Definitions

  • Another object is to achieve this result without impairment of the general appearance, texture, aroma, and desirable smoking qualities of the product.
  • Another object is to produce a tobacco product, and smokable articles prepared from it, having the advantageous characteristics referred to, by a procedure which is thoroughly practicable on a commercial scale and economically feasible.
  • the composition of natural tobacco leaf includes aromatic and resinous substances, alkaloids, sugars and salts of various kinds, and crude fibers.
  • the aromatic and resinous substances provide desirable smell and taste during pyrolysis.
  • the burning of the fibers produces only the characteristic smoke of burning cellulose and contributes very little to the aroma. Not only are they not essentialto the smoking qualities, but they are definitely undesirable because among the products of pyrolysis are tars which may be harmful.
  • Another objective is to provide an improved tobacco product in sheet form having a reduced content of the cellu-losic fibers whose presence contribute-s little to smoking enjoyment and which create products of combination that may be harmful.
  • the original tobacco may be in leaf or other form, preferably macerated or comminuted in preparation for The extraction is facilitated by the use of hot Water, and generally withdraws from 25% to 60% by weight of the starting material.
  • the fibrous residue Patented June 14, 1966 ice may be discarded at once, although (as indicated in dotted lines) a further extraction with organic solvents may be resorted to, if desired, to recover selected values still retained by the fibers.
  • Ethyl ether, other low others, acetone, or other low boiling ketones are examples of such solvents.
  • the non-combustible fibers should be of nontoxic kind, bondable to produce an absorbent paper by conventional paper-making equipment and techniques. Glass fibers are excellent for the purpose. Absestos shorts are also suitable, and are preferred because they are less expensive.
  • the fibers may range in size from diameters as low as 0.05 micron t-o diameters of the order of 5.5 microns or even more. Blends of these with each other, or with other inorganic fibers may be used. To facilitate the bonding together of the fibers during the formation of the paper web, some natural cellulosic fibers may be used, e.g., beaten wood pulp fiber.
  • the basis weight of the paper is in the range of 8 to pounds per ream, which is roughly equivalent to the Weight characteristics of natural tobacco leaf.
  • mineral fillers can be added to regulate the physical nature of the paper and to control the rate of burning of the final product.
  • alumina is effective because it becomes hydrated during the papermaking process and subsequently liberates the water to absorb heat (and thereby control burning rate) during the ultimate burning of the smokable article.
  • the tobacco extract is introduced into the paper after a sel-fasustaining web has been formed.
  • This extract may be only the aqueous extract (suitably concentrated to any desired degree), or it may include the substances obtained from the optional organic extraction procedure.
  • the application of the extracted tobacco material may be achieved in any appropriate manner, as by spraying, saturating, or otherwise.
  • the dry solids of the tobacco extract should preferably be present in the resultant sheet in the same proportion as, or a proportion smaller than, that which existed in the original natural tobacco material. For example, if from 25 to 60% of tobacco material is withdrawn during the extraction, then from 15 to of the material may be introduced into the paper web.
  • Combustible diluents may be added to the tobacco .liquor before it is applied to the paper web. Such diluents are of an origin other than tobacco and can be employed .to tone down the tobacco effect and produce a more neutral smoke. Any aqueously soluble combustible material that produces a neutral non-toxic smoke, such as water-soluble cellulose derivatives can be used. Dextrin has been found to be a desirable additive for this purpose, but other water-soluble organic materials, of non-toxic character can be used.
  • the final impregnated sheet can be employed in various Ways in the preparation of smokable articles. For example, in the manufacture of cigarettes or smoking tobacco it would be shredded, then used by itself, or blended with natural tobacco, in conventional cigarette-making machinery. In the manufacture of cigars, it may be retained in larger sheet form. In any case, the basic manufacturing procedures do not require any essential modification.
  • the characteristics of the ultimate smokable article, whatever its nature, are high-lighted by the absence, from the products of combustion, of the major portion of the tars that would otherwise be present if the tobacco fibers had not been removed and replaced.
  • the non-combustible fibers do not materially alter the burning qualities, nor the texture or appearance, of the article except in regard to the ash. In cigarettes, for example, the burning produces more ash than usual. If fusible fibers, such as glass, are employed in the carrier sheet this ash will be solid and adherent. If the carrier sheet is composed of asbestos, Carborundum or potassium titanate fibers, the ash will be non-adherent.
  • a paper was produced, composed of 40% glass microfibers, 50% asbestos shorts, and 10% beaten unbleached kraft wood pulp.
  • the glass fibers had diameters whose average was in the range of 0.75 to 1. 6 microns.
  • the kraft pulp was of a kind whose drainage rate was 60 (Canadian standard freeness).
  • the basis weight of the paper was 14 pounds, i.e., it weighed 14 pounds per ream (480 sheets, x
  • This paper was saturated with the tobacco extract by repeated spraying and drying, until the tobacco solids equalled the weight of the original sheet, i.e., the finished product was composed of Percent Base paper Tobacco 40 Dextrin 20 This product was then shredded and made into cigarettes, which were flavorful and entirely satisfying from a smokers standpoint.
  • Example II The procedure of Example I was followed, with the exception that the amount of glass fibers was halved, and the balance replaced by activated alumina. The product was shredded and made into cigarettes, which were satisfactory and had a good taste and aroma.
  • a cigarette whose filler includes shreds of paper formed essentially of non-combustible non-toxic fibers and having tobacco extract material incorporated therewith.
  • a process of making a tobacco product for use in a smokable article which comprises 1) treating tobacco (a) to separate from it a substantial proportion of the fibrous material whose pyrolysis generates tars, and
  • a process of making a smokable tobacco product for use as cigarette filler material which comprises 1) treating tobacco (a) to separate from it a substantial proportion of the fibrous material whose pyrolysis generiates tars, and
  • the tobacco treatment (1) includes a first extraction of the tobacco with water, and a subsequent additional extraction of the residual fibrous material with an organic solvent, both solutions being introduced into said fibrous sheet (2).
