Coating composition for low ignition propensity cigarette paper, tobacco using same, and method for manufacturing low ignition propensity cigarette paper

Abstract

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.

Description

TECHNICAL FIELD[0001]A coating composition for a low ignition propensity cigarette paper, a cigarette using the same, and a method for manufacturing a low ignition propensity cigarette paper are provided.BACKGROUND ART[0002]In general, in order to manufacture a tobacco, various kinds of leaf tobaccos are processed by blending them to the desired aroma and taste. The processed tobacco leaves are then carved out to produce cut tobacco leaves, which are surrounded by a cigarette paper to produce a filter-less cigarette. A filter is then attached to the filter-less cigarette as needed.[0003]The cigarette paper may be made of flax, wood pulp, and the like, which is required to maintain the combustibility and the taste of the tobacco when the cigarette paper is burned. The tobacco filter may include an activated carbon, a flavoring material, and the like, and may be composed of a mono-filter or a multi-filter, and the cigarette filter is surrounded by a cigarette filter wrapping paper.

Benefits of technology

[0028]A coating composition for a low ignition propensity cigarette paper according to an embodiment of the present invention, a cigarette using the same, and a method for manufacturing a low ignition propensity cigarette paper may extend the service life and the expiration date of the coating composition in the low ignition propensity cigarette paper, may extend the viscosity retention period of time of the coating composition in the low ignition propensity cigarette paper at the room temperature and the low temperature conditions, may improve the dynamic viscosity retention rate of the coating composition in the low ignition propensity cigarette paper, may increase the amount of coating the coating composition on the low ignition propensity cigarette paper during the coating operation on the cigarette paper, and to maintain the coating amount constantly, may improve the productivity and the workability of the tobacco, may allow the room temperature drying of the coating composition in the low ignition propensity cigarette paper by improving the drying ability, and may reduce the manufacturing cost of the low ignition propensity cigarette paper, and to shorten the manufacturing time.

Problems solved by technology

However, it may be less than 2 months to maintain the properties of the coating composition at 20° C. or more due to the inherent aging characteristics of the starch, and the service life may further be shortened because the aging occurs drastically when the coating composition is exposed to the low temperature.

In addition, such coating composition may reduce the low ignition performance at the high temperature drying, and it may be difficult to dry the coating composition coated on the cigarette paper at the room temperature drying.

In addition, such coating composition may have a large change in viscosity in a dynamic state such as rotation, such that a coating amount may decrease during coating, and the workability may decrease.
