Definitions
- the present invention relates to a process for the production of a cylindrical, carbonaceous heat source having at least one longitudinal air flow channel extending through it, the surface of which is coated.
- Extrusion is a well known manufacturing process used in many industries, including the food, metal, plastic and ceramic industries, for the production of elongate rods and tubes with a fixed cross section.
- a plastic feedstock is pushed or drawn through a die having the inverse geometry to the desired shape of the extruded article.
- solid rods are produced by extruding the feedstock through a die orifice.
- One or more hollow passageways may be created in an extruded rod by mounting one or more pins, or mandrels, in the die orifice.
- EP-A-O 914 239 discloses a die for simultaneously extruding one or more fluid streams onto a moving web to form a coating layer thereon.
- a coating layer may be directly applied to the surface of an extruded article in the process of/ co-extrusion, in which two or more different materials are extruded through different orifices in the same die.
- the orifices are arranged so that the extruded materials merge and weld together into a laminar structure as they leave the die.
- EP-A-O 662 385 and EP-A-O 491 093 both disclose co-extrusion processes for the production of a tube having two or more concentric layers.
- co-extrusion has been found to be unsuitable for applying a coating layer having a thickness of less than about 1mm, because problems are encountered when the die orifice through which the coating is extruded becomes too narrow.
- high viscosity feedstocks are used in extrusion in order to obtain mechanical stability so that the extruded articles do not deform under gravity during the extrusion or during subsequent handling.
- forcing a high viscosity feedstock through a narrow orifice creates large shear forces inside the orifice. High pressures are therefore required to force the high viscosity feedstock through the die and to prevent blockages of the die orifice.
- abrasion of the die is high, which will significantly reduce the lifetime of the die. This is a particular problem if the feedstock contains hard, abrasive particles such as ceramic particles.
- DE-A-35 25 530 and DE-A-102 49 141 both describe extrusion processes in which a coating layer is applied to the inner surfaces of an extruded polymer tube. In the process of DE- A-35 25 530 a cylindrical layer of the coating material is formed, then applied directly to the inner surface of an extruded tube and mechanically pressed against that surface by means of a mandrel.
- the coating material is injected onto the inner surface of the tube through one or more feed channels in a mandrel mounted within the die orifice.
- the coating material is then mechanically pressed against the inner surface by the end of the mandrel, which is of an increased diameter compared to the rest of the mandrel.
- Heated smoking articles such as heated cigarettes, typically incorporate a combustible fuel element, or heat source.
- An aerosol is generated by the transfer of heat from the heat source to a physically separate aerosol forming material, which may be located within, around, or downstream of the heat source.
- the heat source may be formed by extrusion and advantageously comprises at least one longitudinal air flow channel extending along the entire length of the heat source.
- the at least one air flow channel provides a controlled amount of convective heating of the aerosol-generating substance.
- the inner surface of the air flow channels may be partially or entirely coated where it is desired to reduce the convective heat transfer.
- the coating may advantageously reduce or substantially prevent the inflow of combustion by-products from the combustible heat source into the airflow channel or channels.
- the coating may also advantageously reduce or prevent the activation of combustion of the heat source during puffing.
- US-A-5 040 551 describes a process for the production of a carbonaceous fuel element for a heated smoking article.
- the fuel element has one or more longitudinally extending passageways, the surfaces of which are coated with a microporous layer of solid particulate material.
- the coating is applied to the surfaces of the passageways of a pre-formed fuel element by spraying, dipping or by flowing a suspension of the coating through the fuel element.
- the coating is then dried in order to remove the solvent from the suspension.
- the passageways of the fuel elements may have a diameter of less than about 3 mm, sometimes less than 1mm, and a very thin coating layer is therefore required.
- a very thin coating layer is therefore required.
- the coating material is of a low viscosity or contains hard, abrasive materials.
- the fuel elements are typically formed of a carbonaceous material which is porous and with existing coating techniques it is found that the coating material is absorbed into the pores at the surface of the passageways. This makes it difficult to control the formation of the coating and also leads to non-uniform coating layers, with a poorly defined interface between the carbonaceous material and the coating layer.
- a process for the production of a cylindrical, carbonaceous heat source for a heated smoking article comprising the steps of:
- cylindrical is used throughout the specification to describe an extruded heat source having a substantially constant cross section along its length and includes, for example, cylinders having a circular, elliptical or rectangular cross section.
- the coating compound "wets" the inner surface of the air flow channel. This means that the coating compound spreads out over the surface of the air flow channel of its own accord as a result of thermodynamic driving forces and in particular, as a result of the forces of adhesion between the coating compound and the inner surface of the air flow channel.
- the degree to which a fluid wets a solid surface is a thermodynamic variable that depends on the interfacial tensions of the solid-liquid interface and the liquid-gas interface.
- sessile drop test measures the contact angle between the interface of a droplet and the horizontal surface on which the droplet is placed. The higher the degree of wetting of a surface by a liquid, the more the liquid spreads out on the surface and the lower the contact angle will be.
- the contact angle is typically measured with a goniometer, using cameras and software to capture and analyse the profile of the drop.
- the sessile drop test is described, for example, in the Encyclopedia of Surface and Colloid Science, Second Edition, 2006, p1528-9 (published by CRC Press).
- a coating compound which wets a surface of the material forming the extruded heat source it is preferable to select a coating compound which wets a surface of the material forming the extruded heat source to a high degree.
- the coating layer As a result of the way in which the coating layer is formed, it is possible to provide a homogeneous layer of the coating compound on the surface simply by bringing the coating compound into contact with the surface during extrusion. The coating compound will then spread out over the surface of the air flow channel of its own accord as the cylindrical heat source is extruded. This effect will occur irrespective of the position at which the coating compound is fed into the air flow channel and there is therefore no need to inject the coating compound adjacent the inner surface of the air flow channel. Instead, the coating compound may be fed into the centre of the air flow channel, away from the inner surfaces thereof, through a feed passageway extending through the centre of the mandrel. This arrangement simplifies the apparatus required for the coating process and significantly reduces the level of precision that is required in the application of the coating layer compared to prior art processes.
- the coating layer applied in the process of the present invention is substantially uniform in composition, structure and thickness over the entire inner surface of the longitudinal air flow channel and the surface of the coating layer is substantially smooth. Furthermore, surface deformations at the inner surface of the air flow channel have been found to be smoothed by the coating. Weaknesses in the coating layer which would otherwise be caused as a result of such deformations are therefore substantially eliminated. These advantageous surface properties are a result of the coating layer being formed due to thermodynamic forces, rather than by the mechanical application of pressure.
- the coating layer will not be smooth, since the inevitable imperfections in the surface of the mandrel and the extruded article cause imperfections in the surface of the coating layer.
- the coating compound is not significantly absorbed into the carbonaceous material of the heat source, even when the carbonaceous material has a high porosity and a relatively low viscosity coating compound is used.
- the coating layer is therefore uniform and well defined, with a sharp interface and good adhesion between the surface of the air flow channel and the coating layer.
- the process of the present invention it is possible to apply a coating to the inner surface of a longitudinal air flow channel of an extruded cylindrical heat source during the extrusion process, using much simpler apparatus than required in the prior art processes.
- the extrusion step and the coating step take place substantially simultaneously.
- the process of the present invention is therefore an efficient, single step process which takes a similar amount of time as a simple extrusion process.
- the process is also suitable for industrial scale production of heat sources at relatively high speed.
- the coated heat sources formed by the process of the present invention are suitable for use in a variety of electrically heated smoking articles, such as electrically heated cigarettes.
- the coating in the air flow channels of the heat source may perform one or more functions including, but not limited to the decrease and stabilisation of the inner walls of the heat source during smoking, the prevention of the release of solid particulate matter into the mainstream smoke and the prevention of the release of carbon monoxide into the mainstream smoke.
- the process of the present invention is suitable for use with a wide variety of coating compounds, since the parameters of the process can be adapted and controlled to suit the properties of the materials being used.
- the thickness of the coating layer formed in step (b) can also be predictably controlled.
- the thickness of a particular coating compound formed using the process of the present invention can readily be predicted by the skilled man through the application of known thermodynamic principles, as described in D. Quere, Annu. Rev. Fluid Mech., vol. 31 (1999), pages 347-384.
- the thickness of the coating layer can be altered by changing the viscosity of the coating compound, or the extrusion velocity, or both.
- the thickness of the coating layer applied to the surface of the air flow channel is not affected by the diameter of the feed passageway in the mandrel, through which the coating compound is fed.
- the process of the present invention also has the advantage that, unlike in the prior art processes, it is possible to apply coating compounds containing hard particles, since the flow channel may have a sufficient diameter to prevent blockage and significant abrasion by the hard particles.
- the coating compound is a suspension of particles in a liquid solvent.
- Such suspensions will typically have a low volume content of particles and a low viscosity, which makes it difficult to apply them to the surface of the air flow channel using existing techniques.
- the use of suspensions in processes according to the invention has been found to result in a coating layer of superior uniformity and stability.
- the process further comprises the step of drying the extruded heat source.
- the drying step may be conducted at ambient temperature, or may be assisted by the application of heat, pressure, or a combination of both.
- removal of solvent from both the extruded cylindrical heat source and the coating compound will be desired during a drying step.
- a drying step will usually be desired when the coating compound is a suspension, in order to remove the liquid phase of the suspension. After drying, the particles of the suspension form a uniform, dense layer.
- the shrinkage of the coating layer during the drying step and any heating steps will be high, which makes it possible to reduce the thickness of the coating still further.
- the degree of shrinkage of the coating layer will typically be different to that of the carbonaceous material during drying and heating, with the potential of the coating layer cracking or becoming separated from the carbonaceous material.
- the extruded heat source in some way in order to achieve the final product.
- the process further comprises the step of heating the heat source to a temperature of at least 750 0 C, preferably under an inert atmosphere, in order to bring about sintering or pyrolysis.
- the process may further incorporate a cutting step, in which the extruded cylindrical heat source is cut into individual portions.
- the cutting step may take place before, or after the drying step and any other additional processing steps.
- Each heat source preferably has a length of between about 7 mm and about 17 mm, more preferably of between about 11 mm and about 15 mm, most preferably of about 11 mm.
- a heat source having a single substantially central or axial airflow channel is formed.
- the diameter of the air flow channel is preferably between about 1.5 mm and about 3 mm, more preferably between about 2 mm and about 2.5 mm.
- the coating layer has a thickness of between about 10 microns and about 200 microns, more preferably of between about 10 microns and about 100 microns.
- the thickness of the coating layer formed on the inner surface of the air flow channel is controlled at least in part through the control of the flow rate of the coating compound through the feed passageway of the mandrel, in step (b).
- the flow rate may in turn be controlled through the control of at least one of the pressure and the volume of the coating compound.
- the flow rate of the coating compound is controlled such that the coating layer is formed immediately adjacent the end of the mandrel in which the outlet is provided.
- the flow rate of the coating compound directly affects the thickness of the coating layer that is formed.
- negative hydrostatic pressure is built up at the end of the mandrel as a result of the relative motion of the extruded heat source and the coating compound.
- the hydrostatic pressure in the feed passageway may be monitored using one or more pressure sensors and the flow pressure may be adjusted in response to the pressure measurements to ensure that the pressure remains at the desired level.
- the flow of the coating compound through the feed passageway in the mandrel is controlled such that a reservoir of the coating compound is formed in the portion of the air flow channel immediately adjacent to the end of the mandrel.
- the coating layer is formed immediately downstream of the reservoir.
- the flow of the coating compound may be controlled by a pump, which operates independently from the flow system for the carbonaceous material.
- a reservoir of the coating compound, completely filling the portion of the air flow channel immediately adjacent the end of the mandrel, may be produced by pumping an increased volume of the compound into the mandrel during the initial stage of extrusion. Subsequently, the flow volume may be adjusted so that the coating compound in the reservoir is replaced at the same rate as it is removed inside the air flow channel of the heat source.
- the meniscus of the reservoir advantageously remains in substantially the same position relative to the end of the mandrel. Movement of the meniscus backwards into the interior of the mandrel may disrupt the formation of the coating layer. Movement of the meniscus further away from the mandrel would result in longer sections of the air flow channel being filled than necessary.
- the position of its meniscus may be measured using a suitable non-destructive method such as X-ray absorption or beta-ray backscattering. Electromagnetic methods, such as capacitive sensors may also be employed for certain coating compounds. The presence or absence of the reservoir is detected at two or more positions along the flow channel of the coating compound. The flow rate of the compound is controlled accordingly by the pump to ensure that the meniscus remains in the desired position.
- the edge of the mandrel wall may advantageously be bevelled in order to avoid large tensile stresses and breakaway of the coating as it is pulled over the edge of the mandrel.
- the process of the present invention may also be used to produce a cylindrical heat source having a plurality of longitudinal air flow channels, by using a die in the extrusion step that has a plurality of mandrels mounted in the die orifice, each mandrel forming one of the air flow channels.
- a die in the extrusion step that has a plurality of mandrels mounted in the die orifice, each mandrel forming one of the air flow channels.
- the air flow channels may have the same or different diameters to each other.
- the inner surface of one or more of the air flow channels may be coated.
- Each channel may be coated in the manner described above, by feeding a coating compound through a flow passageway in the mandrel that is creating that channel.
- the inner surface of all of the air flow channels is coated.
- the coating compound used to coat each air flow channel may be the same as, or different to, the coating compound used to coat the other air flow channels.
- the process of the present invention may be carried out with extrusion occurring in the horizontal or vertical direction.
- gravity may cause a downward draining of the coating compound after it has been formed on the inner surfaces of the air flow channel.
- a coating compound having a high viscosity and large yield strength is therefore preferred, in order to prevent this effect.
- the viscosity of the coating compound be as low as possible in order to avoid large stresses and abrasion in the flow channels.
- a coating showing thixotropic behaviour is therefore preferred.
- a thixotropic material is a relatively high viscosity material that undergoes a reduction in viscosity when shear force is applied and reverts to the original, higher viscosity when the shear force is removed again.
- Thixotropic properties may be obtained by the addition of a suitable additive to the coating compound. Suitable additives for this purpose are well known in the art. For example, anisotropic constituents such as elongated polymers, or platelet shaped particles, can be used.
- the carbonaceous heat source is preferably combustible and in addition to carbon may comprise one or more additional combustible fuels including, but not limited to, aluminium, magnesium, carbides, nitrides and mixtures thereof. Preferred are combustible fuels with a high heat generating capacity, which provide very low amounts of incomplete combustion byproducts and which provide for sufficient mechanical strength of the combustible heat source.
- the carbonaceous heat sources formed by the process of the present invention are typically porous and their porosity has a substantial impact on their combustion rate. As the combustion proceeds, oxygen may diffuse into the mass of the heat source at a rate sufficient to sustain combustion.
- the heat sources produced by the process of the present invention are cylindrical and preferably of substantially uniform diameter.
- the heat sources may, for example, be a cylinder of substantially circular cross section, or a cylinder of substantially elliptical cross section.
- the cross section of the heat source may be altered by altering the cross section of the orifice in the die, through which the heat source material is extruded.
- organic binders may be incorporated in the heat source.
- Additives may also be included, for example, additives to promote consolidation of the combustible heat source (for example sintering aids), additives to promote combustion of the heat source (for example potassium) and additives to promote decomposition of one or more gases produced by combustion of the heat source (for example catalysts).
- the additives will be added to the carbonaceous material prior to extrusion.
- oxidants may be added after any thermal treatments, to improve combustion and lighting properties of the heat source.
- composition and properties of the coating compound must be adapted depending on the carbonaceous material being used to form the heat source, in order to optimise the wetting of the inner surface of the air flow channel by the coating compound.
- the coating layer of the heat source comprises a layer of solid particulate matter and is substantially air impermeable.
- This type of particulate coating will typically be applied in the form of a suspension, as described above.
- the coating may be formed from one or more suitable materials that are substantially thermally stable and non- combustible at the combustion temperature of the heat source. Suitable materials are known in the art and include, for example, clays, such as kaolin, bentonite, muscovite mica, metal oxides, such as iron oxide, alumina, titania, silica, silica-alumina, zirconia and ceria, zeolites, zirconium phosphate, graphite, glasses, and other ceramic materials or combinations thereof.
