REDUCTION OF CARBON MONOXIDE IN SMOKING ARTICLES USING TRANSITION METAL OXIDE CLUSTERS

摘要

Smoking article components, cigarettes, methods for making cigarettes and methods for smoking cigarettes are provided that use transition metal oxide clusters capable of catalyzing and/or oxidizing the conversion of carbon monoxide to carbon dioxide and/or adsorbing carbon monoxide. Cut filler compositions, cigarette paper and cigarette filter material can comprise transition metal oxide clusters.
