COAXIAL FILTER CIGARETTE

摘要

A coaxial filter cigarette with a rod portion having an inner core of material glowing substantially free of residue, in particular tobacco material, a sheath or wrapper for the inner core, an outer shell of tobacco and/or non-tobacco material coaxially surrounding the inner core or its sheath, respectively, a sheath or wrapper for the outer shell, and with a filter portion having a filter core, an air-impermeable sheath or wrapper for the filter core, a filter shell and a sheath or wrapper for the filter shell comprises a zone of the main heat source which is located in the inner core of the rod portion and a zone in which the major part of the aerosol reaching the mouth of the smoker is produced and which is located in the outer shell of the rod portion; the filter portion greatly reduces the combustion gases originating from the inner core of the rod portion and substantially reduces the smoke particles originating from the inner core, whereas the aerosol produced in the outer shell of the rod portion is influenced only slightly or not at all.
