The present disclosure relates to cellulose nanomaterials made or derived from tobacco and methods for the production thereof. The tobacco-derived cellulose nanomaterials can be employed in various industrial applications such as film forming applications and solution thickening technologies. In particular, the disclosure is directed to methods for preparing tobacco-derived cellulose nanomaterials using less fibrillation cycles than in the production of wood pulp. The invention includes a method for preparing tobacco derived nanocellulose material comprising receiving a tobacco pulp in a dilute form such that the tobacco pulp is a tobacco pulp suspension with a consistency of less than about 5%; and mechanically fibrillating the tobacco pulp suspension to generate a tobacco derived nanocellulose material having at least one average particle size dimension in the range of about 1 nm to about 100 nm.

A method and system for producing reconstituted vegetable strips. The method may include milling of vegetable materials to particle sizes between 10 to 200 MESH; mixture of cellulose fibers in an intensive mixer to 1 to 10 min; mixture of vegetable material to a binding compound added to the nanocellulose fibers; adding humectant agent and water to the mixture; submitting the mixture to a shearing step through a pre-lamination system including two linear and parallel lamination rollers; submitting a strip to a mixture in an intensive mixer for obtainment of an homogeneous mass; lamination of the mixture between two linear and parallel lamination rollers, obtaining a continuous strip with a specific thickness; drying the vegetable strip through its passage through a thermal chamber in a specific temperature, between 90 C. and 900 C.; cutting and final processing of the dry strip to obtain the final product.

A flavour delivery system for tobacco includes a flavour material entrained in a zeolite material and forming a core and a wax material encapsulating the core.

A broad-spectrum antiviral and anti-inflammatory cigarette additive, a preparation method and an application thereof are provided. The cigarette additive includes: soy protein powder, chlorophyll, propylene glycol, vegetable glycerin, eucommia ulmoides, structured water, multivitamin iron oral solution, chitosan, zinc oxide nanoparticles, titanium dioxide nanoparticles, bovine bone collagen peptide powder, fish skin collagen peptide powder, shark chondroitin, mucor powder, and yeast powder. The cigarette additive is added into cut tobacco of a cigarette, a cigarette filter, or a fog-absorbing rod of an electronic cigarette, thereby realizing filer and conversion of various harmful compounds and gases. In addition, various inflammations such as stomatitis, pharyngolaryngitis, and pneumonia, and cancers can be prevented and treated by smoking the cigarette with the additive. Moreover, bacteria and viruses in air can be killed by second-hand smoke indoors, reducing an emission of TVOC, achieving mildew-proof effect, and prolonging cigarette preservation time.

Compositions configured to interact with organic molecules, and related articles and methods, are generally described.
