Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a cigarette and a method for treating a cigarette material.
  • a noble metal catalyst or a transition metal oxide catalyst is added to shredded tobacco, a cigarette paper or a filter to convert carbon monoxide into carbon dioxide.
  • Patent Literature 1 discloses that a catalyst made of Fe 2 O 3 nano-particles is added to a tobacco cut filler. However, a complicated process is required to prepare the finely divided metal oxide nano-particles.
  • Patent Literature 2 discloses that high-surface area carrier particles carrying nano-scale metal particles or metal oxide particles are added to a tobacco cut filler. However, in order to make high-surface area carrier particles that carry nano-scale metal particles or metal oxide particles, more complicated processes, for example, a process of deriving the high-surface area carrier particles from a colloidal solution, are required.
  • Patent Literature 3 discloses that a metal oxyhydroxide is added to a cigarette paper, tobacco cut filler, filter or the like. Patent Literature 3 shows in Table 1 that the CO reduction rate when the metal oxyhydroxide is added is 29%. This is lower than the CO reduction rate of 33% obtained when a metal oxide and calcium carbonate are added from the start as shown in Table 1.
  • US 3,612,063 discloses a cigarette comprising a shredded tobacco rod and a cigarette paper that wraps the outer peripheral surface of the shredded tobacco rod, wherein the shredded tobacco maintains a transitional metal salt of an organic acid, wherein the organic acid is oxalic acid or lactic acid, wherein the transition metal is at least one metal selected from the group consisting of Ti and Cu and wherein the transition metal salt of the organic acid is contained in an amount of up to 2% by weight in the shredded tobacco.
  • GB 1 070 437 discloses a cigarette comprising a shredded tobacco rod and a cigarette paper that wraps the outer peripheral surface of the shredded tobacco rod, wherein the shredded tobacco contains a transition metal salt of an organic acid, wherein the transition metal is Zr.
  • WO 2005/039326 describes the use of oxyhydroxide compounds in cigarette paper for reducing carbon monoxide in the mainstream smoke of a cigarette.
  • WO 2007/129222 describes a catalyst precursor, which can be incorporated into the cigarette paper making process or can be combined with cigarette paper after formation of the paper. During the smoking of the cigarette comprising said catalyst particles, the amount of carbon monoxide in the mainstream smoke of the cigarette can be reduced.
  • a cigarette comprising a shredded tobacco rod and a cigarette paper that wraps the outer peripheral surface of the shredded tobacco rod, wherein the shredded tobacco and/or the cigarette paper contains a transition metal salt of an organic acid selected from the group consisting of iron oxalate, iron fumarate, iron citrate and iron lactate.
  • a method for treating a cigarette material comprising treating shredded tobacco and/or cigarette paper with a transition metal salt of an organic acid selected from the group consisting of iron oxalate, iron fumarate, iron citrate and iron lactate.
  • carbon monoxide in cigarette mainstream smoke can be reduced significantly.
  • a cigarette according to the present invention comprises a shredded tobacco rod and a cigarette paper that wraps the outer peripheral surface of the rod.
  • the shredded tobacco is cut or shredded tobacco material and may contain adequate additives.
  • tobacco material tobacco leaves or stem of Burley tobaccos, flue-cured tobaccos or orient tobaccos, fermented tobacco, dark cured tobaccos or reconstituted tobacco materials or their combinations may be used.
  • the additives may include natural or synthetic flavors; polyhydric alcohols such as glycerol and propylene glycol; sugar alcohols such as erythritol, xylitol and sorbitol; and hyaluronic acid.
  • the cigarette paper that wraps the shredded tobacco rod is itself a cigarette paper used in ordinary cigarettes.
  • agricultural byproduct fibers such as bagasse, non-wood fibers such as bamboos and the like besides flax and wood may be used.
  • the cigarette paper may contain any one or more of aluminum hydroxide, aluminum sulfate, aluminum oxide, magnesium oxide, talc and titanium dioxide, and sodium, potassium, calcium or magnesium salts of carbonic acid, formic acid, acetic acid, malic acid, citric acid, tartaric acid, lactic acid or nitric acid as a white incineration agent and a burn adjusting agent.
  • a transition metal salt of an organic acid is contained in the shredded tobacco and/or cigarette paper.
  • the transition metal salt is selected from the group consisting of iron oxalate, iron fumerate, iron citrate and iron lactate.
  • the organic acid transition metal salt added to the shredded tobacco and/or the cigarette paper is decomposed when tobacco is burned and converted into a transition metal oxide which exerts a catalytic action, leading to reduction in carbon monoxide in mainstream smoke.
  • a catalyst is automatically produced by the combustion heat of a tobacco.
  • the organic acid transition metal salt functions as a precursor of the carbon monoxide reduction catalyst and produces the catalyst by burning of the cigarette.
  • the above organic acid transition metal salt is preferably contained in an amount of 1 to 50% by weight based on shredded tobacco.
  • the amount is less than 1% by weight, the carbon monoxide reduction capability tends not to be exerted sufficiently.
  • An amount exceeding 50% by weight makes it difficult to treat shredded tobacco and is therefore undesirable.
  • the organic acid transition metal salt is contained in the cigarette paper
  • the organic acid transition metal salt is preferably contained in an amount of 0.1 to 50 g/m 2 in the cigarette paper.
  • the amount is less than 0.1 g/m 2 , the carbon monoxide reduction capability tends not to be exerted sufficiently.
  • An amount exceeding 50 g/m 2 makes it difficult to treat cigarette paper.
  • the organic acid transition metal salt When the organic acid transition metal salt is contained in the cigarette paper, it preferably has a particle diameter of 0.05 to 5 ⁇ m from the viewpoint of the smoothness of the cigarette paper and retainability in the cigarette paper.
  • the present invention relates to a method for treating a cigarette material, comprising treating shredded tobacco and/or cigarette paper with the above organic acid transition metal salt.
  • the method for treating a cigarette material according to the present invention may be carried out, for example, by spreading a solution in which the above organic acid transition metal salt is dispersed in an organic solvent (which does not dissolve the organic acid transition metal salt) onto the shredded tobacco and/or the cigarette paper.
  • an organic solvent any organic solvent may be used, and alcohols such as ethanol may be mentioned.
  • An aqueous solvent dissolves the above organic acid transition metal salt, making it difficult to spread the salt in an amount exceeding the amount to be absorbed in the cigarette paper.
  • the emulsifier may be a known one which is used as a food additive, for example, lecithin.
  • the emulsifier may be used in an amount of 1 to 50% of the weight of the organic acid transition metal salt. When the amount is less than 1%, only insufficient dispersing effect is developed, whereas when the amount exceeds 50%, this is a hindrance to the decomposition of the organic acid transition metal salt.
  • the organic acid transition metal salt may be kneaded into the shredded tobacco or may be coated to the cigarette paper. Moreover, the organic acid transition metal salt may be furnished in the papermaking of cigarette paper.
  • the method for treating a cigarette material of the present invention is such a very simple method that a cigarette material (shredded tobacco and/or cigarette paper) is treated with the organic acid transition metal salt.
  • a simple method can reduce more carbon monoxide in mainstream smoke than an iron oxide nano-powder which is conventionally regarded as an excellent material.
  • iron citrate manufactured by Nacalai Tesque, Inc. and other iron salts of organic acids manufactured by Wako Pure Chemical Industries, Ltd. were used.

  • TI is a temperature gauge used to measure the temperature of the filled layer.
  • the temperature measured by the temperature gauge TIC was used as a control monitor temperature when heating the reaction tube 9 by the furnace 8.
  • the gas flowed out of the reaction tube 9 was made to flow through a cooling trap 10 and then, the carbon monoxide was quantitatively measured by an infrared gas analyzer 11 manufactured by Horiba Ltd. (VIA-510, according to the nondispersive infrared absorption method).
