Abstract (en)

[origin: GB2469838A] Treated tobacco (1) for a smoking article, carries diluent (3) and barrier material (4). The barrier material (4) inhibits migration of the diluent (3) during storage of the smoking article but allows release of the diluent (3) during smoking of the smoking article. The diluent may be a polyol such as sorbitol, glycerol, or glycol such as propylene glycol or triethylene glycol or a non-polyol such as monohydric alcohols, high boiling point hydrocarbons, acids such as lactic acid and esters such as diacetin, triacetin, triethyl citrate or isopropyl myristate. The barrier material may be a polysaccharide such as alginate, dextrin, maltodextrin, cyclodextrin or pectin, a cellulosic material such as methyl cellulose, ethyl cellulose, hydroxyethyl cellulose, hydroxylpropyl cellulose, carboxymethyl cellulose or cellulose ether, a gum or gel such as agar, agarose, carrageenans, furoidan or furcellaran.
