smoking article, method for forming a smoking article and method for producing hydrophobic tip paper

摘要

The present invention relates to a smoking article (10) including a tobacco substrate (20) and a nozzle (30), axially aligned in an adjacent end to end relationship with the tobacco substrate (20). the hydrophobic tip paper (50) is disposed on the nozzle (30). The tipping paper is hydrophobic due to the hydrophobic groups covalently linked to the tipping paper.
