A cigarette includes a tobacco rod and a filter rod connected to a downstream end portion of the tobacco rod. A portion of the filter rod includes a cooling portion, and the cooling portion includes sucrose as a cooling material.

The present disclosure relates to smoking substitute consumables, including an aerosol-forming article comprising an aerosol-forming substrate and a terminal filter element at a downstream axial end of the article/consumable. The terminal filter element may comprise a hollow bore extending from an upstream axial end of the terminal filter element to a downstream axial end of the terminal filter element. The hollow bore may be off-set from the axial centre of the terminal filter element.

A starch-based cooling material of the invention is prepared by 8.0 to 9.0 parts of a starch, 0.5 to 1.0 part of a phase change material, and 0.5 to 1.0 a part of polyol. The starch-based cooling material of the invention is prepared by coordination of the starch, the phase change material and the polyol, wherein the phase change material has effects of absorbing and storing heat, a temperature of smoke can be significantly reduced, an effect of fast and strong cooling is realized, and a cooling effect can reach 70° C. to 120° C. All the raw materials for preparing are biodegradable materials, and a prepared heat-not-burn cigarette filter stick can be degraded after use, which is environmental friendly, and can be widely used in the field of preparing heat-not-burning cigarette products.

A gel composition and tobacco industry products including the same The present invention relates to a gel composition comprising a gel formed from a liquid gel precursor and a gas. The present invention also relates to tobacco industry products comprising a gel composition, a method of preparing a gel composition comprising a gas, use of a gel composition comprising trapped gas, and a kit for assembling a tobacco industry product comprising a gel composition.

A cooling filter rod, an application, and a cigarette are provided. The cooling filter rod is mainly formed by cooling particles. The cooling particle includes a particle body and a shell coated on the particle body. The shell or the particle body contains a phase change material. The phase change material is coated on the surface of the particle material to form cooling particles, and the cooling particles are integrally formed into a cooling filter rod, which can be directly used for cigarette production after being compounded with conventional filter rods. The cooling effect can be controlled according to the amount of the phase change material and the cooling filter rod. Such a filter rod can realize industrial production and has low cost and good cooling effect.

A smoking article tube includes an elongated tube having a mouthpiece segment at a first end and an empty smokable material cavity defined by a second end of the elongated tube opposing the first end. A hydrophobic tube region includes hydrophobic groups covalently bonded to the elongated tube.

Disclosed are a lyocell material for a cigarette filter and a method of preparing the same, wherein a crimped tow is manufactured using a lyocell multifilament including low-strength lyocell monofilaments, and thus the ultimately prepared lyocell material for a cigarette filter can exhibit low strength, thereby increasing processing efficiency during the manufacture of the cigarette filter.

The present invention concerns a process for the manufacture of marked cellulose acetate fibres, an apparatus for marking cellulose acetate fibres, a process for the detection of at least one information item on marked cellulose acetate fibres or on products comprising marked cellulose acetate fibres, a process for the manufacture of a tow bale comprising marked cellulose acetate fibres, a tow bale, a tow, a filter and a cigarette comprising marked cellulose acetate fibres.

A method for manufacturing a flavor capsule of tobacco according to an embodiment of the present disclosure may comprise: a membrane manufacturing step for manufacturing a membrane of a flavor capsule by a membrane manufacturing part that manufactures a membrane; a capsule manufacturing step for manufacturing the flavor capsule using an apparatus for manufacturing a capsule with the membrane manufactured during the membrane manufacturing step and a flavored liquid to be held in the membrane; and a hardening step for hardening the flavor capsule.

The invention discloses a granular cigarette, comprising a tobacco tube encapsulated with tobacco particles; one end of the tube is provided with a filtering component and the other end a sealing component; the tobacco particles are arranged between the filtering and the sealing components. The filtering component can adopt traditional filtering cotton or filtering silica gel strip; the sealing component can adopt aluminum foil, tobacco sheet, self-closing silica gel plug, and glue film. A capsule packaging can be further adopted for the tobacco particles to solve the problem that the particles easily fall out during production. The invention replaces the low-temperature non-burning cigarette with a thin-film technology by encapsulating a granular cigarette, which has the advantages of simple production process, sufficient heating, uniform smoke, and the smoke can shuttle between particles; the problem of easy falling out of particles can be solved by the filtering and the sealing components.
