Cigarette and aerosol generating apparatus therefor
A cigarette for an aerosol generating device includes a tobacco rod containing an aerosol generating material; and a cooling rod arranged at one side of the tobacco rod and comprising a hollow extending in a longitudinal direction of the cigarette, wherein a cooling material layer is coated on an inner surface of the cooling rod.
1. A cigarette for an aerosol generating device, comprising:
a tobacco rod containing an aerosol generating material;
a cooling rod arranged at a first side of the tobacco rod and comprising a hollow extending in a longitudinal direction of the cigarette; and
a liquid rod arranged at a second side of the tobacco rod and comprising an aerosol generating material excluding nicotine,
wherein a cooling material layer is coated on an inner surface of the cooling rod,
wherein the cooling rod includes a laminate of a plurality of support material layers stacked in a radial direction of the cigarette,
wherein the laminate of the plurality of support material layers include an inner paper layer, an intermediate paper layer, and an outer paper layer,
wherein a basis weight of the inner paper layer is about 70 g/m 2 to 150 g/m 2 , a basis weight of the intermediate paper layer is about 100 g/m 2 to 150 g/m 2 , and a basis weight of the outer paper layer is about 40 g/m 2 to 80 g/m 2.
2. The cigarette of claim 1 , wherein the cooling rod further includes a plate-shaped support material layer.
3. The cigarette of claim 1 , wherein the cooling material layer is made of a waterproof material.
4. The cigarette of claim 1 , wherein the cooling material layer includes polylactic acid (PLA).
5. The cigarette of claim 1 , wherein the cooling rod has a thickness of about 200 μm to about 600 μm.
6. The cigarette of claim 1 , wherein at least one perforation is formed in the cooling rod such that external air flows into the hollow through the at least one perforation.
7. The cigarette of claim 6 , further comprising a filter rod arranged at a first side of the cooling rod, wherein
the tobacco rod is located on a second side of the cooling rod, and
the at least one perforation is arranged closer to the second side than to the first side.
8. The cigarette of claim 6 , wherein
a first air flow amount is discharged through one end of the cigarette,
a second air flow amount flows into the cigarette through the at least one perforation along the radial direction of the cigarette, and
an air dilution rate, which is a ratio of the second air flow amount to the first air flow amount, is about 30% to about 90%.
