Abstract (en)

[origin: EP0198268A2] A nicotine-dispensing device comprising a housing and a gas-permeable nicotine-dispensing unit. The housing is resistant to nicotine absorption and adsorption and has a mouthpiece end with an opening and a cigarette-receiving end with an opening. The housing defines a passageway between the openings. The gas-permeable nicotine-dispensing unit comprises nicotine and a fibrous or porous adsorptive for nicotine and resistant to nicotine absorption. This nicotine-dispensing unit is interposed in the passageway of the housing so that gases passing through the passageway become enriched in vaporous nicotine. The device is preferably formed as a single-pieced or two-pieced cigarette holder and may contain the nicotine-dispensing unit as a cartridge.
