Abstract (en)

[origin: EP1726224A1] The method consists of the following stages: a) Immersion in water b) Pressing between rollers, controlling their attractive stress so as to obtain a moisture content 20% or more c) Depositing of adhesive in a quantity of 60 mg/m or less d) Drying In this way, the water contained in the sheets of reconstituted tobacco limits the amount of water that it may absorb during gumming, so that the linear weight of adhesive required for a satisfactory performance of the end product is reduced.
