Definitions

  • the invention relates to a tobacco sheet of reconstituted tobacco which comprises between 50% and 70% ground tobacco ribs and between 10% and 20% tobacco dust. Furthermore, the invention relates to a rod-shaped smoking article comprising such a tobacco sheet. The invention also relates to a method of producing tobacco sheet from reconstituted tobacco comprising between 50% and 70% ground tobacco ribs and between 10% and 20% tobacco dust.
  • rod-shaped smoking articles such as cigarettes
  • tobacco material cost is determined by their proportion of tobacco. Therefore, the saving of tobacco material with regard to a possible cost savings gains more and more importance.
  • various measures are known.
  • One possibility is to produce the rod-shaped smoking article as a so-called double-wrap article with reduced tobacco content. The outer diameter of such a smoking article is unchanged compared to conventional smoking articles, while the effective diameter of the tobacco rod is reduced.
  • a cigarette that has a tobacco rod of reduced diameter. This is surrounded by a sandwich casing, which consists of a directly resting on the tobacco rod, smooth inner shell and a likewise smooth outer shell and arranged between the inner and the outer shell longitudinally coined intermediate sheath.
  • the wrappings may be made of tobacco foil.
  • the tobacco foil inserted as an intermediate wrap or liner is provided with a three-dimensional structure.
  • the tobacco foil is crimped so that it has parallel longitudinal grooves.
  • the embossing or crimping there are always undesirable breaks in the tobacco sheet.
  • the object is achieved by a tobacco sheet of reconstituted tobacco which comprises between 50% and 70% ground tobacco ribs and between 10% and 20% tobacco dust, this tobacco sheet being formed by the tobacco sheet comprising between 20% and 30% cellulose fibers have a fiber orientation direction.
  • such a tobacco sheet can be processed well, whereby, in particular, the probability of damage or even breakage of the film, for example during crimping, that is to say the introduction of a three-dimensional structure into the tobacco sheet, is reduced to a minimum is.
  • the film receives the embossed or crimped structure very well and is very tear-resistant. This improved processability and increased tear resistance is due, among other things, to the existing fiber orientation.
  • the ground tobacco ribs are obtainable by a high-consistency fibrillating grinding, in particular at a substance density of greater than 15%. Furthermore, the short fiber content of the cellulose fibers is in particular at a maximum of 30%.
  • the tobacco ribs are ground fibrillating, i. with as far as possible preservation of the fiber length "frayed". For this purpose, for example, a Refinermahlung comes into consideration.
  • special attention can be paid to the preservation of the long fibers. Due to the addition of low proportion of short fibers, a high long fiber content is achieved in the material of the tobacco sheet. This has an advantageous effect on the mechanical properties of the tobacco sheet, so that it shows an extremely low tendency to break during crimping.
  • the limited short fiber content can be achieved, for example, by admixing short fiber pulps.
  • Pulp of birch, beech, poplar or eucalyptus, for example, is suitable for this purpose.
  • the cellulose fibers are obtained from softwood pulp and / or from pulp of annual plants.
  • Cellulosic fibers having a high fiber length can be obtained, for example, from European or Canadian pine or spruce which provide a softwood pulp.
  • the pulp of annual plants is obtained, for example, from flax, hemp, sisal or bagasse.
  • a material thickness of the tobacco foil is between 250 ⁇ m and 400 ⁇ m. This value has also proved to be advantageous, for example with regard to the preservation of the embossed structure, the tear strength and the further processing of the film.
  • the tobacco sheet has a tensile strength which is greater than 20 N, based on an elongated test strip consisting of the tobacco foil with a width transverse to a tensile direction of 15 mm and a material thickness of between 250 ⁇ m and 400 ⁇ m.
  • the tear strength is determined on test strips having a material thickness of between 300 ⁇ m and 363 ⁇ m.
  • a three-dimensional structure can be impressed or crimped efficiently and sustainably in a tobacco foil of the stated material thickness and with the aforementioned tear resistance. At the same time, the likelihood of the tobacco foil breaking during this process is reduced to an absolute minimum.
  • the tobacco foil has a three-dimensional structure consisting of alternately adjacent elongate elevations and depressions, wherein the elevations and depressions extend in a structure longitudinal direction, and wherein a fiber preform direction of the cellulose fibers is oriented transversely to the structure longitudinal direction.
  • the fiber biasing direction and the structure longitudinal direction include an angle which is between 45 ° and 90 °. Such an angle has been found in practice to be particularly advantageous.
  • the introduced into the tobacco sheet three-dimensional structure of the alternately adjacent elongated elevation and depressions has a structure longitudinal direction. This structural longitudinal direction is oriented parallel to a longitudinal extension direction of the adjacent elevations and depressions.
  • the tobacco foil is produced in a paper process.
  • a so-called slurry process which is likewise often used to produce tobacco sheets, is not used. Both the paper process and the slurry process are in " Tobacco Encyclopedia ", Ernst Voges, 1984, publisher TJI, in Part II in the" Sheet Tobacco "chapter, beginning on page 389 , described in detail.
  • a mixture of tobacco dust, ribs and other components such as partially whole leaves is first crushed and extracted in water. This extract is then concentrated by evaporation, for example, and retained for later use. The insoluble residue is further softened so that the resulting fibrous material can be made into a paper-like material in a modified papermaking machine.
  • This endless material is then dried and re-treated to the desired extent with the previously concentrated extract, so that the desired taste can be adjusted.
  • the resulting impregnated material is dried before being sent for further processing.
  • the dry tobacco materials are finely divided and usually mixed with a small amount of binder.
  • the resulting mass is poured onto an endless metal strip on which it is dried.
  • the tobacco sheet according to an advantageous embodiment comprises 60% ground tobacco ribs, 15% tobacco dust and 25% cellulose fibers.
  • the tobacco sheet is brought, for example, to a moisture content of between 12% and 14%. This can be done by storage in an appropriate atmosphere. If the tobacco film has the desired moisture content, it is packaged airtight for transport, for example, wrapped in cling film.
  • the tobacco foil is rolled up on a reel. This has for example a usual for the production of kingsize cigarettes width of 24mm. Furthermore, it is particularly provided that the tobacco sheet has a tensile strength of 6% to 10%, wherein the elongation is considered to break or crack. In particular, the tobacco foil has a basis weight which is between 80 g / m 2 and 130 g / m 2 .
  • a rod-shaped smoking article comprising a tobacco sheet according to one or more of the aforementioned embodiments, wherein the tobacco sheet on an inner side surrounds a tobacco rod, and wherein the structure longitudinal direction is oriented at least approximately in the direction of a longitudinal axial direction of the smoking article, and on an outer side is surrounded by a wrapping paper, wherein the elevations and depressions of the tobacco sheet in longitudinal axial direction formed channels between the tobacco sheet and the wrapping paper.
  • the proportion of tobacco can be reduced in such a rod-shaped article, whereby this is more economical to produce.
  • the quality of the rod-shaped smoking article is improved by the use of the tobacco sheet according to aspects of the invention over conventional rod-shaped articles, since the tobacco sheet used exhibits a much lower tendency to break when producing its three-dimensional structure.
  • the rod-shaped smoking article has the same or similar advantages as already mentioned with regard to the tobacco foil.
  • a ratio between a width of the tobacco foil and a width of a wrapping paper of the rod-shaped smoking article is between 1.05 and 1.2.
  • This size ratio between tobacco foil and wrapping paper is useful for making various types of smoking articles such as kingsize cigarettes, slim cigarettes or super slim cigarettes. It has proven to be particularly advantageous in practice.
  • the object is further achieved by a method for producing a tobacco sheet from reconstituted tobacco, which comprises between 50% and 70% ground tobacco ribs and between 10% and 20% tobacco dust, this method being further developed by producing the tobacco sheet in addition to the ground tobacco ribs and the tobacco dust is used between 20% and 30% cellulosic fibers, and the cellulosic fibers are given a fiber orientation in manufacture.
  • the preparation of the tobacco sheet is carried out in particular in a paper process.
  • the three-dimensional structure is produced, for example, in a crimping process or in an embossing process.
  • the grinding of the tobacco ribs takes place for example in a refiner.
  • the grinding of the tobacco ribs is a wet process, there is no dry grinding.
  • the method is developed in that the three-dimensional structure is produced such that the fiber orientation direction and the structural longitudinal direction include an angle that is between 45 ° and 90 °.
