A coating composition for low ignition propensity cigarette paper, according to one embodiment of the present invention, comprises 10-30 wt % of gum arabic, 25-35 wt % of maltose, 15-30 wt % of ethanol and 10-40 wt % of water.

A pre-rolled smoking paper and a packaging that is configured to inhibit damage to the pre-rolled smoking paper prior to use. The pre-rolled smoking paper includes a body having a first portion and a second portion. The first portion is hollow and has an opening configured to receive a smoking product therein. The second portion is integrally formed with the first portion and is a filter. The pre-rolled smoking paper is provided in a plurality of sizes and shapes. Flavored oils or THC oils can be used to infuse the pre-rolled smoking paper. The packaging is designed to accommodate either a single pre-rolled smoking paper or a plurality of pre-rolled smoking papers. The packaging includes at least one storage compartment mateably sized and shaped with the pre-rolled smoking paper. The packaging further includes separate access to each storage compartment thereof.

A composition for a smoking article adhesive may include, in one embodiment, the combination of pine rosin, acai gum, honey, maple syrup, an oil, and water. This composition may be applied to a smoking wrap in order to form a cigar or other smoking article containing an organic, palatable, and convenient wrap adhesive. Advantageously, such a system does not require licking the adhesive for efficacy.

An electrically operated aerosol-generating system is provided, including an aerosol-generating device including an electrically powered heating element; and a heated aerosol-generating article including an aerosol-forming substrate radially encircled by a sheet of thermally-conductive material, which is a thermally conducting flame barrier configured to spread heat and to mitigate against a risk of igniting the substrate by application of a flame to the article, and a plurality of elements, assembled together with the substrate within a wrapper to form a rod having a mouth end and a distal end upstream from the mouth end, the substrate being disposed at the distal end of the rod, the elements including a spacer element disposed within the rod downstream of the substrate and a mouthpiece element extending upstream from the mouth end of the rod, the device being configured to receive the article and the heating element is configured to heat the substrate of the article.

Wrapper for cigarette manufacture includes transversely extending band regions applied by a printing technique, such as gravure printing. The band regions comprise starch, an anti-wrinkling agent such as 1,2 propylene glycol or glycerin, and optionally calcium carbonate. Any suitable printing technique can be used to apply the aqueous solution to the banded regions. The pattern of banded regions may be bands, stripes, two-dimensional arrays, undulated regions, and the like along and/or around the tobacco rod. The pattern can be applied in one or more layers. The pattern may be configured so that when a smoking article is placed on a substrate, at least two longitudinal locations along the length of the tobacco rod have film-forming compound located only on sides of the smoking article not in contact with the substrate.

The present disclosure relates to compositions that are useful in the delivery of various materials. In particular, the compositions comprise a suspension wherein an internal phase material is surrounded by an external phase material. The internal phase specifically can be a hydrophilic material, and the external phase specifically can be a hydrophobic material. The materials are combined so that the internal phase is substantially encapsulated by the external phase such that release can be controlled in relation to osmotic pressure differentials. The suspension can be combined with a carrier, and various systems and products can be formed with the suspension and optional carrier, such as oral strips, spray delivery systems, smokeless tobacco products, aerosol delivery devices, cigarettes, and packaging.

Cigarettes are provided which contain a filtering system and flavorants encapsulated with polyvinyl acetate, wherein deactivation of a sorbent by the flavorant is reduced through the encapsulation of the flavorant within the polyvinyl acetate. A preferred flavorant is menthol. The encapsulated flavorants are prepared by mixing at least one flavorant with polyvinyl acetate and a solvent, such as ethanol, and forming the encapsulated flavorants. Methods of making cigarettes and smoking the articles are also provided.

Described are paper wrappers and smoking articles that can include the paper wrappers. The paper wrapper can include a weak organic acid or salt thereof. The addition of the weak organic acid or salt thereof to the paper wrapper can enhance the sensory characteristics of a smoking article that includes the paper wrapper. For instance, the addition of the weak organic acid can enhance the taste and/or smell of a smoking article that includes the paper wrapper.

Wrapping materials are disclosed that are particularly well suited for producing roll-your-own smoking articles. In one aspect, the wrapping materials can be made from extracted Cannabis materials optionally combined with web building fibers. The extracted Cannabis materials are comminuted to a median particle size of generally less than about 120 microns, such as less than about 80 microns. At least one gum is incorporated into the wrapping material for producing a wrapping material with enhanced strength, very smooth surfaces, and excellent self-adhering properties.
