DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Object of the Invention 1 (Field of Industrial Application) The present invention relates to an improvement in a cigarette filter that removes specific components from tobacco smoke.

(Prior art) In recent years, the theory that tobacco is harmful has become a big issue, and fiber filters (
(Problem to be solved by the invention) In the conventional fibrous filters mentioned above, Although tar components are collected in tobacco smoke, the collection effect is low, and aldehydes 1 such as acrolein, which are gas phase components in tobacco smoke, are not adsorbed and collected.

As a method of adsorbing and collecting tar components and harmful gas phase components, activated carbon powder can be added to fibers or paper by utilizing the property of activated carbon to selectively adsorb gas phase components, or granular activated carbon can be added to fibers or paper. There is one that is placed directly into a cylindrical paper body and has an acetate filter wrapped around the mouthpiece.

However, although the above-mentioned filter using activated carbon can collect gas phase components to some extent, the effect of collecting tar components is still unsatisfactory.

Generally speaking, the effect of collecting tar components increases as the suction resistance value of the filter (the value expressed in terms of the height in the water necessary for 20 cc/filtration of air to pass through the filter) increases. If the suction resistance value is increased unnecessarily, a problem arises in that the smoking taste of the cigarette is deteriorated.

0, tar filtration speed is 8% and 7%, which are lower values than others, and acrolein is observed in the smoke passing through the filter in each sample, and the rate at which the other samples (within the scope of the present invention) pass through the filter is low. Acrolein is not detected in the smoke. In addition, the above sample No. 1 and sample No.
The reason why the tar filtration speed of 7 (marked with * in the table) is low can be judged to be due to the apparent low porosity (2.5% = less than 5%) and the small specific surface area, and the high suction resistance value is due to the low apparent porosity (2.5% = less than 5%). Similarly, the apparent appearance can be determined to be due to the low porosity.
