All cigarettes sold in New York State as of June 28, 2004 have had to meet cigarette ignition propensity test criteria. Most of the cigarettes meet the regulation by coating bands of a film former on the paper to reduce the paper permeability in selected regions. The physical properties and composition of these bands may influence smoke deliveries and particularly Hoffman Analytes (HA). The performance characteristics of the low ignition propensity (LIP) cigarettes have been discussed in a companion paper. One of the technologies uses sodium alginate to form such bands on otherwise conventional cigarette paper. Cigarettes using these designs pass NY regulations for cigarette ignition propensity. What happens to cigarette smoke deliveries and Hoffmann Analytes (HA) when these papers are used to improve LIP performance? This study will explore the influence of banded cigarette paper using sodium alginate bands on selected HA deliveries. A limited study showed that certain HA were reduced in test cigarette with alginate paper compared to the control. This presentation will discuss the findings.
