D90 was measured with a master sizer (manufactured by malvern). Carboxymethyl cellulose (Nippon Paper Industries, Ltd., Sunrose FF30MC) as a binder was dry-blended with leaf tobacco particles using a mixer.

The time was filled in a wrapper 22 having a length of 12 mm and a diameter of 7 mm in an amount of 70% by volume to prepare a tobacco segment 20A. The system was subjected to a smoking test with a smoking machine (14 puffs, CIR conditions, constant heating at 350 ° C.). After the smoking test, ticks were gently removed from the tobacco segment 20A. Then, the wrapper 22 was newly filled with 70% by volume and subjected to the second smoking test. In this way, a total of 20 smoking tests were performed, and the total volume of spills remaining in the wrapper 22 was measured.
