COMBUSTIBLE HEAT SOURCE COMPOSITION FOR SMOKING ARTICLE AND SMOKING ARTICLE COMPRISING SAME - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18034928 titled 'COMBUSTIBLE HEAT SOURCE COMPOSITION FOR SMOKING ARTICLE AND SMOKING ARTICLE COMPRISING SAME

The present disclosure pertains to a combustible heat source composition, specifically one comprising a carbon powder, an organic binder, and an ignition accelerator containing potassium nitrate and a reducing sugar in a weight ratio of 5 to 3:2. A smoking article utilizing this composition exhibits excellent ignitability and combustibility.

  • Carbon powder, organic binder, and ignition accelerator (potassium nitrate and reducing sugar) are key components of the combustible heat source composition.
  • The weight ratio of potassium nitrate to reducing sugar is optimized at 5 to 3:2 for enhanced performance.
  • Smoking articles utilizing this composition demonstrate superior ignitability and combustibility.

Potential Applications:

  • This technology can be applied in the manufacturing of smoking articles such as cigarettes and cigars.
  • It can also be used in other combustible heat source applications where quick ignition and efficient combustion are desired.

Problems Solved:

  • Addresses the need for a combustible heat source composition with improved ignitability and combustibility.
  • Provides a solution for enhancing the performance of smoking articles.

Benefits:

  • Improved ignitability and combustibility in smoking articles.
  • Enhanced user experience with quicker and more efficient ignition.
  • Potential for increased market demand for smoking products utilizing this technology.

Commercial Applications:

  • The technology can be utilized by tobacco companies for the production of high-quality smoking articles.
  • It may also find applications in the development of other combustible heat source products in various industries.

Questions about Combustible Heat Source Composition: 1. How does the weight ratio of potassium nitrate to reducing sugar impact the performance of the composition?

  - The weight ratio of 5 to 3:2 is optimized to ensure excellent ignitability and combustibility in smoking articles.

2. What are the potential market implications of implementing this technology in smoking products?

  - The technology can lead to increased consumer satisfaction and demand for smoking articles with improved performance.


Original Abstract Submitted

The present disclosure relates to a combustible heat source composition, and more particularly, to a combustible heat source composition comprising a carbon powder, an organic binder, and an ignition accelerator, wherein the ignition accelerator comprises potassium nitrate and a reducing sugar, and the potassium nitrate and the reducing sugar are contained at a weight ratio of 5 to 3:2. A smoking article to which a combustible heat source composed of the composition is applied is characterized by having excellent ignitability and combustibility.
