A method of manufacturing a wrapper for an aerosol generating article includes applying an adhesive to one surface of a metal layer and attaching a first paper layer thereto, applying the adhesive to the other surface of the metal layer and attaching thereto a second paper layer different from the first paper layer, and drying the adhesive applied between the metal layer and the first paper layer and the adhesive applied between the metal layer and the second paper layer.

Wrapper for aerosol generating article and method of manufacturing same

A method of manufacturing a smoking article including a tube filter includes preparing a smoking material portion, a first tube filter flavored by a first flavoring liquid, and a mouthpiece flavored by a second flavoring liquid; and combining and packaging the smoking material portion, the first tube filter, and the mouthpiece with a wrapper, wherein the preparing comprises applying the first flavoring liquid inside the first tube filter through a hollow of the first tube filter.

Smoking article comprising a tube filter and a method of manufacturing the same

An aerosol-generating article according to one embodiment includes a medium portion; a first hollow tube disposed to face a downstream end of the medium portion and including a first hollow; a cooling portion disposed next to a downstream side of the first hollow tube, including a second hollow tube including a second hollow having a diameter equal to or greater than a diameter of the first hollow and a cooling element; a filter portion disposed to face the downstream end of the cooling portion; and a wrapper wrapping at least a portion of the medium portion, the first hollow tube, the cooling portion, and the filter portion.

Aerosol generation article

Disclosed is a cigarette including a tobacco rod, a supporting segment positioned at a downstream end of the tobacco rod, a cooling segment positioned at a downstream end of the supporting segment, and a mouthpiece positioned at a downstream end of the cooling segment. The cigarette according to the present embodiment may include a plurality of air channels formed along a longitudinal direction of the cigarette and the cooling segment having porosity of 50% or less.

Cigarette

Provided herein are a smoking article filter and a smoking article including the same. The filter according to some embodiments of the present disclosure includes a filter plug including a filter material and a liquid material added to the filter plug. Here, a molecular weight of a hydrophilic group of the filter material may be larger than or equal to a molecular weight of a hydrophobic group thereof, and in this case, changes in physical properties of the filter due to adding the liquid material may be minimized.

Smoking article filter and smoking article including the same

According to embodiments of the present invention, there is provided a tube filter production device including a tube filter exterior forming case into which one or more filter tows are introduced and from which a tubular rod formed from the one or more filter tows is discharged, a tube filter forming bar extending in an inner region of the tube filter exterior forming case in order to form a hollow of the tubular rod, and a steam chamber having at least one steam nozzle in communication with the inner region of the tube filter exterior forming case and configured to supply steam to the one or more filter tows through the steam nozzle, wherein the tube filter forming bar has a duct extending in a longitudinal direction of the tube filter forming bar and a flavoring nozzle formed in a downstream end region of the tube filter forming bar to deliver a flavoring liquid or a moisturizing liquid supplied through the duct to the hollow of the tubular rod.

Tube filter production device and tube filter production method

A cigarette includes a tobacco rod, a front end plug positioned at a front end of the tobacco rod, a filter rod positioned at a rear end of the tobacco rod, and a wrapper surrounding the tobacco rod, the front end plug, and the filter rod and including at least one perforation formed in an area of the wrapper to allow air to flow to the inside of the wrapper.

Cigarette and aerosol generation device for cigarette

Provided is an aerosol-generating article including a wrapper which is discolored as the aerosol-generating material is heated, the aerosol-generating article including: a tobacco rod; a front-end plug arranged on a side of the tobacco rod; a filter rod arranged on the other side of the tobacco rod; and the wrapper surrounding the tobacco rod, the front-end plug, and the filter rod, wherein the wrapper includes a thermochromic material which is heated and discolored by an aerosol-generating device when the aerosol-generating article is inserted into the aerosol-generating device.

Aerosol-generating article and aerosol-generating systems

A cigarette according to an embodiment may include a cigarette rod including an aerosol-generating material; a filter rod located at one end of the cigarette rod and including a first segment and a second segment; a front end plug located at the other end of the cigarette rod; and an outer wrapper wrapping the cigarette rod, the filter rod and the front end plug, wherein the outer wrapper has a basis weight of 57 g/mto 63 g/mand a thickness of 64 μm to 70 μm to increase the strength of the cigarette.

Cigarette with outer wrapper

Provided is an aerosol generating article including a filter segment in which a channel is formed, the aerosol generating article including: a front-end filter segment arranged at an upstream end that is to be inserted into an aerosol generating device; a rear-end filter segment arranged at a downstream end that is to contact a mouth of a user; and a tobacco rod arranged between the front-end filter segment and the rear-end filter segment, wherein at least one filter segment of the front-end filter segment and the rear-end filter segment includes: at least one channel extending from the upstream end toward the downstream end; and a filter structure filtering out some components of aerosol, and wherein the at least one filter segment has a suction resistance corresponding to a ratio between a cross-sectional area of the at least one channel and a cross-sectional area of the filter structure.

Aerosol-generating article

This invention relates to a lyocell material for a tobacco filter and a method of manufacturing the same, and more particularly to a lyocell fiber having a modified cross-section for a tobacco filter, wherein the cross-sectional shape of a monofilament contained in a lyocell fiber is controlled to increase the external surface area of the fiber, after which then crimps are formed, thereby exhibiting properties equal or superior to those of conventional lyocell materials, even when used in a small amount.

Modified cross-section lyocell material for tobacco filter, and preparation method therefor

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.

Lyocell material for cigarette filter and method for preparing same

This invention relates to a method of manufacturing a lyocell material for a cigarette filter, including (S1) spinning a lyocell spinning dope composed of 8 to 13 wt % of a cellulose pulp and 87 to 92 wt % of an N-methylmorpholine-N-oxide (NMMO) aqueous solution; (S2) coagulating the lyocell spinning dope spun in (S1), thus obtaining a lyocell multifilament; (S3) water-washing the lyocell multifilament obtained in (S2); (S4) oiling the lyocell multifilament water-washed in (S3); and (S5) applying steam and pressure to the lyocell multifilament obtained in (S4), thus obtaining a crimped tow having 30 to 40 crimps per inch.
