Effect of Cigarette Design and Physical Variance on the Combustibility, Pressure Drop and Smoke Ingredient

Effect of circumference, net weight, and moisture content on the physicochemical propesties of cigarette were investigated. At the same net weight of cigarette, the pressure drop(E.P.D) of cigarette was increased as the circumference was decreased. Loseend and firmness were improved by reduction of circumference. In this condition, tar, nicotine, and carbon monoxide deliveries were decreased, and the puff count was significantly increased. When the moisture content of the cigarette were decreased, firmness and loseend were increased. Also in this condition nicotine and carbon monoxide tend to be increased. Key words : cigarette design, circumference, net weight.
