ABSTRACT:
Chitin, either as such or in toasted form, has been found to be an effective extender and filter for tobacco. It can be used in substantial amounts with tobacco blends without adversely affecting such physical properties as packing ability, burning rate or retention of ash. Organoleptic properties such as aroma, taste and smoothness are little affected. To the degree that chitin is used in the mixture, nicotine and noxious tars are reduced. Mixtures of chitin and tobacco represent new compositions.
