bicarbonate, but not the treatment of a "cigarette paper" in the true sense, ie a cigarette paper for wrapping the tobacco rod of a cigarette. The goal of this treatment is to make the filter pad paper easier to dissolve in rainwater so that discarded filters are more likely to degrade in the environment.
- the alkali metal bicarbonate has the function of neutralizing a carboxymethylcellulose acid (CMS-H) or a carboxyethylcellulose acid (CEC-H), ie to convert it into corresponding alkali metal salts, for example CMC-NA or CEC-Na.
- CMS-H carboxymethylcellulose acid
- CEC-H carboxyethylcellulose acid
- this disclosure does not suggest that cigarette wrapping papers should be treated in a similar manner where the problem of easier disintegration in water does not arise.
- the alkali metal bicarbonate decomposes at comparatively low temperatures and thus would be suitable for a smoldering cigarette, the pore structure of the paper so mecaniclockern that improved diffusion of carbon monoxide from the cigarette is allowed.
- a similar filter paper or Tippingpapier is in the EP 0 758 695 A2 disclosed.
- the water-soluble salt or the alkali metal bicarbonate is a potassium bicarbonate.
- the content of the water-soluble salt is 0.1% to 10%, preferably 1% to 6%, particularly preferably 3% to 6% of the paper pulp. These levels can also be achieved by a mixture of different water-soluble salts.
- the water-soluble salt is sodium bicarbonate with a content of at least 4%, preferably 4% to 10%, particularly preferably 4% to 6% of the paper pulp.
- the water-soluble salt is potassium bicarbonate of at least 3%, preferably 3% to 10%, more preferably 3% to 6% of the paper pulp.
- the water-soluble salt is ammonium carbonate with at least 4%, preferably 4% to 10%, more preferably 4% to 6% of the paper pulp.
- the water-soluble salt is contained in partial areas of the cigarette paper, preferably in discrete strip-shaped partial areas.
- the subregions are designed such that they form one or more bands in the circumferential direction of a tobacco rod on a cigarette made from the cigarette paper.
- cigarette paper as known in the art, is already provided with diffusion-reducing, fire-retardant stripes in order to achieve self-extinguishment of a cigarette produced therefrom in a standardized test (ASTM E2187-04).
- these fire retardant strips are arranged to form ribbons on the cigarette circumferentially.
- Such cigarettes have increased levels of carbon monoxide because less carbon monoxide can diffuse from the cigarette through the fire retardant strips.
- the subregions are separated from fire-retardant areas, preferably fire-retardant strips.
- the term "separated” is intended to mean that the subregions are delimited from the fire retardant areas However, also a certain overlap into consideration, which may be caused for example by production technology.
- the cigarette paper is impregnated (soaked) with the water-soluble salt.
- the cigarette paper is coated with the water-soluble salt on one or both sides.
- the content of the above-defined water-soluble salt is 0.1% to 10%, preferably 1% to 6%, particularly preferably 3% to 6% of the paper pulp.
- the above-defined water-soluble salt is a sodium hydrogencarbonate with a content of at least 4%, preferably 4% to 10%, particularly preferably 4% to 6% of the paper pulp.
- the above-defined water-soluble salt is a potassium hydrogencarbonate having at least 3%, preferably 3% to 10%, more preferably 3% to 6% of the paper pulp.
- the above-defined water-soluble salt is an ammonium carbonate having at least 4%, preferably 4% to 10%, more preferably 4% to 6% of the paper pulp.
- the above-defined water-soluble salt is contained in discrete portions of the cigarette paper, preferably in strip-shaped portions.
- the subregions with the above-defined water-soluble salt are designed such that they form one or more bands in the circumferential direction of a tobacco rod on a cigarette made from the cigarette paper.
- the subregions are separated from fire-retardant areas.
- the cigarette paper is impregnated (soaked) with the above-defined water-soluble salt.
- the cigarette paper is coated with the water-soluble salt defined above on one or both sides.
- the object of the invention is further achieved by a cigarette which comprises a cigarette paper according to the invention.
- the cigarette can be produced on conventional cigarette machines from the cigarette paper with the aid of further, sometimes optional components such as tobacco, tipping paper, filters, filter wrap paper and glue.
- the water-soluble salt is an inorganic salt. Mixtures of inorganic salts in the aqueous solution are also contemplated.
- the water-soluble salt in the aqueous solution is a bicarbonate, preferably an alkali metal bicarbonate or an ammonium bicarbonate, or a carbonate, preferably an ammonium carbonate. Mixtures of these salts in the aqueous solution are also contemplated.
- the water-soluble salt or the alkali metal bicarbonate is a sodium or potassium hydrogencarbonate. Mixtures of the two salts in the aqueous solution are also contemplated.
- the water-soluble salt or the alkali metal bicarbonate is a potassium bicarbonate.
- the content of the at least one water-soluble salt is 0.1% to 10%, preferably 1% to 6%, particularly preferably 3% to 6%, of the paper pulp of the cigarette paper produced by the process.
- step (2) of the method the water-soluble salt is applied in partial areas of the cigarette paper, preferably in discrete strip-shaped partial areas.
- the subregions are designed such that they form one or more bands in the circumferential direction of a tobacco rod on a cigarette made from the cigarette paper.
- the subregions are separated from fire-retardant areas.
- step (2) of the method the aqueous solution is applied using a size press or a film press.
- the application of the aqueous solution in the size press or film press of a paper machine takes place over the whole area on one or both sides of the paper.
- the paper in the paper machine is substantially impregnated with the solution.
- step (2) of the method the application of the aqueous solution is carried out using a printing or spraying technique.
- aqueous solution by means of a printing process or by spraying in or after the paper machine offers the possibility of applying the solution more superficially and only on one side of the paper. This can be beneficial if the solution is the changed the optical properties of the paper. Then preferably the solution is applied to the later side of the tobacco facing the paper.
- the subregions are separated from fire-retardant areas.
- the invention is based on the surprising finding that a cigarette paper with an increased diffusion capacity can be achieved by impregnating or coating the paper with certain salts, shown here with sodium bicarbonate, potassium bicarbonate and ammonium carbonate, which are already at comparatively low temperatures, ie significantly lower 450 ° C, decay and thus open the pore structure of the cigarette paper. It has been shown that the increase in the diffusion capacity of the cigarette paper during the thermal decomposition can be partially increased by more than double. Such an increase in the increase in diffusion capacity can significantly contribute to the reduction of harmful carbon monoxide in the smoke of cigarettes made from these papers.
- Example 1 Preparation of cigarette paper with sodium bicarbonate, potassium bicarbonate or ammonium carbonate
- This is a common cigarette paper, so that comparable results can be expected with other cigarette papers and in principle there are no restrictions on the selection of the cigarette paper, for example in terms of air permeability, diffusion capacity, fiber and filler composition or basis weight.
- This cigarette paper was impregnated with aqueous solutions of sodium bicarbonate (NaHCO 3 ), potassium hydrogen carbonate (KHCO 3 ) or ammonium carbonate ((NH 4 ) 2 CO 3 ) in various concentrations in the size press.
- NaHCO 3 sodium bicarbonate
- KHCO 3 potassium hydrogen carbonate
- ammonium carbonate (NH 4 ) 2 CO 3 )
- the diffusion capacity of the cigarette papers produced in Example 1 was determined using a CO 2 Diffusivity Meter from Sodim.
- the diffusion capacity of the papers at 23 ° C and 50% humidity was uniformly about 1.75 cm / s. After being exposed to a temperature of 230 ° C for 30 minutes, the papers were conditioned to 23 ° C and 50% RH and the diffusion capacity was measured. The absolute measurements are given in Table 1.
- Table 1 shows that the diffusion capacity of papers with sodium bicarbonate, potassium bicarbonate or ammonium carbonate at any given content in the pulp is higher than that of papers with trisodium citrate or trisodium / tripotassium citrate.
- the highest diffusion capacity measured with citrate is 2.616 cm / s at 7% trisodium / tripotassium citrate.
- Higher values than 2.616 cm / s are achieved with sodium bicarbonate and ammonium carbonate from a content of 4% and with potassium bicarbonate even from a content of 3%.
- a diffusion capacity of 2.7 cm / s and more is achieved only with sodium bicarbonate ( ⁇ 6%), potassium bicarbonate ( ⁇ 4%) or ammonium carbonate ( ⁇ 5%), but not with the citrates.
- the examples further show that an increase in the diffusion capacity of more than 0.9 cm / s, starting from the initial value at 23 ° C, in this case of 1.75 cm / s, or a percentage increase in the diffusion capacity by more than 50%, also based on the initial value at 23 ° C, can not be achieved with citrates as conventional Brandsalzen, but with the inorganic salts used.
- citrates as conventional Brandsalzen, but with the inorganic salts used.
- at least 4% sodium bicarbonate or at least 3% potassium hydrogen carbonate or at least 4% ammonium carbonate must be used.
- the improvement that can be achieved seems to be getting smaller and smaller with a content exceeding 6%, but it does not come to a standstill up to a content of 8%, so that even here a reasonable upper limit of about 10% can be drawn.
- the potassium hydrogencarbonate proves to be superior to the sodium hydrogencarbonate or the ammonium carbonate for the intended effect, so that it can be used with particular preference.
- the selected inorganic salt at 230 ° C is at least about 30% to 35%, presumably already at lower levels, e.g. from 15% or 25%, of its initial mass.
