ABSTRACT:
The present invention provides a method according to which a cellulose rod, at least 11 mm in diameter and formed from cellulosic paper made by the wet paper-making process, that has been treated with a binding agent, repeatedly folded along its longitudinal axis and passed through a heated forming die to provide a coherent rod, is treated with an additive and then pyrolyzed by being advanced through a die maintained at a temperature within the range of from about 500.degree. C. to about 1000.degree. C. in an oxygen-free atmosphere for a total retention time in the die of from about 3 seconds to about 1 minute. The pyrolyzed cellulose rod is then cooled to less than about 250.degree. C. before being removed from the oxygen-free atmosphere. The resulting combustible carbonized rod may be cut to suitable lengths and employed as a filter in tobacco-containing cigarettes or may be used to form a tobacco-free cigarette.
