Definitions
- Patent No. 202011453514.4 entitled “USE OF SPHERICAL CARBON IN FLUE GAS ADSORPTION OF HEAT-NOT-BURN TOBACCO PRODUCT” filed with the China National Intellectual Property Administration on Dec. 11, 2020 , which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety.
- the present disclosure relates to the field of cigarette smoke adsorption of heat-not-burn tobacco products, and specifically, to use of a spherical carbon in cigarette smoke adsorption of a heat-not-burn tobacco product.
- novel tobacco products are developing rapidly. Novel tobacco products can be divided into two prominent types: smoky products and smokeless products.
- the smoky products mainly include e-cigarettes and heat-not-burn (HNB) cigarettes, with the latter divided into a tobacco type and a non-tobacco type.
- HNB heat-not-burn
- the materials are conventional shag tobaccos, flake tobaccos or reconstituted tobacco stems.
- the non-tobacco-type products the principal material in the cartridge is herbal granules, which do not contain nicotine.
- Aroma beads may be arranged between the material and the mouthpiece and different aroma beads may be provided for different flavors.
- Tobacco-type heat-not-burn cigarettes retain the tobacco flavor to a greater extent and are more acceptable for the average consumer.

Abstract
Use of spherical carbon in flue gas adsorption of a heat-not-burn tobacco product. The spherical carbon of a particular structural parameter, as well as doping it in a cartridge, is particularly advantageous for improving the content of harmful substances in flue gas due to the excellent selectivity and specific adsorption effect of a large number of carbonyl compounds produced during the heating of the heat-not-burn tobacco product, and even undesirable adsorption of nicotine is significantly improved.
Description
- The present application claims priority to Patent No.
202011453514.4 entitled "USE OF SPHERICAL CARBON IN FLUE GAS ADSORPTION OF HEAT-NOT-BURN TOBACCO PRODUCT" filed with the China National Intellectual Property Administration on Dec. 11, 2020 - The present disclosure relates to the field of cigarette smoke adsorption of heat-not-burn tobacco products, and specifically, to use of a spherical carbon in cigarette smoke adsorption of a heat-not-burn tobacco product.
- Along with the increasing attention from smokers to health, the appeal for "healthy smoking" is also becoming stronger. In the tobacco industry, compared with traditional cigarettes, novel tobacco products are developing rapidly. Novel tobacco products can be divided into two prominent types: smoky products and smokeless products. The smoky products mainly include e-cigarettes and heat-not-burn (HNB) cigarettes, with the latter divided into a tobacco type and a non-tobacco type. In a cartridge of tobacco-type products, the materials are conventional shag tobaccos, flake tobaccos or reconstituted tobacco stems. In contrast, for the non-tobacco-type products, the principal material in the cartridge is herbal granules, which do not contain nicotine. Aroma beads may be arranged between the material and the mouthpiece and different aroma beads may be provided for different flavors. Tobacco-type heat-not-burn cigarettes retain the tobacco flavor to a greater extent and are more acceptable for the average consumer.
- Compared with the conventional cigarettes, the cigarette cartridge of a heat-not-burn cigarette is only heated, but not burned due to the special temperature of the smoking set, which greatly reduced the release of the harmful and potentially harmful constituents (HPHCs). However, since the tobacco section in the heat-not-burn cigarette cartridge is usually composed of tobacco flakes, reconstituted tobacco, recombined tobacco or herbal particles that contain a large amount of smoke-generating agents, flavorants, essences and the like, and the smoke-generating agents are mainly composed of propylene glycol and glycerol, a large amount of carbonyl compounds are generated during the heating process. Such carbonyl compounds include, but are not limited to, formaldehyde, acetaldehyde, acetone, acrolein, propionaldehyde, crotonaldehyde, 2-butanone, butyraldehyde and the like, which are considered as important HPHCs in cigarette smoke. In particular, the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) lists formaldehyde as a Group I carcinogen; acetaldehyde is listed in Group 2B and possibly has nasal cilium toxicity; and acrolein is cytotoxic. How to effectively reduce the harm is an important orientation for exploring novel tobaccos, particularly the heat-not-burn cigarettes.
- In order to solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the present disclosure provides use of a spherical carbon in cigarette smoke adsorption of a heat-not-burn tobacco product.
- According to embodiments of the present disclosure, the heat-not-burn tobacco product is selected from at least one of an electrically heated heat-not-burn tobacco product and a carbon-heated heat-not-burn tobacco product. For example, the "cigarette smoke" may be a gas emitted by the heat-not-burn tobacco product under normal pressure, or a gas generated by the tobacco product under a negative pressure (e.g., by inhaling).
- According to embodiments of the present disclosure, the "cigarette smoke" may be gaseous and/or misty in appearance. For example, the "cigarette smoke" is generated by a cartridge in the heat-not-burn tobacco product in a heat-not-burn condition. The mode of heating may be internal heating, external heating or hybrid internal/external heating. The internal heating means that the heating element is surrounded by the cartridge and the heat can be concentrated in a cigarette bin. The external heating means that the cartridge is inserted into a smoking set for heating, and the heat generated by the smoking set is conducted to the surface of the cartridge.

The tobacco may be selected from at least one of a reconstituted tobacco and a recombined tobacco.

The composition of tobacco leaves may be influenced by genetics, agricultural practices, soil and nutrients, weather conditions, plant diseases, leaf location, harvesting and sun-curing procedures. The tobacco-replacing herb is selected from a non-tobacco herb that produces smoke upon low-temperature heating, for example, a herbal product prepared from tea leaves, ginkgo leaves, flowers and other natural herbs.
