Removal of Phenolic Compounds from Mainstream Cigarette Smoke by Plasticizer

Article Preview

Abstract:

A series of compounds were applied as plasticizer in the cellulose acetate filter of cigarette. The data showed that the tested filters with proper plasticizers could effectively remove phenolic compounds from mainstream cigarette smoke. In the test models, Triethyl citrate (TEC) exhibited significant absorption capacity to phenolic compounds in cigarette smoke, and the removal efficiency exceeded 49% in contrast to triacetin. Similar result was obtained in different type of cigarette with TEC tips. The removal efficiency of phenolic compounds was significantly affected by the loading of TEC when the loading of TEC was less than 9 wt%. However, when the loading of TEC was between 9-15 wt%, the removal efficiency showed only slight difference.
