Abstract
Description
[Technical field]
[0001] The present invention relates to a fabric filter including a scented sheet and a smoking article including the same. [Background technology]
[0002] For heated stick products, heating using a dedicated device is essential to express the smoking taste of the medium (including tobacco raw materials such as hornwort and flavorings and aerosol products). In the case of dedicated heated stick devices developed so far to express the smoking taste, the temperature program is designed to allow high temperature heating considering the heat transfer to the inside of the medium. The heating temperature is usually at the level of 200℃~400℃, and unlike traditional cigarettes in which hornwort is burned and inhaled, when the stick of the medium is heated through the device, a large amount of water vapor is also generated. The temperature level generated inside the medium by heating is at the level of 100℃~200℃. The airflow temperature generated inside the medium is also similar, and if there is no cooling material downstream of the medium, the smoker will inhale hot air.
[0003] Previously developed cooling materials for heated sticks were polymeric materials (PLA, CA, PET, etc.) that can absorb heat and change phase in the airflow temperature range and are applied to the entire filter cross section in the form of fabric, etc. PLA was spun into threads and twisted into a fabric shape and used in products, but the cost of the material is very high and the amount that can be produced per hour is very small, making production efficiency low.
[0004] This has spurred active research into the development of cooling materials that could improve the economics and performance of new heating sticks. Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]
[0005] In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, the present invention provides a woven filter that enhances the cooling effect and flavor of a smoking article by applying a scented sheet having cooling and fragrance-releasing effects, while having production efficiency and price competitiveness.
[0006] The present invention provides a smoking article comprising a woven filter according to the present invention.

[Diagram 3] 1 is a schematic diagram showing a smoking article to which a fabric filter according to the present invention is applied, according to still another embodiment of the present invention; DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS
[0025] Hereinafter, the embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. In describing the present invention, if it is determined that a detailed description of related known functions or configurations may unnecessarily obscure the gist of the present invention, the detailed description will be omitted. In addition, the terms used in this specification are terms used to appropriately express preferred embodiments of the present invention, and may vary depending on the intention of a user or operator, or customs in the field to which the present invention belongs. Therefore, the definitions of these terms should be based on the contents of the entire specification. The same reference numerals shown in each drawing indicate the same members.
[0026] Throughout this specification, when an element is said to be "on" another element, this includes not only when the element is in contact with the other element, but also when there is another element between the two elements.
[0027] Throughout the specification, when a part is said to "comprise" a certain element, this means that it can further include other elements, but not to the exclusion of other elements.
[0028] The woven filter and the smoking article including the woven filter of the present invention will be specifically described below with reference to examples and drawings, but the present invention is not limited to such examples and drawings.
[0029] The present invention relates to a woven filter for use in smoking articles, the woven filter comprising scented sheet fibers, the scented sheet fibers comprising fibers cut from a scented sheet.
[0030] According to one embodiment of the present invention, the scented sheet includes a cellulose-based polymer, a plasticizer, and a scented substance, and the scented sheet is a film-like sheet that retains the scented substance within the cellulose-based polymer, thereby improving the persistence of the aroma and / or tobacco taste transferred from the smoking product. Also, the cellulose-based polymer can provide an airflow cooling effect due to its characteristic of undergoing a phase change (crystallization) only at the temperature (high temperature) of the airflow moving from within the smoking article, for example, from within the stick to the smoker. Also, the scented sheet has high tensile strength and is flexible, and can be used as a component of a fibrous filter by itself without being coated on a base paper.
[0031] According to one embodiment of the present invention, the "smoking article" may refer to any product that can be smoked or any product that can provide a smoking experience, whether based on tobacco, tobacco derivatives, expanded tobacco, reconstituted tobacco, or tobacco substitutes. For example, the smoking article may refer to a smokable article that can generate aerosol, such as a cigarette, a cigar, a cigarillo, an electronic cigarette (e.g., a heat-type), and the like. The smoking article may include an aerosol-generating substance or an aerosol-forming substrate. The smoking article may also include a solid substance based on tobacco raw materials, such as tabular tobacco, hornwort, and reconstituted tobacco. Alternatively, the smoking substance may include a volatile compound.
[0032] According to one embodiment of the present invention, the cellulose-based polymer may be a binder material that can hold flavoring substances and provide a polymer matrix for forming a flexible sheet having high tensile strength. Furthermore, for example, it may be used together with a solvent (e.g., water) and alcohol that dissolves and / or disperses the components for forming a film and / or sheet. For example, it may include at least one selected from the group consisting of methyl cellulose, ethyl cellulose, carboxymethyl cellulose, carboxyethyl cellulose, hydroxymethyl cellulose, hydroxyethyl cellulose, hydroxypropyl cellulose, hydroxypropyl methyl cellulose, hydroxyethyl methyl cellulose, and agar, but is not limited thereto. Preferably, it may be methyl cellulose and hydroxypropyl methyl cellulose.
[0033] According to one embodiment of the present invention, the cellulose-based polymer is 20% by weight to 60% by weight; 20% by weight to 50% by weight; or 30% by weight to 40% by weight of the aromatized sheet. If the content of the cellulose-based polymer is less than 20% by weight, it may be difficult to obtain tensile strength and flexibility properties that are applicable as a component of a woven filter, or it may be difficult to produce the sheet itself. If the content of the cellulose-based polymer exceeds 60% by weight, the physical properties of the sheet may change (e.g., it may become brittle or crack), preventing the aroma and flavor from being expressed well in the aromatized substances in the sheet, and it may be difficult to enhance the taste of tobacco and the smoking taste persistence.
[0034] According to one embodiment of the present invention, the flavoring substance can impart flavor and / or aroma characteristics or enhance the flavor and taste, and can be applied without limitation as long as it is applicable to smoking articles, and for example, it can include at least one selected from the group consisting of organic acids such as lactic acid, citric acid, malic acid, etc., licorice, sucrose, fructose syrup, isosweet, cocoa, lavender, cinnamon, cardamom, celery, fenugreek, cascarilla, sandalwood, bergamot, geranium, honey essence, rose oil, vanilla, lemon oil, orange oil, mint oil, cinnamon, caraway, cognac, jasmine, chamomile, menthol, cinnamon, ylang-ylang, salvia, spearmint, ginger, coriander, clove extract (or clove substance), and coffee, but is not limited thereto.
[0035] According to one embodiment of the present invention, the aroma substance is 10% to 50% by weight; 10% to 40% by weight; 10% to 30% by weight; or 10% to 20% by weight of the aroma sheet, and being within these ranges provides sustained aroma and / or tobacco flavor, allows for application in high concentrations, and makes it possible to adjust the intensity of the aroma and / or flavor.
[0036] According to an embodiment of the present invention, the plasticizer may include, but is not limited to, at least one selected from the group consisting of propylene glycol, polyethylene glycol, dipropylene glycol, diethylene glycol, triethylene glycol, tetraethylene glycol, glycerin, and sorbitol, and may preferably be propylene glycol and glycerin.
[0037] According to one embodiment of the present invention, the plasticizer is present in the scented sheet in an amount of 1 wt% to 20 wt%, 1 wt% to 15 wt%, 1 wt% to 10 wt%, or 5 wt% to 10 wt% in order to adjust the strength of the scented sheet. If the plasticizer content is less than 1 wt%, it may be difficult to obtain tensile strength characteristics suitable for use as a component of a woven filter, and if the plasticizer content exceeds 20 wt%, the physical properties of the sheet may become poor (e.g., the tensile strength may be low or it may become too soft) and it may become prone to tearing, making it difficult to use or manufacture the scented sheet fiber for a woven filter.
[0038] According to one embodiment of the present invention, the scented sheet has a thickness of 1 mm or less; 0.1 mm to 1 mm; or 0.5 mm to 0.8 mm, and the scented sheet can be cut to form scented sheet fibers. If the scented sheet is thicker than 1 mm, the flexible properties of the sheet cannot be properly realized, making it difficult to manufacture it as a woven filter, and the increased thickness may result in poor expression of aroma and flavor, or if it is too thin, it may be difficult to obtain a cooling effect.
[0039] According to one embodiment of the present invention, the scented sheet has a tensile strength that can be used as a component of a woven filter for a smoking article, for example, the tensile strength of the scented sheet may be 1.0 kgf / 15 mm or more, 2.0 kgf / 15 mm or more, 5.0 kgf / 15 mm or more, or 1.0 kgf / 15 mm to 10 kgf / 15 mm. When the tensile strength falls within the above range, it is possible to obtain a scented sheet that has a good balance of strength and flexibility properties that can be used as scented sheet fibers for woven filters for smoking articles.
[0040] According to one embodiment of the present invention, the average diameter (i.e., thickness) of the scented sheet fiber may be 1 mm or less; 0.1 mm to 1 mm; or 0.5 mm to 0.8 mm. If the average diameter of the scented sheet fiber exceeds 1 mm, it may be difficult to realize the flexible characteristics and to manufacture it into a woven filter, and the increased thickness may prevent the expression of the aroma and flavor, or if it is too thin, it may be difficult to obtain a cooling effect.
[0041] According to one embodiment of the present invention, the shape, thickness, length, etc. of the woven filter may be changed depending on the smoking article to which it is applied, without departing from the purpose of the present invention. For example, when applied to a cigarette or electronic cigarette stick, the woven filter may have a diameter of 4.5 mm to 8 mm; a circumference of 14 mm to 25 mm; and a length of 5 mm to 20 mm.
[0042] The present invention relates to a smoking article comprising a textile filter according to the present invention.

In addition, the cellulose-based polymer can provide an airflow cooling effect due to its characteristic of undergoing a phase change (crystallization) only at the temperature (high temperature) of the airflow moving from within the smoking article, for example, from within the stick to the smoker. In addition, the scented sheet has high tensile strength and is flexible, and can be used as a component of the fibrous filter itself without being coated on a base paper.

If the content of the cellulose-based polymer is less than 20% by weight, it may be difficult to obtain tensile strength and flexibility properties that are applicable as a component of a woven filter, or it may be difficult to produce the sheet itself. If the content of the cellulose-based polymer exceeds 60% by weight, the physical properties of the sheet may change (e.g., it may become brittle or crack), preventing the aroma and flavor from being expressed well in the aromatized substances in the sheet, and it may be difficult to enhance the taste of tobacco and the smoking taste persistence.
[0048] According to one embodiment of the present invention, the flavoring substance can impart flavor and / or aroma characteristics or enhance the flavor and taste, and can be applied without limitation as long as it is applicable to smoking articles, and for example, it can include at least one selected from the group consisting of organic acids such as lactic acid, citric acid, malic acid, etc., licorice, sucrose, fructose syrup, isosweet, cocoa, lavender, cinnamon, cardamom, celery, fenugreek, cascarilla, sandalwood, bergamot, geranium, honey essence, rose oil, vanilla, lemon oil, orange oil, mint oil, cinnamon, caraway, cognac, jasmine, chamomile, menthol, cinnamon, ylang-ylang, salvia, spearmint, ginger, coriander, clove extract (or clove substance), and coffee, but is not limited thereto.
[0049] According to one embodiment of the present invention, the fragrance substance is present in the fragrance sheet in an amount of 10% to 50% by weight; 10% to 40% by weight; 10% to 30% by weight; or 10% to 20% by weight. When the fragrance substance is present within the above ranges, it provides a lasting fragrance and / or tobacco flavor, allows for application in high concentrations, and makes it possible to adjust the intensity of the fragrance and / or flavor.
[0050] According to an embodiment of the present invention, the plasticizer may include, but is not limited to, at least one selected from the group consisting of propylene glycol, polyethylene glycol, dipropylene glycol, diethylene glycol, triethylene glycol, tetraethylene glycol, glycerin, and sorbitol, and may preferably be propylene glycol and glycerin.
