Combustion-free cigarette

Abstract

A combustion-free cigarette includes a sleeve, to the inner casing of which a nicotine solution is applied, in which it is proposed according to the invention that the sleeve is closed at one of its two ends by a partially air-tight draw-in brake and the nicotine solution consists of an amount of 0.8-1.2 mg of nicotine dissolved in 75-105 μl of ethanol, the nicotine solution being applied as an at least partial wetting of the inner casing. The combustion-free cigarette reproduces the properties of a conventional cigarette in its dispensing of nicotine by the nicotine being absorbed in a sufficient quantity from the air flow arising within the sleeve during the customary draw-in process and being available for inhaling.

1 . A combustion-free cigarette comprising: a sleeve, to the inner casing of which a nicotine solution is applied, wherein the sleeve is closed at one of its two ends by a partially air-tight draw-in brake and the nicotine solution consists of an amount of 0.8-1.2 mg of nicotine dissolved in 75-105 μl of ethanol, the nicotine solution being applied as an at least partial wetting of the inner casing. 
     
     
         2 . The combustion-free cigarette according to  claim 1 , wherein the nicotine solution comprises an amount of 1 mg nicotine dissolved in 100 μl ethanol. 
     
     
         3 . The combustion-free cigarette according to  claim 1 , wherein the nicotine solution is applied as an at least partial wetting of the inner casing with a maximum contact angle of 75°. 
     
     
         4 . The combustion-free cigarette according to  claim 1 , wherein the sleeve is made of bagasse. 
     
     
         5 . The combustion-free cigarette according to  claim 1 , wherein the sleeve is made of glass, the inner casing being roughened to ensure a contact angle of a maximum of 90°. 
     
     
         6 . The combustion-free cigarette according to  claim 1 , wherein the sleeve is made of a plastic that can be applied using an FFF (Fused Filament Fabrication) manufacturing process. 
     
     
         7 . The combustion-free cigarette according to  claim 1 , wherein the inner casing that is at least partially wetted by the nicotine solution has a surface area of 500-2000 mm 2 . 
     
     
         8 . The combustion-free cigarette according to  claim 7 , wherein the inner casing which is at least partially wetted by the nicotine solution has a surface area of 1000 mm 2 . 
     
     
         9 . The combustion-free cigarette according to  claim 1 , wherein the sleeve is cylindrical and has a length of 50-100 mm and an inner diameter of 3-6 mm. 
     
     
         10 . The combustion-free cigarette according to  claim 1 , wherein flavorings are added to the nicotine solution. 
     
     
         11 . The combustion-free cigarette according to  claim 1 , wherein the nicotine used for the nicotine solution has a pH value in the basic range. 
     
     
         12 . A combustion-free cigarette consisting of a sleeve, to the inner casing of which a nicotine solution is applied, wherein the sleeve is closed at one of its two ends by a partially air-tight draw-in brake and the nicotine solution consists of an amount of 0.8-1.2 mg of nicotine dissolved in 75-105 μl of ethanol, the nicotine solution being applied as an at least partial wetting of the inner casing. 
     
     
         13 . The combustion-free cigarette according to  claim 1 , wherein the nicotine solution consists of an amount of 1 mg nicotine dissolved in 100 μl ethanol.
