AI Technical Summary
The existing hollow paper tubes have insufficient stiffness and poor resilience, making them prone to irreversible deformation and wrinkling during lamination with cellulose acetate filter sections or cigarette rolling, which affects the appearance quality of the cigarettes.
Inorganic fibers, such as basalt fibers or glass fibers, are incorporated into the base paper of hollow paper tubes. The surface of the inorganic fibers is roughened by treatment with sodium hydroxide solution to enhance their bonding force with organic fibers. Combined with calcium carbonate, inorganic adhesives and retention aids, the paper tubes are formed through papermaking and drying, resulting in hollow paper tubes with high stiffness and high resilience.
This method ensures that the hollow paper tube does not undergo irreversible deformation or wrinkling during the bonding process with the cellulose acetate filter section or the cigarette rolling process, thus guaranteeing the appearance quality of the cigarette. At the same time, the preparation method is simple and low-cost, making it suitable for industrial production.
