Abstract

Provided is a tobacco sheet for a non-combustion heating-type fragrance inhaler including a tobacco material, wherein a cross-section of the tobacco sheet in the thickness direction has a wavy shape.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1 . A tobacco sheet for a non-combustion heating-type flavor inhaler, comprising a tobacco raw material, wherein a cross-section of the tobacco sheet in a thickness direction has a corrugated shape. 
     
     
         2 . The tobacco sheet for the non-combustion heating-type flavor inhaler according to  claim 1 , further comprising a fructan. 
     
     
         3 . The tobacco sheet for the non-combustion heating-type flavor inhaler according to  claim 1 , wherein the fructan is selected from the group consisting of inulin-type fructans, levan-type fructans, branched fructans, fructo-oligosaccharides, and mixtures thereof. 
     
     
         4 . The tobacco sheet for the non-combustion heating-type flavor inhaler according to  claim 1 , further comprising a saturated fatty acid-based additive,
 wherein the additive is selected from the group consisting of a saturated fatty acid having a molar mass of 200 to 350 g/mol, an ester of the saturated fatty acid, and a combination thereof, and   the content of the additives is 0.01% to 3% by mass based on dry matter mass of the sheet.   
     
     
         5 . The tobacco sheet for the non-combustion heating-type flavor inhaler according to  claim 4 , wherein each of the saturated fatty acid and the ester of the saturated fatty acid is a single compound. 
     
     
         6 . A tobacco-containing segment, comprising, as fillers:
 the sheet according to  claim 1 ; and   paper,   wherein a total amount of lignin and hemicellulose contained in the paper is 0.1% to 10% by mass.   
     
     
         7 . A tobacco-containing segment, comprising, as fillers:
 the sheet according to  claim 1 ; and   paper containing an aerosol-generating agent.   
     
     
         8 . A non-combustion heating-type flavor inhaler, comprising:
 a tobacco-containing segment containing the tobacco sheet for the non-combustion heating-type flavor inhaler according to  claim 1 .   
     
     
         9 . A non-combustion heating-type flavor inhalation system, comprising:
 the non-combustion heating-type flavor inhaler according to  claim 8 ; and   a heating device configured to heat the tobacco-containing segment.   
     
     
         10 . A method for manufacturing the tobacco sheet for the non-combustion heating-type flavor inhaler according to  claim 2 , comprising the steps of:
 preparing a mixture containing a tobacco raw material, an aerosol-generating agent, a first forming agent, and a second forming agent;   rolling the mixture to form a rolled article;   imparting a corrugated shape to the rolled article while cutting the rolled article into a strip by pressing a rotary roller cutter against the rolled article; and   adding the fructan to the rolled article, as needed.   
     
     
         11 . A method for manufacturing the tobacco sheet for the non-combustion heating-type flavor inhaler according to  claim 4 , comprising the steps of:
 preparing a mixture containing a tobacco raw material, an aerosol-generating agent, a first forming agent, a second forming agent, and a saturated fatty acid-based additive;   rolling the mixture to form a rolled article; and   imparting a corrugated shape to the rolled article while cutting the rolled article into a strip by pressing a rotary roller cutter against the rolled article.   
     
     
         12 . A non-combustion heating-type flavor inhaler, comprising:
 the tobacco-containing segment according to  claim 6 .
