PURPOSE:To obtain a combustion wick which can maintain stable combustion for a long time, by inhibiting tar material to be produced and accumulated on the wick, by insulating a fuel evaporating part from a flame spreading wick, and by providing the evaporating part with a paint which is blended by mixing inorganic pigment, silica, and a surface active agent. CONSTITUTION:A combustion wick is constituted in such a manner that a fuel evaporating part 1 is made separated from a flame spreading wick 4, and the fuel evaporating part 1 is mainly made of a material in the state of a paper which is made by adding a small quantity of organic binder to ceramic fiber made of silica alumina ceramic, and by making the mixture into a paper by a paper-making machine, while a part, at least, of fuel evaporating part 1 is coated with a paint 7 made of inorganic pigment, silica, and a surface active agent. With such an arrangement, generation and accumulation of tar material in the fuel evaporating part 1 of a combustion wick is inhibited, so that stable combustion can be maintained on the wick for a long time. |
